Introducing the Logic and Law Corner

In this paper we introduce the Logic and Law corner of this journal. We will discuss a number of ways in which logic has been used in AI and Law, and give some of the key references to previous work on these topics. We will also list some important questions which we see as ready for further exploration. We encourage contributions on these, and other, Logic and Law issues.

Corner validation based on extracted corner properties

We developed a method to validate and filter a large set of previously obtained corner points. We derived the necessary relationships between image derivatives and estimates of corner angle, orientation and contrast. Commonly used cornerness measures of the autocorrelation matrix estimates of image derivatives are expressed in terms of these estimated corner properties. A candidate corner is va...

Strongly nil-clean corner rings

We show that if $R$ is a ring with an arbitrary idempotent $e$ such that $eRe$ and $(1-e)R(1-e)$ are both strongly nil-clean rings‎, ‎then $R/J(R)$ is nil-clean‎. ‎In particular‎, ‎under certain additional circumstances‎, ‎$R$ is also nil-clean‎. ‎These results somewhat improves on achievements due to Diesl in J‎. ‎Algebra (2013) and to Koc{s}an-Wang-Zhou in J‎. ‎Pure Appl‎. ‎Algebra (2016)‎. ‎...

Measurements Corner

This paper describes a statistical signal-processing method for exploiting narrowband bistatic RF measurements to detect and track moving people (hereafter referred to as "dismounts"). In our approach, RF measurements are made by a constellation of narrowband radar units, arranged around a surveillance region. There are several benefits of narrowband radar in this application, which we describe...
