This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neuere Entwicklungen im Datenbank- und Informationssystembereich sind u.a. gekennzeichnet durch die Bereitstellung sehr m{chtiger semantischer bzw. objektorientierter Datenmodelle, um den Anforderungen aus sogenannten Nicht-Standardanwendungen wie z.B. dem B}robereich gerecht zu werden. Daraus ergeben sich unmittelbar neue Problemstellungen imHinblick auf die Entwurfs- und Modellierungsaufgaben, die mit dem Einsatz derartiger m{chtiger Datenmodelle verbunden sind. Betrachtet manandererseits Entwicklungstendenzen im Bereich der K}nstlichen Intelligenz, so wird Fragen der systematischen Entwicklung Wissensbasierter Systeme eine immer gr|~ere Wichtigkeit beigemessen. Dabei spielen u.a. Phasen-Systeme und damit verbunden der Aufbau geeigneter Modelle eine zentrale Rolle. Dementsprechend hat der 2. Workshop "Informationssysteme und K}nstliche Intelligenz" gerade das Gebiet der Modellierung als generelles Thema. Zielsetzung ist dabei, auf dem Gebiet derModellierung Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede von Problemstellungen bzw. L|sungsans{tzen, die in den Fachdisziplinen K}nstliche Intelligenz und Informationssysteme/Datenbanksysteme identifiziert bzw. entwickelt worden sind, herauszuarbeiten. Damit soll gleichzeitig der Gedankenaustausch zwischen den beteiligten Fachdisziplinen gef|rdertund die Zusammenarbeit }ber Fachdisziplinen hinweg verbessert werden.

Book Entity Relationship Approach   ER  93

Download or read book Entity Relationship Approach ER 93 written by Ramez A. Elmasri and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1994-07-28 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is devoted to computational morphology, particularly to the construction of a two-dimensional or a three-dimensional closed object boundary through a set of points in arbitrary position. By applying techniques from computational geometry and CAGD, new results are developed in four stages of the construction process: (a) the gamma-neighborhood graph for describing the structure of a set of points; (b) an algorithm for constructing a polygonal or polyhedral boundary (based on (a)); (c) the flintstone scheme as a hierarchy for polygonal and polyhedral approximation and localization; (d) and a Bezier-triangle based scheme for the construction of a smooth piecewise cubic boundary.

Book Semantic Modeling for the Acquisition of Topographic Information from Images and Maps

Download or read book Semantic Modeling for the Acquisition of Topographic Information from Images and Maps written by Wolfgang Förstner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-05-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acquiring spatial data for geoinformation systems is still mainly done by human operators who analyze images using classical photogrammetric equipment or digitize maps, possibly assisted by some low level image processing. Automation of these tasks is difficult due to the complexity of the object, the topography, and the deficiency of current pattern recognition and image analysis tools for achieving a reliable transition from the data to the high level description of topographic objects. It appears that progress in automation only can be achieved by incorporating domain-specific semantic models into the analysis procedures. This volume collects papers which were presented at the Workshop "SMATI '97". The workshop focused on "Semantic Modeling for the Acquisition of Topographic Information from Images and Maps." This volume offers a comprehensive selection of high-quality and in-depth contributions by experts of the field coming from leading research institutes, treating both theoretical and implementation issues and integrating aspects of photogrammetry, cartography, computer vision, and image understanding.

