Rationality in animal behavior: An illustration involving categorization and associative learning
(Keio University Press, 2009)
Benefits and complications arise when animal behavior is seen through a ‘rationality’ point of view. First, we refer to diverse ways in which the notion of rationality may play a heuristic role in driving both mechanistic ...
Modelling, simulation and control of flexible multibody systems
(Springer, 2009)
This chapter concerns the dynamic analysis of flexible multibody systems. After a brief review of the inertial frame, the corotational frame and the floating frame approaches, a general simulation framework is presented ...
Intercultural citizenship as an opportunity for bottom-up intercultural dialogue internationalisation in South America
(Routledge, 2020)
This chapter argues that intercultural citizenship pedagogy (Byram, 2014; Byram et.al., 2017) can be considered an example of internationalisation in Higher Education from an educational and intercultural dialogue perspective. ...
Molecular Markers Applied to Conservation Genetics of American Crocodilians
(Springer, 2020)
The subject of this chapter is addressed seeking to establish a balanced relationship of deepening, trying to be interesting for those who are looking for information on molecular markers, while not intending to be too ...
Simulating the Past for Understanding the Present. A Critical Review
(Springer, 2016)
This introductory essay aims to introduce the chapters in the book presenting some aspects of the theoretical and conceptual framework necessary to consider the advantages computer simulation techniques and technologies ...
Tensor methods for low-level vision
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2021)
Low-level vision is a processing system that plays an important role in human as well as in machine visual pattern recognition. It is often used to refer to information processing based on local visual features such as ...
Modelling of Photo-Fenton Solar Reactors for Environmental Applications
(Springer, 2013)
A proposal for modelling photo-Fenton reactors for water pollution remediation is presented. Reactor models, based on chemical reaction engineering principles and radiative energy transport fundamentals in homogeneous ...
Structural Synthesis of Hands for Grasping and Manipulation Tasks
(Springer, 2018)
In the kinematic synthesis of multi-fingered robotic hands for a specific task, the selection of the hand topology is an important step. Considerable research efforts have been directed to the structural synthesis of hand ...
Continuous Optimization in Aerospace Structures
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2010)
In structural design optimization, engineers and designers aim to obtain more efficient designs with regards to weight, stiffness and frequency measures, for a given set of design variables. These design variables can be ...
Decomposition Methods for Machine Learning with Small, Incomplete or Noisy Datasets
(MDPI, 2021)
In many machine learning applications, measurements are sometimes incomplete or noisy resulting in missing features. In other cases, and for different reasons, the datasets are originally small, and therefore, more data ...
