Directional Navigation Improves Opportunistic Communication for Emergencies
We present a novel direction based shortest path search algorithm to guide evacuees during an emergency. It uses opportunistic communications (oppcomms) with low-cost wearable mobile nodes that can exchange packets at close range of a few to some tens of meters without help of an infrastructure. The algorithm seeks the shortest path to exits which are safest with regard to a hazard, and is inte...
متن کاملCognition is Not Computation; Evolution is Not Optimisation
An overview is given of the role and relevance of Arti cial Neural Nets ANNs as control systems for autonomous agents Though ANNs can be used as computational input output devices cognition requires not this but rather some method of implementing dynamical systems A wider class of ANNs incorporating temporal dynamics and feedback is presented as one way to achieve this These are di cult to desi...
متن کاملP-value: What is and what is not
The misinterpretation and misuse of p-value have been increasing for decades. In March 2016, the American Statistical Association released a statement to warn about the use and interpretation of p-value. In this study, we provided a definition and discussion of p-value and emphasized the importance of its accurate interpretation.
متن کاملCultural evolution is not equivalent to Darwinian evolution
Darwinian evolution, defined as evolution arising from selection based directly on the properties of individuals, does not account for cultural constructs providing the organizational basis of human societies. The difficulty with linking Darwinian evolution to structural properties of cultural constructs is exemplified with kinship terminologies, a cultural construct that structures and delinea...
متن کاملEvolution of Breaking Directional Spectral
Methods used in parabolic refraction-diiraction models for computing the evolution of monochromatic waves in the nearshore zone are used to construct a model for spectral wave conditions. The two dimensional spectrum is divided into discrete wave components and the individual wave components are computed simultaneously in the domain using parabolic models for each wave component. Statistical qu...