Book Information Retrieval und k  nstliche Intelligenz

Download or read book Information Retrieval und k nstliche Intelligenz written by Helmut Jarosch and published by Springer-Verlag. This book was released on 2007-04-25 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die effiziente Nutzung der Ressource „Wissen“ gilt als einer der kritischen Erfolgsfaktoren für Unternehmen, doch durch die Informationsüberflutung wird es immer schwieriger, vorhandenes Wissen aufzufinden. Die bislang verfügbaren Suchmaschinen und Information-Retrieval-Systeme bieten insbesondere ungeübten Benutzern wenig Unterstützung bei der Online-Recherche. Helmut Jarosch entwickelt einen Ansatz, mit dem Methoden der Künstlichen Intelligenz (KI) in die Kommunikation mit einem Information-Retrieval-System eingebunden werden. Dadurch kann ein Suchergebnis mit hoher Vollständigkeit und Genauigkeit erzielt werden. Dies wird am Beispiel eines „KI-Assistenten“ beschrieben, der den Benutzer bei der Formulierung seiner Anfrage unterstützt und so das Niveau der Benutzerkommunikation verbessert. Dabei werden einerseits Verfahren der Filterung und andererseits Methoden des nicht-überwachten und des überwachten Lernens angewendet.

Book Cooperative Interfaces to Information Systems

Download or read book Cooperative Interfaces to Information Systems written by Leonard Bolc and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information systems are large repositories of factual and inferential knowledge intended to be queried and maintained by a wide variety of users with different backgrounds and work tasks. The community of potential information system users is growing rapidly with advances in hardware and software technology that permit computer/communications support for more and more application areas. Unfortunately, it is often felt that progress in user interface technology has not quite matched that of other areas. Technical solutions such as computer graphics, natural language processing, or man-machine-man communications in office systems are not enough by themselves. They should be complemented by system features that ensure cooperative behavior of the interfaces, thus reducing the training and usage effort required for successful interaction. In analogy to a human dialog partner, we call an interface cooperative if it does not just accept user requests passively or answer them literally, but actively attempts to understand the users' intentions and to help them solve their applica tion problems. This leads to the central question addressed by this book: What makes an information systems interface cooperative, and how do we provide capabilities leading to cooperative interfaces? Many answers are possible. A first aspect concerns the formulation and accep tance of user requests. Many researchers assume that such requests should be formulated in natural language.

Book Construction of a Concept of Neuronal Modeling

Download or read book Construction of a Concept of Neuronal Modeling written by Marcus Grum and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-25 with total page 896 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The business problem of having inefficient processes, imprecise process analyses and simulations as well as non-transparent artificial neuronal network models can be overcome by an easy-to-use modeling concept. With the aim of developing a flexible and efficient approach to modeling, simulating and optimizing processes, this paper proposes a flexible Concept of Neuronal Modeling (CoNM). The modeling concept, which is described by the modeling language designed and its mathematical formulation and is connected to a technical substantiation, is based on a collection of novel sub-artifacts. As these have been implemented as a computational model, the set of CoNM tools carries out novel kinds of Neuronal Process Modeling (NPM), Neuronal Process Simulations (NPS) and Neuronal Process Optimizations (NPO). The efficacy of the designed artifacts was demonstrated rigorously by means of six experiments and a simulator of real industrial production processes.

Book Process Oriented Analysis and Validation of Multi Agent Based Simulations

Download or read book Process Oriented Analysis and Validation of Multi Agent Based Simulations written by Nicolas Denz and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2014-12-31 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In multi-agent-based simulation (MABS) the behavior of individual actors is modeled in detail. The analysis and validation of these models is rated as difficult and requires support by innovative techniques and tools. Problems include model complexity, the amount and often qualitative representation of simulation results, and the typical dichotomy between microscopic modeling and macroscopic observation perspectives. In recent years, data mining has been increasingly applied as a support technique in this context. A particularly promising approach is found in the field of process mining. Due to its rooting in business process analysis, process mining shares several process- and organization-oriented analysis perspectives and use cases with agent-based modeling. This thesis proposes a conceptual framework for the systematic application of process mining to the analysis and validation of MABS. As a foundation, agent-oriented analysis perspectives and simulation-specific use cases are identified and complemented with methods, techniques, and results from the literature. A partial formalization of perspectives and use cases is sketched by utilizing concepts from process modeling and software engineering. Beyond the conceptual work, process mining is applied in two case studies related to different modeling and simulation approaches.
