The Information Flow Foundation for Fusing Inferences
نویسنده
چکیده
A practical and efficient approach to hybrid reasoning is to fuse different specialised systems that are designed particularly for different types of problems. We provide formal treatments to the fusion of inferences using information flow as the theoretical framework. The fusion of DLand Constraintbased systems is used as an example to demonstrate the ap-

Unauthorized inferences in semistructured databases q
In this paper we study the problem of providing controlled access to confidential data stored in semistructured databases. More specifically, we focus on privacy violations via data inferences that occur when domain knowledge is combined with nonprivate data. We propose a formal model, called Privacy Information Flow Model, to represent the information flow and the privacy requirements. These p...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Seepage Flow through Dam Foundation Using Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics Method (RESEARCH NOTE)
In this paper, a mesh-free approach called smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is proposed to analyze the seepage problem in porous media. In this method, computational domain is discredited by some nodes, and there is no need for background mesh; therefore, it is a truly meshless method. The method was applied to analyze seepage flow through a concrete dam foundation. Using the SPH method, the...
متن کاملOn the Three Forms of Non-deductive Inferences: Induction, Abduction, and Design
Induction and abduction are well known non-deductive inferences. We shall propose that design is also another form of non-deductive inference, and, based on Barwise and Seligman’s mathematical theory of information flow, construct a formal model of non-deductive inferences. We shall show also that these inferences are interpretable each other, and argue mathematical properties of the model.
متن کاملConcerning the Effect of a Viscoelastic Foundation on the Dynamic Stability of a Pipeline System Conveying an Incompressible Fluid
In this paper, we present an analytical method for solving a well-posed boundary value problem of mathematical physics governing the vibration characteristics of an internal flow propelled fluid-structure interaction where the pipeline segment is idealized as an elastic hollow beam conveying an incompressible fluid on a viscoelastic foundation. The effect of Coriolis and damping forces on the o...
متن کاملNumerical Scrutinization of Three Dimensional Casson-Carreau Nano Fluid Flow
This study presents the computational analysis of three dimensional Casson and Carreau nanofluid flow concerning the convective conditions. To do so, the flow equations are modified to nonlinear system of ODEs after using appropriate self-similarity functions. The solution for the modified system is evaluated by numerical techniques. The results show the impacts of involving variables on flow c...
