چکیده

Knowledge that needs to be learned in the workplace may often be illstructured, arising from the need to solve a problem, rather than from a motivation to learn an entire content domain. Existing visually structured knowledge representation methods for education are designed to support subject-based learning. In this paper we describe our conceptual model of collaborative learning which is developed according to constructivist and situated learning principles. On the basis of this model we argue that an activity-oriented approach to representing knowledge is the most suitable for the support of learner-centered learning in a collaborative setting. We derive requirements for our new activity-oriented knowledge representation method which are based on our model of collaborative learning. We describe the method in detail, and apply it to the support of problem-

A knowledge-based NSGA-II approach for scheduling in virtual manufacturing cells

This paper considers the job scheduling problem in virtual manufacturing cells (VMCs) with the goal of minimizing two objectives namely, makespan and total travelling distance. To solve this problem two algorithms are proposed: traditional non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) and knowledge-based non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (KBNSGA-II). The difference between these algor...

Image Classification via Sparse Representation and Subspace Alignment

Image representation is a crucial problem in image processing where there exist many low-level representations of image, i.e., SIFT, HOG and so on. But there is a missing link across low-level and high-level semantic representations. In fact, traditional machine learning approaches, e.g., non-negative matrix factorization, sparse representation and principle component analysis are employed to d...
