Neurons and symbols: a manifesto
We discuss the purpose of neural-symbolic integration including its principles, mechanisms and applications. We outline a cognitive computational model for neural-symbolic integration, position the model in the broader context of multi-agent systems, machine learning and automated reasoning, and list some of the challenges for the area of
neural-symbolic computation to achieve the promise of effective integration of robust learning and expressive reasoning under uncertainty

Turiyam Graphs and its Applications
The single valued neutrosophic set (SVNS) was developed to handle uncertainty in information depending on independent states called truth, indeterminacy and false. Recently, the Turiyam set was introduced for dealing with the uncertainty in data sets when those states are in silent mode based on human quantum cognition or awareness. In this way, this set gives a way to explore the uncertainty in data sets beyond the existing true, false, and indeterminacy regions. The precise analysis of data with the Turiyam set and its graphical representation is indeed a requirement for knowledge processing tasks. To achieve this goal, the current paper introduces Turiyam graphs with illustrations. In addition, we define a complete Turiyam graph, a strong Turiyam graph, and a constant Turiyam graph. Further, we apply a constant Turiyam graph to the Wi-Fi system
The Research of Information Filtering Technology Based on Bayesian Network
AbstractInformation filtering research is currently a hot topic. The screening and filter information is for information according to the predetermined standard classification. The paper gives a use of Bayesian network method for information on the objective of classification, thereby, make the information filtering accuracy obtained improve greatly
Modeling multi-criteria decision-making problems with applications in last mile delivery and school safety assessment
The last-mile delivery option has become a focal point of academic research and industrial development in recent years. Multiple factors such as increased demands on delivery flexibility, customer requirements, delivery urgency, and many others are enforcing to adopt this option. For fulfilling this paradigm shift in delivery and providing additional flexibility, drones can be considered as a viable option to use for last-mile delivery cases. Numerous drones are available in the market with varying capacities and functionalities, posing a significant challenge for decision-makers to select the most appropriate drone type for a specific application. For this purpose, this study proposes a comprehensive list of criteria that can be used to compare a set of available last-mile delivery drones. Additionally, we introduced a systematic multi-criterion, multi-personnel decision-making approach, referred to as the Interval Valued Inferential Fuzzy TOPSIS method. This method is robust and can handle the fuzziness in decision-making, thereby providing quality drone selection decisions under different applications. We then apply this method to a real-life test setting. Results suggest that smaller drones or quadcopters are considered viable to use in urban environments, while long-range drones are preferred for the last mile delivery needs in rural settings
A Survey of Operations Research and Analytics Literature Related to Anti-Human Trafficking
Human trafficking is a compound social, economic, and human rights issue
occurring in all regions of the world. Understanding and addressing such a
complex crime requires effort from multiple domains and perspectives. As of
this writing, no systematic review exists of the Operations Research and
Analytics literature applied to the domain of human trafficking. The purpose of
this work is to fill this gap through a systematic literature review. Studies
matching our search criteria were found ranging from 2010 to March 2021. These
studies were gathered and analyzed to help answer the following three research
questions: (i) What aspects of human trafficking are being studied by
Operations Research and Analytics researchers? (ii) What Operations Research
and Analytics methods are being applied in the anti-human trafficking domain?
and (iii) What are the existing research gaps associated with (i) and (ii)? By
answering these questions, we illuminate the extent to which these topics have
been addressed in the literature, as well as inform future research
opportunities in applying analytical methods to advance the fight against human
trafficking.Comment: 28 pages, 6 Figures, 2 Table
