A body schema is an agent’s model of its own that enables it to act on affordances in the environment. This paper presents a system for Learning Intelligent Decision Agent (LIDA) cognitive architecture. LIDA conceptual and computational implementation Global Workspace Theory, also integrating other theories from neuroscience psychology. contends ‘body schema’ should be split into three separate...

The International Materials Resource Registries (IMRR) working group of the Research Data Alliance (RDA) was created to spur initial development a federated registry system allow for easier discovery and access materials data. As part this effort, controlled vocabulary metadata schema were developed with contributions from members other experts. Here we describe process, resulting XML schema, l...

Modern geostatistical mapping methods are being applied to various types of data to produce more realistic and flexible characterizations of a natural random process. The Bayesian Maximum Entropy (BME) is a well-known geostatistical estimation method, especially for the use of soft knowledge as well as exact measurement data. Although development in geostatistical methods helps us to solve limi...
