This paper deals with the observability of the discrete mode, the internal state and the input of switching structured linear systems with unknown input. The proposed method, based on a graph-theoretic approach, assumes only the knowledge of the system’s structure. We express, in graphical terms, necessary and sufficient conditions for the generic observability of the discrete mode, the continu...

We have proposed a technique which can be employed within the methodology known as business process reengineering. This technique has been applied in a government project, which included an Information System and Geographical Information System, developed with financial support from The World Bank. One model used in process reengineering is the process model diagram, which helps to find the tas...

The principles of instance based function learning are presented. In IBFL one is given a set of positive examples of a functional predicate. These examples are true ground facts that illustrate the input output behaviour of the predicate. The purpose is then to predict the output of the predicate given a new input. Further assumptions are that there is no background theory and that the inputs a...

Highly structured artificial neural networks have been shown to be superior to fully connected networks for realworld applications like speech recognition and handwritten character recognition. These structured networks can be optimized in many ways, and have to be optimized for optimal performance. This makes the manual optimization very timeconsuming. A highly structured approach is the Multi...
