The Artificial Neural Networks method is applied on visual working efficiency of cockpit. A Self-Organizing Map (SOM) network is demonstrated selecting material with near properties. Then a Back-Propagation (BP) network automatically learns the relationship between input and output. After a set of training, the BP network is able to estimate material characteristics using knowledge and criteria...

We study optimal conformity measures for various criteria of efficiency of classification in an idealised setting. This leads to an important class of criteria of efficiency that we call probabilistic; it turns out that the most standard criteria of efficiency used in literature on conformal prediction are not probabilistic unless the problem of classification is binary. We consider both uncond...

In this paper, we investigate the benefits and drawbacks of different approaches for solving a cooperative foraging task with two robots. We compare a classical clonal approach with an additional approach which favors the evolution of heterogeneous behaviors according to two defining criteria: the evolvability of the cooperative solution and the efficiency of the coordination behaviors evolved....
