This paper presents a series of the studies of multilayered learning system for vision-based behavior acquisition of a real mobile robot. The work of this system aims at building an autonomous robot which is able to develop its knowledge and behaviors from low level to higher one through the interaction with the environment in its life. The system creates leaning modules with small limited reso...

We describe a multi-layered behavior based agent architecture which has been applied to the Robocup domain. Upper layers are used to control the activation and priority of behaviors in layers below, and only the lowest layer interacts directly with the server. The layered approach seems to simplify behavior management. In particular it provides an approach for implementing high level strategic ...

this paper gives an account of the implementation of geomorphological, hydrogeological, hydrochemical and isotopic techniques to understand groundwater-surface water interactions in a multiple use area, los padres-la brava corridor (se of buenos aires province, argentina). the isophreatic map reveals a regional flow from the sw to ne sector, and allowed us to define the effluent-influent behav...

The paper introduces the concept of a layered recommendation system (LRS) based on multi-dimensional feature vectors to implement personalized course generation model and algorithms. In this work, we present a personalized course generation algorithm based on the multi-dimensional feature vectors (PCG-LRS) and hybrid applications by content-based recommendations and collaborative filtering reco...

With the development of social network, people start to pay attention to its internal information diffusion and propagation process. However, most state-of-the-art works mainly analyzed single-phased and single-layered network. In our project, we study the information spread on multilayered network. We focus on one specific event the information of the discovery of a new particle spreading in T...

transactions. Depending on the semantics of operations actions can be serialized independent from the calling transactions. The techniques already used in multi-layer transaction systems are extended to object-oriented systems. Object-oriented serializability includes multi-layer ser-ializability but allows a non-layered, more general structure of the database system.

The purpose of the paper is to outline MULTI-PRIDE, a system for supporting multi-layered printed wiring board design. It consists of (i) circuit bipartition, (ii) placement and routing on each outside layer, (iii) modi cation of wiring and compaction, and (iv) routing on inside layers.

This paper presents the development of water-permeable dialysis membranes that are suitable for an implantable microdialysis system that does not use dialysis fluid. We developed a microdialysis system integrating microfluidic channels and nanoporous filtering membranes made of polyethersulfone (PES), aiming at a fully implantable system that drastically improves the quality of life of patients...

Major challenge in automatic image annotation is bridging the semantic gap between the computable lowlevel image features and the human-like interpretation of images. The interpretation includes concepts on different levels of abstraction that cannot be simply mapped to features but require additional reasoning with general and domain-specific knowledge. The problem is even more complex since k...
