Distinction Networks

چکیده

Intelligent systems can be modeled by organizationally closed networks of interacting agents. An interesting step in the evolution from agents to systems of agents is to approach logic itself as a system of autonomous elementary processes called distinctions. Distinction networks are directed acyclic graphs in which links represent logical implication and nodes are autonomous agents which act in response to changes in their local environment of connectivity. Asynchronous communication of local decisions produces global computational results without global coordination. Biological/environmental programming uses environmental semantics, spatial syntax, and boundary transformation to produce strongly parallel logical deduction.

Mining Heterogeneous Information Networks by Exploring the Power of Links

Knowledge is power but for interrelated data, knowledge is often hidden in massive links in heterogeneous information networks. We explore the power of links at mining heterogeneous information networks with several interesting tasks, including link-based object distinction, veracity analysis, multidimensional online analytical processing of heterogeneous information networks, and rank-based cl...

Learning Aggregations and Selections with Relational Neural Networks

We make an assessment of the expressiveness of relational neural networks to learn different kinds of concepts over relational domains. More specifically, we are interested in the distinction between learning aggregation and selection. This distinction plays an important role with regard to current relational learners as most of them have difficulties to make non-trivial combinations of both. A...

The Saying/Showing Distinction in Early Wittgenstein and Its Implications

 Jafar Morvarid[1]  In this paper, I shall try to clarify the saying/showing distinction and to emphasize the role of this distinction in constructing a coherent picture of language and the world. In order to properly understand the differences between the sayable and the showable, I will throw light on the limits of language and the world. I will explain why it is impossible to say the showab...

Unaccusative/Unergative Distinction in Turkish: A Connectionist Approach

This study presents a novel computational approach to the analysis of unaccusative/unergative distinction in Turkish by employing feed-forward artificial neural networks with a backpropagation algorithm. The findings of the study reveal correspondences between semantic notions and syntactic manifestations of unaccusative/unergative distinction in this language, thus presenting a computational a...

Fractal-small-world dichotomy in real-world networks.

We draw attention to a clear dichotomy between small-world networks exhibiting exponential neighborhood growth, and fractal-like networks, where neighborhoods grow according to a power law. This distinction is observed in a number of real-world networks, and is related to the degree correlations and geographical constraints. We conclude by pointing out that the status of human social networks i...
