Computer-Aided Thinking by Mapping Text-Objects Into Metric Spaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a system for computer-aided thinking. We propose the idea of reflecting the mental world indirectly into a metric space to support such human thinking activities as externalizing and forming new ideas. We use a method that maps text-objects into metric spaces for visualizing a user’s thought space structure. Text-objects imply fragments of a user’s idea, which have several keywords given by him/her. Spaces composed of text-objects am configured in the way “the higher the mutual relevance between a pair of text-objects is, the closer the text-objects are mapped”. The relevance values among text-objects are calculated due to cooccurrence of their keywords. Results of experiments with our implemented system, named CAT1 (computer-aided thinking, version l), show that users of the system can get effective stimuli for further thinking in creative concept formation. The paper also discusses the potential application of CAT1 to collaborative work by groups of people. @ 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.

Quasi-contractive Mappings in Fuzzy Metric Spaces
We consider the concept of fuzzy quasi-contractions initiated by '{C}iri'{c} in the setting of fuzzy metric spaces and establish fixed point theorems for quasi-contractive mappings and for fuzzy $mathcal{H}$-contractive mappings on M-complete fuzzy metric spaces in the sense of George and Veeramani.The results are illustrated by a representative example.

متن کاملCoincidence point theorem in ordered fuzzy metric spaces and its application in integral inclusions
The purpose of this paper is to present some coincidence point and common fixed point theorems for multivalued contraction maps in complete fuzzy metric spaces endowed with a partial order. As an application, we give an existence theorem of solution for general classes of integral inclusions by the coincidence point theorem.
متن کاملThe Existence Theorem for Contractive Mappings on $wt$-distance in $b$-metric Spaces Endowed with a Graph and its Application
In this paper, we study the existence and uniqueness of fixed points for mappings with respect to a $wt$-distance in $b$-metric spaces endowed with a graph. Our results are significant, since we replace the condition of continuity of mapping with the condition of orbitally $G$-continuity of mapping and we consider $b$-metric spaces with graph instead of $b$-metric spaces, under which can be gen...
