Soft constraints are a generalization of classical constraints, which allow for the description of preferences rather than strict requirements. In soft constraints, constraints and...
We present here a theory of motion from a topological point of view, in a symbolic perspective. Taking space-time histories of objects as primitive entities, we introduce temporal...
This paper presents a formal framework and outlines a method that autonomous agents can use to negotiate the semantics of their communication language at run-time. Such an ability...

A pattern database is a lookup table that stores an exact evaluation function for a relaxed search problem, which provides an admissible heuristic for the original search problem....
Attribute reduction of an information system is a key problem in rough set theory and its applications. Using computational intelligence (CI) tools to solve such problems has rece...
