Metacognition has been used in artificial intelligence to increase the level of autonomy of intelligent systems. However the design of systems with metacognitive skills is a difficult task due to the number and complexity of processes involved. This paper describes a MOF-based visual metacognitive modeling tool named MetaThink. MetaThink has a core based on a metacognitive metamodel named MISM. MetaThink...
Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) favor better scenarios for teaching and learning processes. Personal Learning Environment (PLE) improves the educational process. Under the computational and ubiquitous learning approach, a ubiquitous PLE model (uPLEMO), an example of a PLE design for teachers and its application in courses are presented here. Results of such model were very positive...
In this paper, we explore the capabilities of a sound classification system that combines both a novel FPGA cochlear model implementation and a bio-inspired technique based on a trained convolutional spiking network. The neuromorphic auditory system that is used in this work produces a form of representation that is analogous to the spike outputs of the biological cochlea. The auditory system has...
Tactical planning of resources in healthcare clinics concerns elective patient admission planning and the intermediate term allocation of resource capacities. Its main objectives are to achieve equitable access for patients, to serve the strategically agreed number of patients, and to use resources efficiently. In this paper, we describe a simulation model for an outpatient healthcare clinic facing...
This paper introduces a new ranking method based on an additive multiattribute utility function for multicriteria decision-making problems with imprecise information. Alternative performances are described under uncertainty by uniform distributions, while classes of utility functions are used in each attribute and weights representing the relative importance of criteria are triangular (or trapezoidal)...
