In this paper the notion of uniier is extended to the innnite set case. The proof of existence of the most general uniier of any innnite, uniiable set of types (terms) is presented. Learning procedure, based on innnite set uniication, is described.

The principal methods for the definition of thermodynamic entropy are discussed with special reference to those developed by Carathéodory, the Keenan School, Lieb and Yngvason, and the present authors. An improvement of the latter method is then presented. Seven basic axioms are employed: three Postulates, which are considered as having a quite general validity, and four Assumptions, which iden...

Nowadays, in order to reach minimum production cost in machining operations, various optimization methods have been proposed. Since turning operation has different parameters affecting the workpiece quality, it was selected as a complicated manufacturing method in this paper. To reach sufficient quality, all influencing parameters such as cutting speed, federate, depth of cut and tool rake angl...

In many cultures of the Pacific region, self is relational, inevitably and permanently connected to other people entities as a fact existence. Among articulations relationality sacred relational space connection separation: vā. Differences in thinking around vā region should be celebrated, but an increasingly mobile world, wisdom can also honored by paying attention commonalities. his essay, we...

Relational database is a collection of relations. Duplicate tuple existence is common in many real time relational databases. In a relational database, if the same real-world entity is represented by more than one tuple, then such tuples are called duplicate tuples. Finding duplicate tuples and then replacing them by one best tuple is called a fusion operation. Whenever duplicate tuples are fou...

Relational data representations have become an increasingly important topic due to the recent proliferation of network datasets (e.g., social, biological, information networks) and a corresponding increase in the application of Statistical Relational Learning (SRL) algorithms to these domains. In this article, we examine and categorize techniques for transforming graph-based relational data to ...

Studies investigating the question whether contractual and relational governance are substitutes or complements have been based on contradictory conceptualizations and have produced conflicting research results. This caused a controversial debate in the field of IS outsourcing concerning the relationship of governance mechanisms. Thus, the goal of this study is to clarify these inconsistencies....

A data stream is a sequence of time-stamped data elements which arrive on-line, at consecutive time points. In this work we propose a multi-relational approach to mine complex data streams in order to identify novelty patterns which target new or unknown situations in the stream. Multi-relational data mining is motivated by the existence of several real-world data stream applications where data...
