In this thesis, I investigate a hybrid knowledge representation approach that combines classic knowledge representations, such as rules and ontologies, with other cognitively plausible representations, such as prototypes and exemplars. The resulting framework can combine the strengths of each approach of knowledge representation, avoiding their weaknesses. It can be used for developing knowledg...

Humans use semantics during parsing; so should computers. In contrast to phrase structure-based parsers, COGPARSE seeks to determine which meaning-bearing components are present in a text, using world knowledge and lexical semantics for construction grammar form selection, syntactic overlap processing, disambiguation, and confidence calculation. In a brain-inspired way, COGPARSE aligns parsing ...

Early Christian thinkers developed the widespread linguistic cosmology of Roman Mediterranean in a novel way order to advance specific bibliographic project: aligning emergent fourfold Gospel with structure physical cosmos. Employing interlocking concepts from disciplines meteorology, geography, music, mathematics, and astronomy, number figures—including Irenaeus, Origen, Ephrem, Eusebius, Fort...

The question of how human beings are to understand their role in creation is particular interest our current time extreme exploitation the earth and severe environmental degradation. Historically, critiques have been raised against Judeo-Christian interpretation biblical command subdue rule over animals. In all sincerity, then needs be asked what Christian theology has offer response these crit...

Nature in itself is the best example to solve problems in an efficient and effective manner. During the past few decades, researchers are trying to create computational methods that can help human to solve complex problems. This may be achieved by transferring knowledge from natural systems to engineered systems. Nature inspired computing techniques such as swarm intelligence, genetic algorithm...
