Book E Commerce and Intelligent Methods

Download or read book E Commerce and Intelligent Methods written by Javier Segovia and published by Physica. This book was released on 2013-06-05 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers significant recent developments in the field of Intelligent Meth ods applied to eCommerce. The Intelligent Methods considered are mainly Soft Computing Methods that include fuzzy sets, rough sets, neural networks, evolutionary computations, probabilistic and evidential reasoning, multivalued logic, and related fields. There is not doubt about the relevance of eCommerce in our daily environ ments and in the work carried out at many research centers throughout the world. The application of AI to Commerce is growing as fast as the computers and net works are being integrated in all business and commerce aspects. We felt that it was time to sit down and see how was the impact into that field of low-level AI, i.e. softcomputing. We found many scattered contributions disseminated in con ferences, workshops, journal, books or even technical reports, but nothing like a common framework that could serve as a basis for further research, comparison or even prototyping for a direct transfer to the industry. We felt then the need to set up a reference point, a book like this. We planned this book as a recompilation of the newest developments of re searchers who already made some contribution into the field. The authors were se lected based on the originality and quality of their work and its relevance to the field. Authors came from prestigious universities and research centers with differ ent backgrounds.

Book Applying Knowledge Management

Download or read book Applying Knowledge Management written by Ian Watson and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003-01-04 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wholesale capture and distribution of knowledge over the last thirty years has created an unprecedented need for organizations to manage their knowledge assets. Knowledge Management (KM) addresses this need by helping an organization to leverage its information resources and knowledge assets by "remembering" and applying its experience. KM involves the acquisition, storage, retrieval, application, generation, and review of the knowledge assets of an organization in a controlled way. Today, organizations are applying KM throughout their systems, from information management to marketing to human resources. Applying Knowledge Management: Techniques for Building Corporate Memories examines why case-based reasoning (CBR) is so well suited for KM. CBR can be used to adapt solutions originally designed to solve problems in the past, to address new problems faced by the organization. This book clearly demonstrates how CBR can be successfully applied to KM problems by presenting several in-depth case-studies. Ian Watson, a well-known researcher in case-based reasoning and author of the introductory book, Applying CBR: Techniques for Enterprise Systems has written this book specifically for IT managers and knowledge management system developers.* Provides 7 real-world applications of knowledge management systems that use case-based reasoning techniques.* Presents the technical information needed to implement a knowledge management system.* Offers insights into the development of commercial KM CBR applications* Includes information on CBR software vendors, CBR consultants and value added resellers

Book Learning Search Control Knowledge for Equational Deduction

Download or read book Learning Search Control Knowledge for Equational Deduction written by S. A. Schulz and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis presents an approach to learning good search guiding heuristics for the supposition-based theorom prover E in equational deductions. Search decisions from successful proof searches are represented as sets annotated clause patterns. Term Space Mapping, an alternative learning method for recursive structures is used to learn heuristic evaluation functions for the evaluation of potential new consequences. Experimental results with extended system E/TSM show the success of the approach. Additional contributions of the thesis are an extended superposition calculus and a description of both the proof procedure and the implementation of a state-of-the-art equational theorem prover.

Book Action Based Collaboration Analysis for Group Learning

Download or read book Action Based Collaboration Analysis for Group Learning written by Martin Mühlenbrock and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shared-workspace systems with structured graphical representations allow for the free user interaction and the joint construction of problem solutions for potentially open-ended tasks. However, group modelling in shared workspaces has to take on a process-orientated perspective due to the reduced system control in shared workspaces. This text is defined as the monitoring of user actions and the abstraction and interpretation of the raw data in the context of the group interaction and the problem representation. Formally based on plan recognition and the situation calculus, an approach has been developed that incorporates an operational hierarchy for generally modelling activities. The system performs an automatic inline analysis of group interactions and the results are visualized in different forms to give feedback and stimulating self-reflection.

Book Connection Tableau Calculi with Disjunctive Constraints

Download or read book Connection Tableau Calculi with Disjunctive Constraints written by Ortrun Ibens and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Automated deduction is one of the fundamental disciplines in the field of artificial intelligence. The purpose of systems for automated deduction is to find formal proofs for given conjectures by drawing conclusions from formally specified knowledge. Their main strength is that they allow a purely declarative description of knowledge, i.e., procedural information on the drawing of conclusions need not be provided. In combination with the indeterminism in the drawing of possible conclusions, however, the ability to handle declarative specifications introduces the aspect of search into the deduction process. Usually, tremendous search spaces have to be explored in order to find a proof. Successful systems for automated deduction can be built, for example, on the basis of connection tableau calculi. In this thesis, an approach to a more intelligent search in connection tableau calculi is made. The approach is based on the compression of structurally similar formulas given to and derived by connection tableau calculi. Disjunctive constraints over first order terms are used to express the results of the compression. There are two main theoretical results of the thesis. Firstly, it introduces a new class of sound and complete connection tableau calculi, the so-called constrained-connection-tableau calculi, which are compatible with the most important search pruning techniques of conventional connection tableau calculi. Secondly, intelligent algorithms for solving disjunctive constraints over first order terms are developed. As a practical result, the implementation of the approach leads to a powerful system for automated deduction which demonstrates the high potential of the new developments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2001 International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (ICCBR 2001, www.iccbr.org/iccbr01), the fourth in the biennial ICCBR series (1995 in Sesimbra, Portugal; 1997 in Providence, Rhode Island (USA); 1999 in Seeon, Germany), was held during 30 July – 2 August 2001 in Vancouver, Canada. ICCBR is the premier international forum for researchers and practitioners of case based reasoning (CBR). The objectives of this meeting were to nurture significant, relevant advances made in this field (both in research and application), communicate them among all attendees, inspire future advances, and continue to support the vision that CBR is a valuable process in many research disciplines, both computational and otherwise. ICCBR 2001 was the first ICCBR meeting held on the Pacific coast, and we used the setting of beautiful Vancouver as an opportunity to enhance participation from the Pacific Rim communities, which contributed 28% of the submissions. During this meeting, we were fortunate to host invited talks by Ralph Bergmann, Ken Forbus, Jaiwei Han, Ramon López de Mántaras, and Manuela Veloso. Their contributions ensured a stimulating meeting; we thank them all.
