Semantic, Cognitive, and Perceptual Computing: Paradigms That Shape Human Experience

Semantic, Cognitive, and Perceptual Computing: Advances toward Computing for Human Experience

While the debate about whether AI, robots, or machines will replace humans is raging (among Gates, Hawking, Musk, Thiel, and others), there remains a long tradition of viewpoints that take a progressively more human-centric view of computing. A range of viewpoints from machine-centric to human-centric computing have been put forward by McCarthy (intelligent machines) [JM07], Weiser (ubiquitous ...

Paradigms of Denotational Mathematics for Cognitive Informatics and Cognitive Computing

The abstract, rigorous, and expressive needs in cognitive informatics, intelligence science, software science, and knowledge science lead to new forms of mathematics collectively known as denotational mathematics. Denotational mathematics is a category of expressive mathematical structures that deals with high level mathematical entities beyond numbers and sets, such as abstract objects, comple...

Autonomic and Trusted Computing Paradigms

The emerging autonomic computing technology has been hailed by world-wide researchers and professionals in academia and industry. Besides four key capabilities, well known as self-CHOP, we propose an additional self-regulating capability to explicitly emphasize the policy-driven self-manageability and dynamic policy derivation and enactment. Essentially, these five capabilities, coined as Self-...

Alternative Computing Paradigms

Single photon emission tomography allows the imaging of dynamic brain functioning. The use of cerebral activating procedures within the scan protocol enables investigation of the mechanisms involved in specific brain functions in health and disease. Activation studies involve the comparison of at least two data sets describing brain activity generated in conditions that differ for the specific ...
