We consider the symbol grounding problem, and apply to it philosophical arguments against Cartesianism developed by Sellars and McDowell: the problematic issue is the dichotomy between inside and outside which the definition of a physical symbol system presupposes. Surprisingly, one can question this dichotomy and still do symbolic computation: a detailed examination of the hardware and software of serial ports shows this.

A Class of Nested Iteration Schemes for Generalized Coupled Sylvester Matrix Equation

Global Krylov subspace methods are the most efficient and robust methods to solve generalized coupled Sylvester matrix equation. In this paper, we propose the nested splitting conjugate gradient process for solving this equation. This method has inner and outer iterations, which employs the generalized conjugate gradient method as an inner iteration to approximate each outer iterate, while each...

Direct adaptive fuzzy control of flexible-joint robots including actuator dynamics using particle swarm optimization

In this paper a novel direct adaptive fuzzy system is proposed to control flexible-joints robot including actuator dynamics. The design includes two interior loops: the inner loop controls the motor position using proposed approach while the outer loop controls the joint angle of the robot using a PID control law. One novelty of this paper is the use of a PSO algorithm for optimizing the contro...

Since a large part of Iran is located in hot-dry climate, also the maximum amount of radiation absorbed is done from the roof in low-lying buildings among other facades in summer. And also the maximum area of the outer shell of the building is dedicated to the ceiling. Further, the most energy consumption is devoted to the building, and there is high cost of cooling  in the summer in Iran. Henc...
