چکیده

T his introduction will try to set the stage for the subsequent chapters. We first dis­ cuss a few issues related to the measure­ ment of intelligence before commenting on the understanding of intelligence. We do so because intelligence testing has always been a very prag­ matic job. In an attempt to satisfy the demand for ability testing, the development, use, and evalua­ tion of measurement tools has been a focal activ­ ity of researchers working in the area. In the early years of empirical psychological research, the measurement of intelligence was so success­ ful, with approaches related to its understanding so far from being satisfactory, that the latter was overly neglected for a long period. Following these historical lines, we postpone more recent efforts toward the understanding of intelligence to the end of this introduction.

The Nondeterministic Divide

The noadeterministic divide partitions a vector into two nonempty slices by allowing the point of division to be chosen nondeterministically. Support for high-level divide-and-conquer programming provided by the nondeterministic divide is investigated. A diva algorithm is a recursive divide-andconquer sequential algorithm on one or more vectors of the same range, whose division point for a new ...

Distance Visibility Algorithm (DiVA) Transition

There are three major objectives of this DiVA transition effort: 1) Conduct diver visibility experiments in a range of optical water types to obtain a database for testing and refining the DiVA model; 2) Develop a Monte Carlo model that will be used to perform computer experiments of the DiVA for any combination of water optical properties, environmental conditions, and various types of underwa...

The Divergent Autoencoder (DIVA) Account of Human Category Learning

The DIVA network model is introduced based on the novel computational principle of divergent autoencoding. DIVA produces excellent fits to classic data sets from Shepard, Hovland & Jenkins (1961) and Medin & Schafffer (1978). DIVA is also resistant to catastrophic interference. Such results have not previously been demonstrated by a model that is not committed to both localist coding of exempla...

Process Awareness in Divergence-supportive Knowledge Communities

DIVergence Awareness (DIVA) is a technological framework for management of divergence occurrence in knowledge communities, which is a precursor to the creation of new knowledge in these communities. The DIVA workspace system is aware of the members’ profiles (skills, interests, etc) and their evolution; and as a result, it can deliver custom-made contributions to the members in an attempt to ma...
