Information and knowledge are transformable into each other. Information transformation into knowledge by the example of rule generation from OWL (Web Ontology Language) ontology has been shown during the development of the SWES (Semantic Web Expert System). The SWES is expected as an expert system for searching OWL ontologies from the Web, generating rules from the found ontologies and supplem...

Small water enterprises (SWEs) have lower capital expenditures than centralized systems, offering decentralized solutions for rural markets. This study evaluated SWEs in rural Rwanda, where nine health care facilities (HCF) owned and operated water kiosks supplying water from onsite water treatment systems (WTS). SWEs were monitored for 12 months. Spearman's Rank Correlation Coefficient (rs) wa...

The project of the Ontology Web Search Engine is presented in this paper. The main purpose of this paper is to develop such a project that can be easily implemented. Ontology Web Search Engine is software to look for and index ontologies in the Web. OWL (Web Ontology Languages) ontologies are meant, and they are necessary for the functioning of the SWES (Semantic Web Expert System). SWES is an ...

This paper presents an idea of inductive learning use for rule generation from ontologies. The main purpose of the paper is to evaluate the possibility of inductive learning use in rule generation from ontologies and to develop the way how this can be done. Generated rules are necessary to supplement or even to develop the Semantic Web Expert System (SWES) knowledge base. The SWES emerges as th...

Currently in most global meteorological applications, the spectral transform method or low-order finite difference/finite element methods are used. The spectral transform method, which yields high-order approximations, requires Legendre transforms. The Legendre transforms have a computational complexity of O(N3), where N is the number of subintervals in one dimension, and thus render the spectr...

The cubed-sphere grid of gnomonic type [ 7, 8] is used in this study. The grid is generated by mapping the six faces of an inscribed cube to the sphere surface using gnomonic projection. The six expanded patches are continuously attached together with proper boundary conditions. On each patch, the expressions of the SWEs in local curvilinear coordinates (x, y) ∈ [−π/4, π/4] are identical. When ...

This paper develops the idea of membership function assignment for OWL (Web Ontology Language) ontology elements in order to subsequently generate fuzzy rules from this ontology. The task of membership function assignment for OWL ontology elements had already been partially described, but this concerned the case , when several OWL ontologies of the same domain were available, and they were merg...

Semiclassical (stochastic) wave equations are proposed for the coupled dynamics of atomic quantum states and semiclassical radiation field. All relevant predictions of standard unitary quantum dynamics are exactly reproducible in the framework of stochastic wave equation model. We stress in such a way that the concept of stochastic wave equations is not to be restricted to the widely used Marko...

Energy estimates of the shallow water equations (SWEs) with a transmission boundary condition are studied theoretically and numerically. In theoretical part, using suitable energy, we begin deriving an equality which implies energy estimate SWEs Dirichlet slip conditions. For condition, inequality for is proved under some assumptions to be satisfied in practical com...
