Face detection is one of the challenging problems in image processing. In this paper we have proposed a new technology named neural GUI based human recognition robotics. This system contains the skin color which is the main feature of faces for detection, and then the skin face candidate is examined by using the neural GUI, which learn from the feature of faces to classify whether the original ...

This paper brings a proposal and general specification of a new project that aims to apply Conceptual Blending (Fauconnier and Turner 1998) as a process of creature generation in games. The project we describe is based on Divago (Pereira and Cardoso, 2003 and should be able to bring novelty among creatures that populate a game. Moreover, it is expected to extend these capabilities to other obje...

In this report we describe a distributed control system for a mobile robot which operates in an unmodified office environment occupied by moving people. The robot's controller is composed of over 40 separate processes which run on a loosely connected network of 24 processors. Together this ensemble helps the robot locate empty soda cans, collect them with its arm, and bring them back home. A mu...

handsome contribution. In Ireland's time the subject was still emerging from the anecdotal and even mythological stage. It is largely due to the efforts of Dr. Tredgold that the topographical outlines of mental deficiency have been filled in. I say topographical advisedly for, despite much revision and the addition of new and valuable material, the book still bears the imprint of having been wr...

some believe that ancient mythological and literary texts solely aimed to amuse and entertain, and were sprouted from their feelings and thoughts, and do not regard the study of the ancient and mythological stories as having the definiteness and clarity which science is known for it. hence, this is why mythological stories in reality convey the beliefs, nature, attitudes and the extent of human...

In this paper, an artificial creature is designed to have its own genome in which a specific personality is encoded. The genome is composed of 14 chromosomes each of which consists of three kinds of genes such as fundamental genes, internalstate-related genes, and behavior-related genes. To represent various types of personality, a large number of genes are needed. In this case, if gene values ...
