Artificial intelligence in science of measurements: from measurement instruments to perceptive agencies
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper motivates, from historical, philosophical, and industrial points of view, the adoption of a novel scheme for developing complex measuring systems as perceptive agencies. The general concept of agency, a cooperative multiagent system defined within distributed artificial intelligence and robotics, is discussed together with its particular application to the field of intelligent instruments. An embryonic example of perceptive agency applied to the field of environmental monitoring is reported.

Artificial Intelligence in Science of Measurements and the Evolution of the Measurements Instruments: a Perspective Conception
Measurement techniques always presuppose a theoretical model of the phenomenon under measurement. Usually the construction and the validation of the model underlining the measurement process is based on a priori knowledge. When measurement process concerns complex phenomena, model analysis cannot be only based on a priori hypothesis, but it must be performed continuously. This intelligent activ...

متن کاملClassification of Iranian traditional musical modes (DASTGÄH) with artificial neural network
The concept of Iranian traditional musical modes, namely DASTGÄH, is the basis for the traditional music system. The concept introduces seven DASTGÄHs. It is not an easy process to distinguish these modes and such practice is commonly performed by an experienced person in this field. Apparently, applying artificial intelligence to do such classification requires a combination of the basic infor...
