One of the key methods of ensuring effectiveness and actionability of military intelligence is “Red Teaming”. Red Teaming involves questioning the conventional analyst-driven military intelligence constructs. This paper proposes a new Red teaming approach based on Neutrosophic Cognitive Mapping, that helps combine various multi-disciplinary intelligence inputs in a non-linear and complex manner...

This paper discusses how cognitive maps might be analyzed for the purpose of structuring problems or issues. The paper suggests what the various analysis methods imply for an operational research practitioner when helping a client work on a ‘‘messy’’ issue or problem. 2003 Published by Elsevier B.V.

Some models of dynamic cognitive maps with linearly ordered qualitative scales of factors values are considered. Notions of vague values and increments in such scales and operations with them are defined. Main effects of behaviour in these models are described. Sources and forms of decrease of data certainty in these models, the means of monitoring of this phenomenon, limits of the modelling pr...

The development of a novel soft computing approach to model the supervisor of manufacturing systems is described, it is named Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs) and it is used to model the behaviour of complex systems. Fuzzy cognitive maps combine characteristics of both fuzzy logic and neural networks. The description and the construction of fuzzy cognitive maps are examined, a new methodology for de...

This paper focus on the comparison between Rule Based Fuzzy Cognitive Maps and Fuzzy Cognitive Maps. The paper shows FCM limitations to represent nonmonotonic non-symmetric causal relations, presents results that exhibit the stability of RBFCM in systems where FCM is not stable due to its non-fuzzy inherent nature and presents RBFCM potential to model qualitative real-world dynamic systems.

This paper describes the architecture for a virtual agent and the implementation of its Affection Module. A novel affective model is proposed based on Probabilistic Fuzzy Cognitive Map to simulate the emotion transferring stimulated process, and the corresponding algorithm is presented. To testify the reasonableness and effectiveness of the affective model, we simulate by MATLAB and the give a ...

In this short note we give an overview of our research concerning cartography on the Web and its challenges. We present a mathematical formalism to capture the notion of map on the Web, which allows to automatize the construction of maps.
