A Rather Classless Model

The Classless Turmoil

Classless Association Using Neural Networks

In this paper, we propose a model for the classless association between two instances of the same unknown class. This scenario is inspired by the Symbol Grounding Problem and the association learning in infants. Our model has two parallel Multilayer Perceptrons (MLPs) and relies on two components. The first component is a EM-training rule that matches the output vectors of a MLP to a statistica...

Classless Java Interface-Based Programming for the Masses

This paper introduces interface-based object-oriented programming (IB). Unlike class-based OO programming (CB), in IB there is no need for classes. To support state, IB uses abstract state operations, such as getters, setters or clone-like methods. This new way to deal with state allows flexibility not typically available in CB. In IB state (including mutable state) can be type-refined in subty...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
