Complex objects are usually with multiple modal features. In multi-modal learning, modalities closely related to the target tasks are known as strong modalities. While collecting strong modalities of all instances is often expensive, and current multi-modal learning techniques hardly take the strong modal feature extraction expenses into consideration. On the other hand, active learning is prop...

In AI and other branches of Computer Science expert models are often studied and used. Here we examine experts which evaluate formulas of modal logic. An expert model consists of a set of experts and a domination relation which dictates how each expert’s opinion is dependent upon the opinions expressed by other experts. Such multiple-expert modal models were introduced and investigated by Fitti...

In the study of knowledge representation formalisms, there is a current interest in the question of how different formal languages compare in their ability to compactly express semantic properties. Recently, French et al. [9] have shown that modal logics with a modality for public announcement, for everybody knows, and for somebody knows are all exponentially more succinct than basic modal logi...

the paper investigates into the vibrational characteristics of the truck chassis including the natural frequencies and mode shapes. truck chassis forms the structural backbone of a commercial vehicle. when the truck travels along the road, the truck chassis is excited by dynamic forces caused by the road roughness, engine, transmission and more. modal analysis using finite element method (fem) ...

The goal of this study was to identify inbred rat strains that could serve as useful models for exploration of the genetic basis of aerobic endurance performance. Six rats of each gender from 11 different inbred strains were tested for 1) maximal running capacity on a treadmill and 2) isolated cardiac performance. Running performance was estimated from 1) duration of the run, 2) distance run, a...
