Schemata have played important roles in logic since Aristotle’s Prior Analytics. The syllogistic figures and moods can be taken to be argument schemata as can the rules of the Stoic propositional logic. Sentence schemata have been used in axiomatizations of logic only since the landmark 1927 von Neumann paper [31]. Modern philosophers know the role of schemata in explications of the semantic co...

In this paper the optimization of additively decomposed discrete functions is investigated. For these functions genetic algorithms have exhibited a poor performance. First the schema theory of genetic algorithms is reformulated in probability theory terms. A schema deenes the structure of a marginal distribution. Then the conceptual algorithm BEDA is introduced. BEDA uses a Boltzmann distributi...

Model integration extends the scope of model management to include the dimension of manipulation as well. This invariably leads to comparisons with database theory. Model integration is viewed from four perspectives: Organizational, definitional, procedural, and implementational. Strategic modeling is discussed as the organizational motivation for model integration. Schema and process integrati...

introduction: although many researches showed that there are several psychiatric comorbidities in people suffering from migraine headache, few studies investigated the relationship between deep psychopathological structures and headache variables. the purpose of the present study was to elucidate the relationship between early maladaptive schemas and three dimensions of headache impact, pain in...

Creating ontological approaches to personalizing queries of unstructured data requires intensive use of XML-based tables and schema. From the legacy design efforts for CSDL to the myriad of approaches to XML schema development including the development of XIRQL , Hybrid XML retrieval and XML queries , the adoption of advanced techniques for unstructured content management is progressing rapidly...

Motivated by a set of converging empirical findings and theoretical suggestions pertaining to the construct ownership, we survey literature from multiple disciplines present an extensive account linking inception foundational naïve theory ownership principles governing sense (body) ownership. The first part examines emergence non-conceptual in terms minimal self body schema—a dynamic mental mod...

Among others we will see that the equational theory of ω dimensional representable polyadic equality algebras (RPEAω’s) is not schema axiomatizable. This result is in interesting contrast with the Daigneault-Monk representation theorem, which states that the class of representable polyadic algebras is finite schema-axiomatizable (and hence the equational theory of this class is finite schemaaxi...

This is the first part of a two-part paper which introduces a general schema theory for genetic programming (GP) with subtree-swapping crossover. The theory is based on a Cartesian node reference system which makes it possible to describe programs as functions over the space N(2) and allows one to model the process of selection of the crossover points of subtree-swapping crossovers as a probabi...

Traditionally, cognitive therapy and the cognitive-behavior therapies have focused on three levels of cognitive phenomenon: automatic thoughts, cognitive distortion, and underlying assumptions. Underlying assumptions constitute the general notion of what is referred to as "schema." Schemas have traditionally served as sort of a template for the way in which an individual views him/herself, the ...
