On Earthquake Prediction in Japan
Japan's National Project for Earthquake Prediction has been conducted since 1965 without success. An earthquake prediction should be a short-term prediction based on observable physical phenomena or precursors. The main reason of no success is the failure to capture precursors. Most of the financial resources and manpower of the National Project have been devoted to strengthening the seismograp...
متن کاملDecision-Theoretic Planning with Person Trajectory Prediction for Social Navigation
Robots navigating in a social way should reason about people intentions when acting. For instance, in applications like robot guidance or meeting with a person, the robot has to consider the goals of the people. Intentions are inherently non-observable, and thus we propose Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) as a decisionmaking tool for these applications. One of the issues ...
متن کاملStudy on Techniques of Earthquake Prediction
An event called prediction in a time series is more important for geophysics and economy problems. The time series data mining is a combination field of time series and data mining techniques. The historical data are collected which has follow the time series methodology, combine the data mining for preprocessing and finally apply the fuzzy logic rules to predict the impact of earthquake. Earth...
متن کاملRethinking Earthquake Prediction
We re-examine and summarize what is now possible in predicting earthquakes, what might be accomplished (and hence might be possible in the next few decades) and what types of predictions appear to be inherently impossible based on our understanding of earthquakes as complex phenomena. We take predictions to involve a variety of time scales from seconds to a few decades. Earthquake warnings and ...
متن کاملOn Decision-Theoretic Foundations for Defaults
In recent years, considerable effort has gone into understanding default reasoning. Most of this effort concentrated on the question of entailment, i.e., what conclusions are warranted by a knowledge-base of defaults. Surprisingly, few works formally examine the general role of defaults. We argue that an examination of this role is necessary in order to understand defaults, and suggest a concre...
