Prototype theory and compositionality

Cognition, 1995
Osherson and Smith (1981, Cognition, 11, 237-262) discuss a number of problems which arise for a prototype-based account of the meanings of simple and complex concepts. Assuming that concept combination in such a theory is to be analyzed in terms of fuzzy logic, they show that some complex concepts inevitably get assigned the wrong meanings.

Generative Graph Prototypes from Information Theory

IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 2015
In this paper we present a method for constructing a generative prototype for a set of graphs by adopting a minimum description length approach. The method is posed in terms of learning a generative supergraph model from which the new samples can be obtained by an appropriate sampling mechanism.

Fuzzy sets and Prototype Theory

Review of Cognitive Linguistics, 2014
Prototype Theory offers one of the most accepted models for semantic memory organization. Lexical availability trials provide investigators with a faster and easier means of observing this cognitive organization, since lists of available lexicon are generated from associations relating some lexical elements with others.

Prototype Theory for Learning

2014
Assume that X is the input variable defined on the domain ℝ k , and Y is the output variable defined on the domain ℝ. Now assume that we have a training data set DB = {(x j 1 ,…, x j k ,y j ) : j = 1,…, N}. We now consider how to derive a linguistic rule base from this training data set, which can fit this training data set accurately and at the same ...

The Prototype Resemblance Theory of Disease

Journal of Medicine and Philosophy, 2008
In a previous paper the concept of disease was fuzzy-logically analyzed and a sketch was given of a prototype resemblance theory of disease (Sadegh-Zadeh (2000). J. Med. Philos., 25:605-38). This theory is outlined in the present paper. It demonstrates what it means to say that the concept of disease is a nonclassical one and, therefore, not amenable ...

A Bi-Prototype Theory of Facial Attractiveness

Neural Computation, 2009
The attractiveness of human faces can be predicted with a high degree of accuracy if we represent the faces as feature vectors and compute their relative distances from two prototypes: the average of attractive faces and the average of unattractive faces.

MIMO communication theory, algorithms, and prototyping

2012 20th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU), 2012
This tutorial will present a brief overview of MIMO fundamentals, including information theory basics, space-time coding, spatial multiplexing, multiuser MIMO, and MIMO interference alignment. Owing to their great promise, MIMO systems have found their way in several standards for future wireless communications systems, especially for wireless local ...

Prototyping database functions using type theory

Proceedings of TENCON '93. IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Computers, Communications and Automation, 2002
Database researchers have viewed prototyping as an effective method of investigating new concepts and techniques. However most well known prototypes have been substantial software development projects that involve several man years of effort. We discuss a relatively inexpensive method of prototyping database structures and concepts using the sound ...
