This paper introduces a new model of artificial cognitive architecture for intelligent systems, the Neuromodulating Cognitive Architecture (NEUCOGAR). The model is biomimetically inspired and adapts the neuromodulators role of human brains into computational environments. This way we aim at achieving more efficient Artificial Intelligence solutions based on the biological inspiration of the deep functioning of human brain, which is highly emotional. The analysis of new data obtained from neurology, psychology philosophy and anthropology allows us to generate a mapping of monoamine neuromodulators and to apply it to computational system parameters. Artificial cognitive systems can then better perform complex tasks (regarding information selection and discrimination, attention, innovation, creativity,…) as well as engaging in affordable emotional relationships with human users.

The application of cross-linking resin is an effective method for improving and controlling dimensional stability, such as the shrinkage of viscose single jersey knits. However, such treatment often leads to a significant deterioration in the bursting strength of treated fabrics. In this regard, resin treatment using a softening agent can be an additional potential solution for retaining the bursting strength of treated fabrics. Resin treatment is one kind of chemical finishing process that inhibits cellulosic textile fibre swelling during wetting, provides fibre resistance to deformation and prevents shrinkage. The key objective of this study was to model the effect of resin-finishing process variables for predicting the shrinkage control and bursting strength of viscose single jersey knitted fabrics. The MATLAB (Version 8.2.0.701) fuzzy expert system was used to model the optimum resin and softener concentrations, as well as the best curing time for the prediction of maximum shrinkage control with a minimum loss in fabric bursting strength. The optimal process variables were found to be a resin concentration of 75 g/l, a softener concentration of 45 g/l and a curing time of 225 seconds. The fuzzy expert model developed in this study was validated using experimental data. It was found that the model has the ability and accuracy to predict fabric shrinkage and bursting strength effectively in the non-linear field.

—Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are a class of Artificial Neural Network architectures for generating realistic data distributions from a small number of latent variables. The latent variables are typically drawn IID from a Normal distribution and fed as input. Empirically, it has been shown that GANs are able to produce realistic images from as few as 100 latent variables. While numerous studies have focused on modifying the original GAN architecture, few have explored the structure of the input latent variables. In this study we propose placing structure on the input for aiding GANs to converge faster, lead insight into the structure of the underlying data distribution, and produce potentially more creative outputs. To achieve a GAN with such constraints, we call our proposed architecture RemixNet. In RemixNet the latent variables are a result of multiple draws from our existing dataset and " remixed " into a new distribution. This idea of combining existing data into new data is inspired from the artistic and musical practice of collage making and remixes. For example, an artist may take an existing recording of music, modify each with a filter and combine to form a new composition. We show several experiments on the MNIST dataset to gain some intuition on various RemixNet architectures. We also compare empirically RemixNet with GAN and show that the RemixNet architecture converges significantly faster to realistic images.

Área do Direito: Civil; Processual; Digital Resumo: Há aplicações concretas da Inteligência Artificial na área jurídica, tanto na iniciativa privada, quanto no poder público. O Poder Judiciário começa a empregar essa tecnologia em tarefas burocráticas. Mas há a possibilidade de aplicação de programas de Inteligência Artificial para auxiliar ou até mesmo automatizar a tomada de decisão judicial. O uso da Inteligência Artificial no processo decisório deve ocorrer progressivamente, pautando-se pela precaução, e com constante acompanhamento dos resultados alcançados, a fim de se assegurar a construção e operação de sistemas confiáveis, dotados de solidez e que respeitem os princípios éticos e jurídicos. Palavras-chave: Inteligência Artificial-Tomada de decisão-Automação-Processo judicial-Poder Judiciário Abstract: There are concrete applications of Artificial Intelligence in the legal area, both in the private sector and in the government. The Judiciary is beginning to employ this technology in bureaucratic tasks. But there is the possibility of applying Artificial Intelligence programs to assist or even automate judicial decision-making. The use of Artificial Intelligence in the decision-making process should occur progressively, guided by precaution, and with constant monitoring of the results achieved, in order to ensure the construction and operation of reliable systems, endowed with solidity and that respect ethical and legal principles.

