We propose here an extension of Rice's Theorem to first-order logic, proven by totally elementary means. If P is any property defined over the collection of all first-order t...
Abstract. We prove that the homomorphic quasiorder of finite k-labeled forests has undecidable elementary theory for k 3, in contrast to the known decidability result for k = 2. W...
In this paper we propose a model for relevance feedback. Our model combines evidence from user's relevance assessments with algorithms describing how words are used within do...
The concept of relevance has been heatedly debated in last decade. Not satisfied with the narrow and technical definition of system relevance, researchers turn to the subjective a...
In the theory of living systems any description of self-organizing processes is confronted by a very central problem concerning the role of the system's boundary, i.e., there...
