MULTISTAGE ACQUISITION OF INTELLIGENT BEHAVIOUR
B.D. JOSEPHSON, H.M. HAUSERHuman skills are acquired not by a single uniform process, but in a series of stages, as Piaget has shown. We have investigated such a sequential process by taking as an…
A MODEL OF WORD MEMORY BASED ON DISTRIBUTED PROCESSING IN A CELLULAR NETWORK
M.C. FAIRHURST, I.R. PULLENThis paper proposes a model of word memory based on an interconnected network of simple neuron‐like computational cells. Major features of the model are the ease of implementation…
GENERATION OF A STOCHASTIC PROCESS WITH DESIRED FIRST‐ AND SECOND‐ORDER STATISTICS
G. ADOMIAN, M. ELRODA method is evoked which produces a non‐stationary (and possibly non‐Gaussian) stochastic process with given statistics to second order. The method is useful either for simulation…
CHARACTERIZATION OF A LINEAR DECISION RULE
S. TAKATSUThe main objective of this paper is to show an application of general systems thinking to decision theory. The search for isomorphic or homomorphic relations between decision…
A MODEL OF A DOCUMENT RETRIEVAL SYSTEM BASED ON THE CONCEPT OF A SEMANTIC DISJUNCTIVE NORMAL FORM
T. RADECKIA new method of document retrieval is presented on the basis of fundamental fuzzy set theory operations and the notion of a semantic disjunctive normal form. Concepts of semantic…
CONTRIBUTION A L'ETUDE DE L'ISOMORPHISME DANS LES SYSTEMES COMPLEXES, A PARTIR DES SYSTEMES BIOLOGIQUES ET DES CARACTERES EXTRAITS PAR FORRESTER
B. HUETLife is an open system; moreover, it is classically admitted as being a complex system. Isomorphism in complex systems is examined by comparison between structural and behaviour…
GENERAL INPUT‐OUTPUT RELATIONS FOR THE SYNAPTIC TRANSMISSION AND THE POST‐SYNAPTIC INTEGRATION
P.P. NELSONWe complete our general parametric description of the working of any neuron by furnishing a simple model of the synaptic transmission and a general formula for post‐synaptic…
ON FUZZY‐FUZZY TEAM DECISION PROBLEMS
H. NOJIRIThis paper is a continuation of our paper10,11 and formulates a fuzzy team decision problem of type 2. The concept of fuzzy sets of type 2 is introduced to formulate the team…
FUZZINESS AND STRUCTURAL STABILITY
M. KELEMENThe paper suggests a connexion between fuzziness and structural stability. This is illustrated by a classical decision model, viewed from the standpoint of the Catastrophe Theory.
