A study of operator and parameter choices in non-revisiting genetic algorithm [PDF]
We study empirically the effects of operator and parameter choices on the performance of the non-revisiting genetic algorithm (NrGA). For a suite of 14 benchmark functions that include both uni-modal and multi-modal functions, it is found that NrGA is ...

On the Semantics of Imperatives in Persian [PDF]
The present paper aims to analyze the imperatives in Persian form a formal semantics viewpoint. Basically, as well as the ‘directive’ meaning as their default reading, the imperatives express a variety of other illocutionary forces.

Topos Semantics for Higher-Order Modal Logic [PDF]
We define the notion of a model of higher-order modal logic in an arbitrary elementary topos $\mathcal{E}$. In contrast to the well-known interpretation of (non-modal) higher-order logic, the type of propositions is not interpreted by the subobject ...

Dretske on Closure of Knowledge and Its Rereading in Justification Logic [PDF]
The K axiom in the logic of knowledge expresses this epistemological approach that knowledge is closed under known implications. For Dretske, for two reasons, the closure of knowledge cannot be tautology: first, the knowledge operator does not penetrate ...

Post Completeness in Congruential Modal Logics [PDF]
Well-known results due to David Makinson show that there are exactly two Post complete normal modal logics, that in both of them, the modal operator is truth-functional, and that every consistent normal modal logic can be extended to at least one of them.

Indicative Conditionals and Dynamic Epistemic Logic [PDF]
Recent ideas about epistemic modals and indicative conditionals in formal semantics have significant overlap with ideas in modal logic and dynamic epistemic logic.

Modal dependent type theory and dependent right adjoints [PDF]
In recent years we have seen several new models of dependent type theory extended with some form of modal necessity operator, including nominal type theory, guarded and clocked type theory, and spatial and cohesive type theory.

Iconic Gestures for Robot Avatars, Recognition and Integration with Speech
Co-verbal gestures are an important part of human communication, improving its efficiency and efficacy for information conveyance. One possible means by which such multi-modal communication might be realised remotely is through the use of a tele-operated

Logical Step-Indexed Logical Relations [PDF]
Appel and McAllester's "step-indexed" logical relations have proven to be a simple and effective technique for reasoning about programs in languages with semantically interesting types, such as general recursive types and general reference types. However,

Scopes and Limits of Modality in Quantum Mechanics [PDF]
We develop an algebraic frame for the simultaneous treatment of actual and possible properties of quantum systems. We show that, in spite of the fact that the language is enriched with the addition of a modal operator to the orthomodular structure ...
