abstractone of the methods for communications with various people's culture and art is to understand their views and beliefs as well as possible. in many cases, such beliefs appear in the forms of motifs and pictures drawn on artworks and historical-cultural artifacts; therefore, recognition of these patterns is of great importance in this regard. the meander pattern is one of such motifs ...

Development of a knowledge representation for a real world operable intelligent system is one of the major targets of this project. For an implementation of intelligent system, there are two major conventional methods. One is a symbolic processing based on a symbolic knowledge representation and a logic inference by the symbolic logic. Though it is effective on some logical tasks of intelligenc...

This article introduces a pattern language for security risk analysis of web applications in an example driven manner. The example patterns presented include a composite pattern and three basic patterns, namely a security requirements pattern, a web application design pattern and a risk analysis model pattern. The pattern language is intended to be used as a guideline to capture the security ri...

Underlying symbolic representations are opaque within neural networks that perform pattern recognition. Neural network weights are sub-symbolic, they commonly do not have a direct symbolic correlates. This work shows that by implementing network dynamics differently, during the testing phase instead of the training phase, pattern recognition can be performed using symbolically relevant weights....

This paper investigates symbolic heuristic search with BDDs for solving domain-independent action planning problems cost-optimally. By distributing the impact of operators that take part in several abstractions, multiple partial symbolic pattern databases are added for an admissible heuristic, even if the selected patterns are not disjoint. As a trade-off between symbolic bidirectional and heur...
