Problem solving in the sciences often forces us to rely on a pragmatic notion of truth. An adaptive logic interpreting scientific theories as pragmatically possible was already given in [9]. The logic presented in this paper refers to a complementary view on pragmatic truth: not with respect to theories but with respect to single statements, facts or data. Therefore we rely on Nicholas Reschers...

Hashing plays an important role in information retrieval, due to its low storage and high speed of processing. As effective multi-modal representation learning method, hashing has received particular attention. Most the existing methods adopt fixed weighting factors fuse multiple modalities for any query data, which cannot capture variation among different queries. Besides, there are too much h...

Structures subjected to seismic forces must have adequate strength and stiffness to control inter storey drift in order to prevent damage to structural and nonstructural elements during excitations. Linked column concept for steel structures was proposed by Peter Dusicka et.al(2009) with the objective of utilizing replaceable components that are strategically placed to protect the gravity load ...

This paper describes the seismic performance of a steel frame with additional LYP dampers. dampers provides passive energy dissipation device in structure, it also reduces lateral forces efficient way which is produced by wave. The structures needed design especially countries where activities occur. analysis accomplished FEM and software called SAP2000. only analyzed using numerical simulation...

The biometrics authentication systems take attentions to cover the weakness of password authentication system. In this paper, we focus attention on the multi modal-biometrics of behavior characteristics. For the integration of multi modal biometrics Supervised Pareto learning SOM(SP-SOM) and its incremental learning method for implementing adaptive authentication system are proposed. Key–Words:...
