This paper presents GTD-POP, a planning methodology based on the Generate, Test and Debug paradigm. GTD-POP’s goal is to achieve a compromise between planning efficiency and soundness by using associational knowledge to guide its search for interaction checks in a partially-ordered plan. This paper describes the GTD-POP and discusses issues involved in evaluating the behavior of practical plann...

This paper explores the potential impacts of introducing real economic incentives in Choice Experiments (CE). While many others have investigated such impacts before, the majority of the literature has focused solely on mitigation of hypothetical bias. We contribute to this literature by widening the scope of research to other behavioural aspects where consumers in CE are often found to deviate...

Approach based on clustering will be described in our paper. Basic version of our system was given in [5] allows us to expand query through special index. Hierarchical agglomerative clustering of the whole document collection generates the index. Retrieving of topic development is specific problem. Standard methods of IR does not allow us such kind of queries for appropriate solution of informa...

This paper contains the rounding error analysis for the Chebyshev method for the solution of large linear systems Ax+g = 0 where A = A is positive definite. We prove that the Chebyshev method in floating point arithmetic is numerically stable, which means that the computed sequence {x^} approximates the solution a such that lim|k is of order C||a||.||A~ \\.\\y\\ where £ is the relative computer...

In this talk we intend to provide for an overview of the uses we can make in financial economics of several quantum physical concepts. We introduce and briefly discuss the so called information wave function. We discuss how the information wave function can be of use in financial option pricing. We then briefly allude on how the information wave function can be used in arbitrage. We briefly dis...

We suggest and analyze a technique by combining the variational iteration method and the homotopy perturbation method. This method is called the variational homotopy perturbation method VHPM . We use this method for solving higher dimensional initial boundary value problemswith variable coefficients. The developed algorithm is quite efficient and is practically well suited for use in these prob...

Having seen a news title “Alba denies wedding reports”, how do we infer that it is primarily about Jessica Alba, rather than about weddings or reports? We probably realize that, in a randomly driven sentence, the word “Alba” is less anticipated than “wedding” or “reports”, which adds value to the word “Alba” if used. Such anticipation can be modeled as a ratio between an empirical probability o...

In this paper, we propose a combined form of the sumudu transform method with the homotopy perturbation method to solve nonlinear equations. This method is called the homotopy perturbation sumudu transform method (HPSTM). The nonlinear terms can be easily handled by the use of He’s polynomials. The proposed scheme finds the solution without any discretization or restrictive assumptions and avoi...
