In this paper, we introduce the notion of fuzzy associative I-ideals in an IS-algebra with respect to a t-conorm and investigate some of its properties. We discuss the properties of homomorphic image and inverse image of S-fuzzy associative I-ideals in an IS-algebras. Relationship between T -fuzzy associative I-ideals and S-fuzzy fuzzy associative Iideals of an IS-algebra is introduced. Connect...

Associative classification is a new classification approach integrating association mining and classification. It becomes a significant tool for knowledge discovery and data mining. This paper presents a critical overview of certain aspects on modelling associative classifiers including event association mining, computational complexity in mining associations, methods of constructing associativ...

We propose an associative mechanism for adaptive generation of problems in intelligent tutors. Our evaluations of the tutors that use associative adaptation for problem sequencing show that 1) associative adaptation targets concepts less well understood by students; and 2) associative adaptation helps students learn with fewer practice problems. Apart from being domainindependent, the advantage...

Much attention has focused on the hypothesis that there is enhanced plasticity of sensorimotor circuits in patients with dystonia. A common experimental method to assess plasticity in dystonia research is paired associative stimulation (PAS). Excessive, nonfocal effects of PAS were observed in early studies of dystonia; however, these large effects have not been uniformly replicated. In this vi...

The effects of repeating a task-irrelevant element and inserting intervening trials between the last prime and the probe trial in a negative priming study were compared with a standard prime/probe pair. An associative model based on SAC (e.g. Reder & Schunn, 1996; Schunn, Reder, Nhouyvanisvong, Richards, & Stroffolino, 1997) was able to account for both the decrease in response times across the...

We present several results for the periods of periodic points of sup-norm nonexpansive maps. In particular, we show that the period of each periodic point of a sup-norm non-expansive map f : M → M , where M ⊂ R, is at most maxk 2 ( n k ) . This upper bound is smaller than 3 and improves the previously known bounds. Further, we consider a special class of sup-norm non-expansive maps, namely topi...

The hippocampus plays a prominent role in associative memory by supporting relational binding and recollection processes. Structural atrophy in the hippocampus is likely to induce associative memory deficits in older adults. Previous studies have primarily focused on average age-related differences in hippocampal structure and memory performance. To date, however, it remains unclear whether ind...

This paper explains and models selected associative processes that take place in biological associative neural systems. Such associative systems allow us to form, expand, and exploit knowledge in a humanlike way. They trigger artificial associations for previously trained and even new contexts taking into account the previous states of neurons of such systems, which are necessary for associativ...
