Claude Levi-Strauss reminds us that “the notion of humanity, encompassing, without distinction race or civilization, all forms the human species, is a recent phenomenon and limited expansion … But for major part dozens millennia, this appears totally absent. Humanity stops at frontiers tribe, language group, often even village …” (Finkielkraut 1996, 1).

in this article, regarding threefold nature of iranian culture (iranian, islamic, western) and using descriptive- analytic method, it is investigated about ideas of  shariati, soroush amd rajai on iranian culture to use in fusional approach. shariati emphasized on recognizing awareness of islam with passion and action, the efficiency conscious from west instead of blind imitation, knowing tradi...

Imitative learning has recently piqued the interest of various fields including neuroscience, cognitive science and robotics. In computational behavior modeling and development, it promises an accessible framework for rapidly forming behavior models without tedious supervision or reinforcement. Given the availability of lowcost wearable sensors, the robustness of real-time perception algorithms...

This paper aims to design an algorithm dedicated to operational planning for microgrids in the challenging case where the scenarios of production and consumption are not known in advance. Using expert knowledge obtained from solving a family of linear programs, we build a learning set for training a decision-making agent. The empirical performances in terms of Levelized Energy Cost (LEC) of the...

There is converging evidence that the observation of an action activates a corresponding motor representation in the observer through a 'mirror-matching' mechanism. However, research on such 'shared representations' of perception and action has widely neglected the question of how we can distinguish our own motor intentions from externally triggered motor representations. By investigating the i...

highly significant decrease in the number of GABAergic axon terminals at sites of seizure foci. The decreased number of GAD-positive terminals in our immunocytochemical preparations of epileptic monkey cortex could be explained by an alumina gelproduced loss of antigenicity of GAD molecules. However, this is unlikely since most of the alumina is located in macrophages with slight amounts in ast...
