A new upper bound is given on the number of ways in which a set of N points in Rn can be partitioned by k parallel hyperplanes. This bound improves upon a result of Olafsson and Abu-Mostafa [IEEE Trans. Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence 10(2), 1988: 277-281]; it agrees with the known (tight) result for the case k = 1; and it is, for fixed k and n, tight to within a constant. A previousl...

Introduction During the course of archaeological research completed in the area of Bilad al-Qadim in the northeast of Bahrain in 2001, trial excavations and survey were undertaken at the spring of Abu Zaydan (N26 12¢ 24.5¢¢ E050 32¢ 50.7¢¢).

A logic of diagnosis proceeds in terms of a set of data and one or more (prioritized) sets of expectancies. In this paper we generalize the logics of diagnosis from [27] and present some alternatives. The former operate on the premises and expectancies themselves, the latter on their consequences.
