Expert Systems and Their Cartographic Applications

Learning Systems and Their Applications: Future of Strategic Expert System

“Learning” denotes that a system is capable of adapting to a task, such that when the task is repeatedly performed the system will perform the task more efficiently than on previous attempts. Learning system may incorporate neural networks, fuzzy logic, genetic learning, self-learning expert systems, or a combination of any or all of these technologies. These systems are capable of the self-gen...

Designing a Cartographic Ontology for Use with Expert Systems

The democratization of mapping represents a positive trend for society, however within this movement, little focus to cartographic quality has been paid. The result is often poorly presented maps which fail to convey the information intended. Software packages offer very little, if any, guidance to the user when it comes to offering cartographic assistance such as symbolization recommendations....

Image Processing for Cartographic Applications

Magentotactic bacteria and their applications

Magentotactic bacteria are the types of bacteria capable of orientation in an external magnetic field because of the ability to produce structures called magnetosomes. Magnetosomes, nanometer-scale structures, are present in most of the magnetotactice bacteria. They are intracellular organelles composed of magnetic iron mineral crystals individually surrounded by a phospholipid layer. Because o...
