In an extension of Newton’s method to generalized equations, we carry further the implicit function theorem paradigm and place it in the framework of a mapping acting from the parameter and the starting point to the set of all associated sequences of Newton’s iterates as elements of a sequence space. An inverse function version of this result shows that the strong regularity of the mapping asso...

Ontology mapping is to find semantic correspondences between similar elements of different ontologies. It is critical to achieve semantic interoperability in the WWW. This paper proposes a new generic and scalable ontology mapping approach based on propagation theory, information retrieval technique and artificial intelligence model. The approach utilizes both linguistic and structural informat...

An approach to protein structure comparison is presented which uses techniques of artificial intelligence (AI) to generate a mapping between two protein structures. The approach proceeds by first identifying the seed of a possible mapping, and then searching for ways to extend the seed by incorporating corresponding elements from the two proteins. Correspondence is judged using heuristic functi...

Ontology mapping is to find semantic correspondences between similar elements of different ontologies. It is critical to achieve semantic interoperability in the WWW. This paper summarizes the results of the PRIOR+ participating at OAEI campaign 2007. The PRIOR+ is a generic and automatic ontology mapping tool, based on propagation theory, information retrieval technique and artificial intellig...

In a recent publication [Ostromoukhov95], a new image reproduction technique, Artistic Screening, was presented. It incorporates freely created artistic screen elements for generating halftones. Fixed predefined dot contours associated with given intensity levels determine the screen dot shape's growing behaviour. Screen dot contours associated with each intensity level are obtained by interpol...

Decomposable mappings from the space of symmetric k-fold tensors over E, ⊗ s,k E, to the space of k-fold tensors over F , ⊗ s,k F , are those linear operators which map nonzero decomposable elements to nonzero decomposable elements. We prove that any decomposable mapping is induced by an injective linear operator between the spaces on which the tensors are defined. Moreover, if the decomposable...

The Xylella fastidiosa comparative genomic database is a scientific resource with the aim to provide a user-friendly interface for accessing high-quality manually curated genomic annotation and comparative sequence analysis, as well as for identifying and mapping prophage-like elements, a marked feature of Xylella genomes. Here we describe a database and tools for exploring the biology of this ...

This paper describes a case study for the sixth Transformation Tool Contest. The case is based on a mapping from Petri-Nets to statecharts (i.e., from flat process models to hierarchical ones). The case description separates a simple mapping phase from a phase that involves the step by step destruction Petri-Net elements and the corresponding construction of a hierarchy of statechart elements. ...

User Experience (UX) is an integral part of software development, one which web-based mapping. Several factors that affect UX acceptable to users include visual aesthetics, ease menu hierarchy, component layout and display coloring. There are several things not implied in namely the psychological factor user there emotion feeling. This research located at BPKAD Palembang City has purposing 1) A...
