HYBIS decomposes a problem in subproblems using either a default method or a user-defined decomposition method. Then, at each level of abstraction, it generates a plan at that level using a POCL (Partial Order Causal Link) planning technique. Our learning approach builds on HAMLET, a system that learns control knowledge for a total order non-linear planner (PRODIGY4.0). In this paper, we focus on the operator selection problem for the POP component of HYBIS, which is very important for efficiency purposes.","PeriodicalId":90702,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

This paper proposes a novel watermarking scheme for an image. The image is firstly decomposed by multiwavelet transformation, and then the relation among subblocks in the coarsest level of the multiwavelet domain is learned by a back-propagation neural network, which is trained using coefficients in three subblocks as input vectors and corresponding coefficients in another sub-block as output values. Finally a logo watermark is embedded into the multiwavelet domain by adjusting the relation among these subblocks. Experimental results show that the proposed method is superior to the similar one in the literature.","PeriodicalId":90702,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

The parameter design of the fuzzy controller with nonlinear scaling functions is simple and normalization is also easy for online learning and adjustment in an adaptive fuzzy controller.

In the process of ceramic chip computer numeric control (CNC) grinding, the dimension of the chip tends to get larger and the dimensional error to exceed the tolerance as the number of the machined chips accumulates. There are many factors leading to the occurrence of the error and the law of error variation is very complicated. With an introduced the intelligent self-learning error compensation technique, the CNC system can improve the control strategy to compensate the error automatically.

The ability to forecast browsing patterns can solve many problems that face producers and consumers of WWW content. Although Markov models have been found well suited to forecasting browsing modes, they have some drawbacks. To solve them, we present a new model, Markov tree model (MTM), to forecast user-browsing modes. It aggregates user-browsing information by a tree. By this structure, a forecast model can't generate an explosive number of states. All the forecast process can be performed on the MTM. During the forecast procedure, a recursive process is adopted to handle the problem of low coverage. If a higher sequence can't get a result, a lower sequence may be used. Experiments confirm that MTM can get higher coverage and lower state complexity. It can be widely used in prefetching, link prediction and recommendation, etc.","PeriodicalId":90702,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.

The process includes preprocessing of a time series database and data mining. The preprocessing cleans and filters time series. Then, we partition the time series into a series of static patterns, which is based on the trend (i.e., increasing or decreasing) of the closing price. An information table is formed by the most important predictable attributes and target attributes identified from each pattern. The regularized neural network (RNN) is used to study and predict the data. Rough sets can extract rule knowledge in the trained neural network that can be used to predict the time series behavior in the future. The method combines the high generalization faculty of the regularized neural network and the rule reduction capability of rough sets. An experiment demonstrates the effectiveness of the algorithm.","PeriodicalId":90702,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings.
