Formal Development of Rough Inclusion Functions

Rough sets, developed by Pawlak [15], are important tool to describe situation of incomplete or partially unknown information. In this article, continuing the formalization of rough sets [12], we give the formal characterization of three rough inclusion functions (RIFs). We start with the standard one, κ£, connected with Łukasiewicz [14], and extend this research for two additional RIFs: κ 1, and κ 2, following a paper by Gomolińska [4], [3]. We also define q-RIFs and weak q-RIFs [2]. The paper establishes a formal counterpart of [7] and makes a preliminary step towards rough mereology [16], [17] in Mizar [13].Institute of Informatics, University of Białystok, PolandAnna Gomolinska.

Developing Complementary Rough Inclusion Functions

We continue the formal development of rough inclusion functions (RIFs), continuing the research on the formalization of rough sets [15] – a well-known tool of modelling of incomplete or partially unknown information. In this article we give the formal characterization of complementary RIFs, following a paper by Gomolinska [4].We expand this framework introducing Jaccard index, Steinhaus generate metric, and Marczewski-Steinhaus metric space [1]. This is the continuation of [9]; additionally we implement also parts of [2], [3], and the details of this work can be found in [7].Institute of Informatics, University of Białystok, PolandMichel Marie Deza and Elena Deza.

Rough Sets Clustering and Markov model for Web Access Prediction

Discovering user access patterns from web access log is increasing the importance of information to build up adaptive web server according to the individual user’s behavior. The variety of user behaviors on accessing information also grows, which has a great impact on the network utilization. In this paper, we present a rough set clustering to cluster web transactions from web access logs and using Markov model for next access prediction. Using this approach, users can effectively mine web log records to discover and predict access patterns. We perform experiments using real web trace logs collected from www.dusit.ac.th servers. In order to improve its prediction ration, the model includes a rough sets scheme in which search similarity measure to compute the similarity between two sequences using upper approximation

Carnap: an Open Framework for Formal Reasoning in the Browser

This paper presents an overview of Carnap, a free and open framework for the development of formal reasoning applications. Carnap’s design emphasizes flexibility, extensibility, and rapid prototyping. Carnap-based applications are written in Haskell, but can be compiled to JavaScript to run in standard web browsers. This combination of features makes Carnap ideally suited for educational applications, where ease-of-use is crucial for students and adaptability to different teaching strategies and classroom needs is crucial for instructors. The paper describes Carnap’s implementation, along with its current and projected pedagogical applications

Basic Formal Properties of Triangular Norms and Conorms

SummaryIn the article we present in the Mizar system [1], [8] the catalogue of triangular norms and conorms, used especially in the theory of fuzzy sets [13]. The name triangular emphasizes the fact that in the framework of probabilistic metric spaces they generalize triangle inequality [2].After defining corresponding Mizar mode using four attributes, we introduced the following t-norms: minimum t-norm minnorm (Def. 6),product t-norm prodnorm (Def. 8),Łukasiewicz t-norm Lukasiewicz_norm (Def. 10),drastic t-norm drastic_norm (Def. 11),nilpotent minimum nilmin_norm (Def. 12),Hamacher product Hamacher_norm (Def. 13), and corresponding t-conorms: maximum t-conorm maxnorm (Def. 7),probabilistic sum probsum_conorm (Def. 9),bounded sum BoundedSum_conorm (Def. 19),drastic t-conorm drastic_conorm (Def. 14),nilpotent maximum nilmax_conorm (Def. 18),Hamacher t-conorm Hamacher_conorm (Def. 17). Their basic properties and duality are shown; we also proved the predicate of the ordering of norms [10], [9]. It was proven formally that drastic-norm is the pointwise smallest t-norm and minnorm is the pointwise largest t-norm (maxnorm is the pointwise smallest t-conorm and drastic-conorm is the pointwise largest t-conorm). This work is a continuation of the development of fuzzy sets in Mizar [6] started in [11] and [3]; it could be used to give a variety of more general operations on fuzzy sets. Our formalization is much closer to the set theory used within the Mizar Mathematical Library than the development of rough sets [4], the approach which was chosen allows however for merging both theories [5], [7].Institute of Informatics, University of Białystok, PolandGrzegorz Bancerek, Czesław Byliński, Adam Grabowski, Artur Korniłowicz, Roman Matuszewski, Adam Naumowicz, Karol Pąk, and Josef Urban.

Rational physical agent reasoning beyond logic

The paper addresses the problem of defining a theoretical physical agent framework that satisfies practical requirements of programmability by non-programmer engineers and at the same time permitting fast realtime operation of agents on digital computer networks. The objective of the new framework is to enable the satisfaction of performance requirements on autonomous vehicles and robots in space exploration, deep underwater exploration, defense reconnaissance, automated manufacturing and household automation

Lifting GIS Maps into Strong Geometric Context for Scene Understanding

Contextual information can have a substantial impact on the performance of visual tasks such as semantic segmentation, object detection, and geometric estimation. Data stored in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) offers a rich source of contextual information that has been largely untapped by computer vision. We propose to leverage such information for scene understanding by combining GIS resources with large sets of unorganized photographs using Structure from Motion (SfM) techniques. We present a pipeline to quickly generate strong 3D geometric priors from 2D GIS data using SfM models aligned with minimal user input. Given an image resectioned against this model, we generate robust predictions of depth, surface normals, and semantic labels. We show that the precision of the predicted geometry is substantially more accurate other single-image depth estimation methods. We then demonstrate the utility of these contextual constraints for re-scoring pedestrian detections, and use these GIS contextual features alongside object detection score maps to improve a CRF-based semantic segmentation framework, boosting accuracy over baseline models

Prediction of Banks Financial Distress

In this research we conduct a comprehensive review on the existing literature of prediction techniques that have been used to assist on prediction of the bank distress. We categorized the review results on the groups depending on the prediction techniques method, our categorization started by firstly using time factors of the founded literature, so we mark the literature founded in the period (1990-2010) as history of prediction techniques, and after this period until 2013 as recent prediction techniques and then presented the strengths and weaknesses of both. We came out by the fact that there was no specific type fit with all bank distress issue although we found that intelligent hybrid techniques considered the most candidates methods in term of accuracy and reputatio

Fuzzy Logic in Clinical Practice Decision Support Systems

Computerized clinical guidelines can provide significant benefits to health outcomes and costs, however, their effective implementation presents significant problems. Vagueness and ambiguity inherent in natural (textual) clinical guidelines is not readily amenable to formulating automated alerts or advice. Fuzzy logic allows us to formalize the treatment of vagueness in a decision support architecture. This paper discusses sources of fuzziness in clinical practice guidelines. We consider how fuzzy logic can be applied and give a set of heuristics for the clinical guideline knowledge engineer for addressing uncertainty in practice guidelines. We describe the specific applicability of fuzzy logic to the decision support behavior of Care Plan On-Line, an intranet-based chronic care planning system for General Practitioners