The Predictive Casino is a casino that utilizes the latest technological developments to connect with its customers to deliver an exceptional personalized experience to each and every one of its patrons. Today, technology such as AI, Machine Learning, Augmented Reality, IoT, Real-time stream processing, social media, and wearables are altering the Customer Experience (CX) landscape and casino operators need to jump aboard this fast moving technology or run the risk of being left out in the cold.
The Predictive Casino reveals how these and other technologies can help shape the customer journey. The book details how the five types of analytics—descriptive, diagnostic, predictive, prescriptive, and edge analytics—affect not only the customer journey, but also just about every operating function of the casino.
Facial recognition technology can spot a customer stepping onto a casino bus at the Macau/China border and that set off alerts that can notify a host on the floor, a restaurant manager, a dealer, or even the hotel’s GM should the player be a high-end VIP. A whole other sequence of events gets triggered as the player’s favorite table is prepared, his favorite, and his or her Theo gets added to a real-time table games revenue management model that takes into account his personal play. Labor needs are also considered and alerts can be sent to the required or unneeded staff.
An IoT connected casino can make its operations smart. Connected devices can help with inventory optimization, supply chain management, labor management, waste management, as well as keep its data centers green and its energy use smart.
Social media is no longer a vanity platform, but rather a place to both connect with current customers as well as court new ones. It is also a powerful branding channel that can be utilized to both understand a casino's position in the market, as well as a place to benchmark its position against its competitors.
Today, technology moves at break-neck speed and it can offer the potential of anticipatory capabilities, but it also comes with a confusing variety of technology and technological terms--Big Data, Cognitive Computing, CX, Data Lakes, Hadoop, Kafka, Personalization, Spark, etc., etc. The Predictive Casino will help make sense of it all, so that a casino executive can cut through the confusing technological jargon and understand why a Spark-based real-time stream processing data stream might be preferable over a TIBCO one, or an IBM one. This book will help casino executives break through the technological clutter so that they can deliver an unrivaled customer experience to each and every patron coming through their doors.

Artificial intelligence is being touted as a new wave of machinic processing and productive potential. Building on concepts starting with the invention of the term artificial intelligence in the 1950s, now, machines can supposedly not only see, hear, and think, but also solve problems and learn, and in this way, it seems that actually there is a new form of humiliation for humans. This article starts with a historical overview of the forerunners of artificial intelligence, where ideas of how intelligence can be formulated according to philosophers and social theorists begin to enter the work sphere and are inextricably linked to capitalist production. However, there always already has been an artificial intelligence in power in, on the one hand, technical machines and the social machine money, and on the other, humans, making both sides (machines and humans), an interface of their mutual capitalist socialisation. The question this piece addresses is, then, what kind of capitalist socialisation will the actual forms of artificial intelligence bring?

The aim of the text is to clarify why machines are economically productive only in capitalism and therefore in our society are capitalistic machines. They are capitalist not only because they increase the productive power of the capitalist valorisation, but this valorisation first of all is producing these machines, or at least it produces their productivity and hence 'the machinic' of machines. To understand this production of the machinic, we must understand them, as, for example, Heidegger, Simondon or Deleuze and Guattari have shown, from their context: From their non-technical essence, from their connection with other machines and from the social essence of the machinic. But in this context, first of all and in the last instance, we have to understand with Marx their entanglement with the capitalist valorisation. This can be shown for three different types of machines: The physical machine, the calculation machine and the social machine: Money. What all three have in common and almost defines them as machines is that all three naturalise relations by quantifying them. The classical physical machine quantifies the relation of nature, the calculation machine quantifies information and meaning, and the money machine quantifies the relations of our society. I will concentrate on the physical and the money machine only. The technique to quantify is for both the same: Measurement. This quantification and naturalisation by measurement is why both are-although or especially because they are opposed types of machines-interfaces to the capitalist valorisation process, and in this functioning as interfaces, we have to search their non-technical essence.

—Recently, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have become a preferred deep learning artificial neural network of choice for computer assisted medical image analysis. These models are structured as a series of multiple hierarchical processing layers that can automatically learn feature representations from raw images. CNNs have in the past not been in common use, especially in the medical imaging field, due to issues such as insufficient image datasets. The revolution in CNN models has been attributed to powerful parallel processing hardware architectures, increasing number of image datasets and improved training strategies. Utilizing these deep learning techniques are enabling medical experts such as pathologists to utilize artificial intelligence to transform the world of medicine for faster and more accurate diagnoses. In this paper, a two stage model for classifying breast histopathological images is proposed. In the first stage, a CNN is used for extracting features from the images through a feature learning process. The extracted features are then used in the second stage to training classical machine learning models that include the Support Vector Machine (SVM), k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) and Logistic Regression (LR) models. The SVM classifier performs best with accuracies of up to 99.84%.

