Phase transition behaviour in constraint satisfaction problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Many problems in artificial intelligence and computer science can be formulated as constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs). A CSP consists of a set of variables among which a set of constraints are imposed, with a solution corresponding to an assignment ...

Internet use and adolescent development: A conceptual model integrating behavioral and contextual theories

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the digital era, adolescent development is deeply embedded in the cyber environment. Despite ongoing debate on the benefits and/or risks that Internet use brings to adolescents in empirical studies, conceptual and theoretical discussion on the influences of the intensity and modalities of Internet use is peripheral.

Modeling and parameter estimation for fractional large‐scale interconnected Hammerstein systems

open access: yesAsian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper addresses the challenge of modeling and identifying large‐scale interconnected systems exhibiting memory effects, hereditary properties, and non‐local interactions. We propose a fractional‐order extension of the Hammerstein architecture that incorporates Grünwald–Letnikov operators to capture complex dynamics through multiple ...

Field-based Fuzzy Spatial Reasoning Model for Geographical Information Systems: Case of Constraint Satisfaction Problem

open access: yesTheory and Applications of GIS, 2005
Humans' representation in nature language about geographic phenomena is usually qualitative rather than quantitative. Qualitative spatial reasoning provides an approach which is considered to be closer to the representation. Commercial GIS software are confronted with a challenge that the software should be equipped with artificial intelligent ...

Designing a successful trading agent using fuzzy techniques

open access: yes, 2004
Software agents are increasingly being used to represent humans in on-line auctions. Such agents have the advantages of being able to systematically monitor a wide variety of auctions and then make rapid decisions about what bids to place in what ...

Synchronization‐Performance‐Oriented Frequency‐Domain Iterative Learning Control for Wafer and Reticle Stages

open access: yesAsian Journal of Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The synchronization accuracy between the wafer stage and reticle stage in lithography is critical to overlay and critical dimension uniformity. Existing iterative learning control (ILC) methods indirectly optimize synchronization via time‐domain errors, failing to balance low‐frequency tracking accuracy and high‐frequency noise suppression ...

Neural network to solve fuzzy constraint satisfaction problems

open access: yesIAES International Journal of Artificial Intelligence (IJ-AI)
<p>It has been proven that solving the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is an No Polynomial hard combinatorial optimization problem. This holds true even in cases where the constraints are fuzzy, known as fuzzy constraint satisfaction problems (FCSP). Therefore, the continuous Hopfield neural network model can be utilized to resolve it.

Migrant success in UK Education: Are there lessons for government social mobility policy?

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The school achievement and career aspirations of 23 sixth form students at a multi‐cultural urban academy in the UK are explored through interviews. The sample includes 16 s‐generation migrants, 6 UK‐born students with migrant parents and 1 UK‐born student, selected to represent a cohort of over 300 post‐16 learners.

Covering the gaps: Teaching assistants, lesson cover, workforce pressure and displaced support in mainstream schools

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the deployment of teaching assistants (TAs) to cover classes in place of teachers in mainstream schools. Drawing on survey data from over 8000 support staff in England, the analysis focuses on the scale, character, reported reasons and consequences of TA‐led cover. The article conceptualises lesson cover as a site through

A Universal and Actionable Measure of Corporate Sustainability for Strategic Decision Making

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Managers require a universal, comparable, and decision‐useful measure of corporate sustainability that can reliably inform business strategy, yet such a tool remains absent in the literature and current practice. This paper introduces a comprehensive and operational metric—grounded in Goertz's Basic Framework for developing social science ...
