Atomic, molecular, and optical physics (AMO) is the study of matter-matter and lightmatter interactions; at the scale of one or a few atoms [1] and energy scales around several electron volts[2]:1356.[3] The three areas are closely interrelated. AMO theory includes classical,semi-classical and quantum treatments. Typically, the theory and applications of emission, absorption,scattering of elect...

The representation of narratives of actions and observations is a current issue in Knowledge Representation, where traditional plan-oriented treatments of action seem to fall short. To address narratives, Pinto and Reiter have extended Situation Calculus axioms, Kowalski and Sergot have introduced the Event Calculus in Logic Programming, and Baral et al. have de ned the speci cation language L ...

The theory of distributed conceptual structures, as outlined in this paper, is concerned with the distribution and conception of knowledge. It rests upon two related theories, Information Flow and Formal Concept Analysis, which it seeks to unify. Information Flow (IF) [2] is concerned with the distribution of knowledge. The foundations of Information Flow are explicitly based upon the Chu Const...

Satellite image classification process involves grouping the image pixel values into meaningful categories. Several satellite image classification methods and techniques are available. Satellite image classification methods can be broadly classified into three categories 1) automatic 2) manual and 3) hybrid. All three methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. Majority of the satellit...

We characterize the solution of a broad class convex optimization problems that address reconstruction function from finite number linear measurements. The underlying hypothesis is decomposable as sum components, where each component belongs to its own prescribed Banach space; moreover, problem regularized by penalizing some composite norm solution. establish general conditions for existence an...

We show that each of the three K-theory multifunctors from small permutative categories to $$\mathcal {G}_*$$ -categories, -simplicial sets, and connective spectra, is an equivalence homotopy theories. For these multifunctors, we describe explicit inverse functor. As a separate application our general results about pointed diagram categories, observe right-induced theory Bohmann–Osorno {E}_*$$ ...

A group-category is an additively semisimple category with a monoidal product structure in which the simple objects are invertible. For example in the category of representations of a group, 1-dimensional representations are the invertible simple objects. This paper gives a detailed exploration of “topological quantum field theories” for group-categories, in hopes of finding clues to a better u...

This research examined how differences in category structure affect category learning and category representation across points of development. The authors specifically focused on category density--or the proportion of category-relevant variance to the total variance. Results of Experiments 1-3 showed a clear dissociation between dense and sparse categories: Whereas dense categories were readil...