L’intelligenza è virtualmente inconoscibile: ciò di cui possiamo fare esperienza sono atti, attraverso cui l’esplicarsi dell’intelligenza influisce sulla realtà esterna al soggetto e può essere campionato, in una dimensione intersoggettiva. Come nel test di Turing, ciò che conosciamo sono gli effetti di un altro, la cui realtà (il cui noumeno) resta per noi nascosto dietro un paravento. È dunque possibile, con questi presupposti, determinare se la natura di questo altro sia umana o artificiale? Ovviamente no.
Ma soprattutto, per citare lo scambio di battute tra un umano e un host – avanzato animatrone al servizio dei visitatori all’interno del parco a tema di Westworld (secondo episodio della prima stagione): quando William, l’uomo, chiede “Are you real?” (sei reale?) la risposta è “If you can’t tell, does it matter?”: se non riesci a distinguere la differenza, la risposta non ha importanza.
L’attribuzione di umanità a un’entità dotata di intelligenza diviene un esercizio privo di fondamento teorico. D’altronde molta fantascienza, sulla pagina scritta come sul piccolo e grande schermo, si è divertita a mostrare come nel momento in cui l’identità di un essere creato imita perfettamente quella umana, nel momento in cui la differenza tra umano e artificiale diventa letteralmente impercettibile, la domanda stessa sulla sua natura cessa di avere senso. Ad essere chiamata in causa è piuttosto la fondazione antropocentrica del nostro criterio morale, si prenda come termine di confronto un’identità intesa come insieme di facoltà e caratteri smaterializzati, dai “risvegli” di coscienze nate in universi finzionali, come Solo in Nirvana (Salvatores 1997), piuttosto che emerse dalla matassa di informazione del web, come il Webmind della trilogia del risveglio di Robert J. Sawyer (2009-2011), o dalla complessità di un sistema operativo come la Her del film omonimo (Jonz, 2013). O si tratti al contrario di ricreazione del corpo nella sua precipua fisicità, come quella reificata e sensuale dei droidi di Ex_machina (Garland, 2014), o, ancora, si tratti di creature che dell’uomo assommano entrambi gli aspetti, offrendone un duplicato tragicamente convincente, come gli androidi di Philip K. Dick portati sul grande schermo da Ridley Scott (Blade Runner, 1982) e Denis Villeneuve (Blade Runner 2049, 2017), o quelli di Michael Crichton (Westworld, 1973) rivisitati ora sul piccolo schermo da Jonathan Nolan e Lisa Joy per la HBO (2016-).

The aim of this paper is to define a new methodology that allows the comparison of the effectiveness among some of the major artificial intelligence techniques (random technique, taboo search, data mining, evolutionary algorithms). This methodology is applied in the sequencing production process in job shop environments, in a problem with N orders, and M machines, where each of the orders must pass through every machine regardless of its turn. These techniques are measured by the variables of total makespan time, total idle time, and machine utilization percentage.
Initially, a theoretical review was conducted and showed the usefulness and effectiveness of artificial intelligence in the sequencing production processes. Subsequently and based on the experiments presented, the obtained results showed that these techniques have an effectiveness higher than 95%, with a confidence interval of 99.5% measured by the variables under study.

Introdotto nel 2010, il Guiding Case System (GCS) cinese ha sin da sùbito attirato l’attenzione della dottrina occidentale (soprattutto — seppur non esclusivamente — statunitense), stante la sua assoluta peculiarità. Infatti, benché ad uno sguardo superficiale esso possa apparire un ulteriore indice della progressiva convergenza tra sistemi giuridici e la stessa, usuale, definizione dell’istituto (descritto, con espressione ormai in voga, ma dal significato incerto, come una case law with Chinese characteristics) richiami alla mente la dottrina dello stare decisis, il GCS si discosta tanto dalla tradizione angloamericana da rendere inopportuno ogni riferimento alla stessa; d’altro canto, se esso mostra maggiori elementi di affinità con strumenti di formazione in via amministrativa di precedenti (più o meno) vincolanti che vanno diffondendosi nei sistemi (ormai solo tendenzialmente) di civil law — e, in particolare, con la súmula brasiliana —, neppure riesce perfettamente assimilabile ad alcuno di essi.
La reale comprensione dell’istituto richiede piuttosto di indagarne l’inquadramento nel sistema (giuridico, politico-istituzionale e culturale) cinese; si scopre, così, che esso non rappresenta che una tappa, significativa ma intermedia, di un fenomeno di dimensioni più ampie, e probabilmente di anche maggior interesse comparatistico, in quanto espressione di una tendenza comune a tutti gli organi giurisdizionali di vertice: l’institutional pragmatism della suprema Corte del Popolo (SPC), la cui attività negli ultimi decenni appare motivata, più che dalla volontà di obbedire al Partito o dalla compiuta interiorizzazione dell’ideologia comunista — che pure possono ispirare i singoli consiglieri —, dall’obiettivo di fondo di ritagliarsi un ruolo (maggiormente) autonomo nel panorama istituzionale del Paese e rafforzare « its own financial security and sociopolitical status ». Un percorso lungo e graduale, ma al quale l’intelligenza artificiale, più recentemente, ha dato una spinta propulsiva non indifferente, confermando, una volta di più, che « la tecnologia non è né buona né cattiva, ma non è neppure neutrale » .

