In recent years, there has been increased attention on the possible impact of future robotics and AI systems. Prominent thinkers have publicly warned about the risk of a dystopian future when the complexity of these systems progresses further. These warnings stand in contrast to the current state-of-the-art of the robotics and AI technology. This article reviews work considering both the future...

In 1952, Thompson deened four transformations on extensive games, and proved that they leave the reduced normal form intact (a so{ called \adequacy" theorem). Kohlberg&Mertens, in 1986, proposed two additional game transformations. In this paper, I will state and prove adequacy results for all six transformations in a uniform manner. Then, a number of well{known solution concepts will be survey...

Compositional distributional semantic models (CDSMs) have successfully been applied to the task of predicting the meaning of a range of linguistic constructions. Their performance on semicompositional word formation process of (morphological) derivation, however, has been extremely variable, with no large-scale empirical investigation to date. This paper fills that gap, performing an analysis o...

Björner [1] showed how a construction by von Neumann of examples of continuous geometries can be adapted to construct a continuous analogue of finite partition lattices. Björner's construction realizes the continuous partition lattice abstractly, as a completion of a direct limit of finite lattices. Here we give an alternative construction realizing a continuous partition lattice concretely as ...

Mammography is a not invasive diagnostic technique widely used for early detection of breast cancer. One of the main indicants of cancer is the presence of microcalcifications, i.e. small calcium accumulations, often grouped into clusters. Automatic detection and recognition of malignant clusters of microcalcifications are very difficult because of the small size of the microcalcifications and ...

Automatic Tuning of Data-Intensive Analytical

This study describes an approach for measuring and modelling diffusive and advective transport of radon through building materials. The goal of these measurements and model calculations is to improve our understanding concerning the factors influencing the transport of radon through building materials. To reach this goal, a number of experiments have to be conducted. These experiments, includin...