One smart speaker to rule them all, one sensor to find them, one device to bring them all and in the Internet of Things bind them. Conversational User Interfaces (CUI) represent an interactive phenomenon that is disrupting social interactions as we knew them. The spectrum of legal issues that arises from these user-device relationships has a wide range of impacts on society. This paper addresses seven legal issues arising from these interactions that affect Privacy and Law concerning consumer protection, profiling, liability, security, neutrality, influence and data protection. It aims to prompt an interdisciplinary discussion between Human-Computer Interaction, legal and Privacy researchers in order to address the lack of regulation around aspects of CUI and stimulate legal, policy and design confrontations.

A significant challenge in object detection is accurate identification of an object's position in image space, whereas one algorithm with one set of parameters is usually not enough, and the fusion of multiple algorithms and/or parameters can lead to more robust results. Herein, a new computational intelligence fusion approach based on the dynamic analysis of agreement among object detection outputs is proposed. Furthermore, we propose an online versus just in training image augmentation strategy. Experiments comparing the results both with and without fusion are presented. We demonstrate that the augmented and fused combination results are the best, with respect to higher accuracy rates and reduction of outlier influences. The approach is demonstrated in the context of cone, pedestrian and box detection for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) applications.

A pandemic is a contagious disease outbreak that happens over a large geographic area and affects a great portion of the population while new pathogens appear for which people have less immunity and no vaccines are available. The disease can spread from person to person in a very short time. Health workers are at greater risk of infection because of patients who are carriers. In the 21st century,where everyone is connected through digital technologies, information and communication technology (ICT) plays a critical role in improving healthcare for individuals and larger communities. ICT can be divided into a wide variety of application domains that signify its importance as a major technological paradigm. It is currently drawing large attention because of its potential to alleviate the burden on healthcare systems caused by the rise in chronic diseases, aging populations and pandemic situations. This study surveyed substantial knowledge on how effective ICT healthcare solutions can ...

Language games represent one of the most fascinating challenges of research in articial intelligence. In this paper we give an overview of WebCrow, a system that tackles crosswords using the Web as a knowledge base. This appears to be a novel approach with respect to the available literature. It is also the rst solver for non- English crosswords and it has been designed to be po- tentially multilingual. Although WebCrow has been im- plemented only in a preliminary version, it already dis- plays very interesting results reaching the performance of a human beginner: crosswords that are ìeasyî for ex- pert humans are solved, within competition time limits, with 80% of correct words and over 90% of correct let- ters.

The use of the agent/multi-agent system paradigm has increased sharply as an important field of research within the Artificial Intelligence area. In recent times, the application of this paradigm seems appropriate for solving complex problems which require intelligence and bounded response times. This paper presents Simba: an architecture based on Artis agents as its main component for the development of real-time multi-agent systems. The Artis agent architecture guarantees an agent response that satisfies all its critical temporal restrictions in a real-time environment. The main feature of Simba systems is their applicability for complex, distributed, real-time domains. The architecture allows the communication among agents taking into account their hard temporal restrictions. In order to show the use of systems of this kind, the paper describes the design of a multi-agent system for the distributed intelligent control of a residential building.

This chapter is a transdisciplinary study on the fundaments of cognition, considering this process at human level as the combination of biological and (multi)cultural values. The main idea is to describe the skill of human beings for using several heuristics for task-solving activities as a process of combining and blending techniques, something that is called here as “blended cognition”. This rich and complex way of dealing with multi-heuristic frameworks provides not only a more adequate model for the understanding of real human cognition, but also it is of the most interest for the design of creative and adaptive artificial intelligences
