In this paper, we propose a new neural-net approach to learning appropriate control actions. It is not based on the more commonly accepted approach of learning a system emulator and a control-action generator with supervised learning implemented through minimization of errors. Instead, the net observes and records, and adjusts local activation and attention to reflect the frequency of occurrences. Such a net can track the time variational characteristics of physical plants and is compatible with the learning of real-time fuzzy controls.

The authors address an enforcement technique of integrity constraints against transaction updates in a relational database system. Transition axioms have been used effectively in checking integrity constraints for single update statements. The authors extend the idea of transition axioms to a transaction which is a sequence of read and update statements. Integrity constraints in this scheme are simplified without database access before the actual operations are performed avoiding the need to undo an illegal transaction. Transaction partitioning, which can reduce the overhead of checking integrity constraints significantly, is proposed. Partitioning a transaction becomes crucial when a transaction is associated with multiple integrity constraints.< >

A valuable technique during concept development is rapid prototyping of software for key design components. This approach is particularly useful when the optimum design approach is not readily apparent or several known alternatives need to be rapidly evaluated. A problem inherent in rapid prototyping is the lack of a "target system" with which to interface. Some alternatives are to develop test driver libraries, integrate the prototype with an existing working simulator, or build one for the specific problem. This paper presents a unique approach to concept development using rapid prototyping for concept development and scenario-based simulation for concept verification. The rapid prototyping environment, derived from artificial intelligence technology, is based on a blackboard architecture. The rapid prototype simulation capability is provided through an object-oriented modeling environment. It is shown how both simulation and blackboard technologies are used collectively to rapidly gain insight into a tenacious problem. A specific example will be discussed where this approach was used to evolve the logic of a mission controller for an autonomous underwater vehicle.

The authors present the design principles of MCFS, an expert system building tool based on the idea of combining multiple criteria reasoning with the concepts of fuzzy logic. An important feature of MCFS is its ability to handle multiple criteria reasoning by structuring the deduction process into a hierarchy of logical levels. Within each level, the rules are organized into sets of rules and rule set groups. The concepts of fuzzy logic are introduced by allowing uncertainty within each rule, each set of rules, and each rule set group. MCFS has been fully implemented and applied to several domains of knowledge such as computer system selection and procurement, solution of nonlinear simultaneous equations, neck-tie selection, and longevity estimation. Experiments with these applications indicate that, compared to standard expert system tools, MCFS produces expert systems which are easier to build and better match the human expert.< >

This paper describes a modularized ai system being built to help improve electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) among shipboard topside equipment and their associated systems. CLEER is intended to act as an easy to use integrator of existing expert knowledge and pre-existing data bases and large scale analytical models. Due to these interfaces; to the need for portability of the software; and to artificial intelligence related design requirements (such as the need for spatial reasoning, expert data base management, model base management, track-based reasoning, and analogical (similar ship) reasoning) it was realized that traditional expert system shells would be inappropriate, although relatively off-the-shelf ai technology could be incorporated. In the same vein, the rapid prototyping approach to expert system design and knowledge engineering was not pursued in favor of a rigorous systems engineering methodology. The critical design decisions affecting CLEER's development are summarized in this paper along with lessons learned to date all in terms of “how,” “why,” and “when” specific features are being developed.

The emergence of Vision Transformers (ViTs) has marked a significant advancement in machine learning, particularly in applications requiring robust visual recognition capabilities, such as traffic sign detection for autonomous driving systems. But, deploying these models in adversarial environments where robustness is critical remains a challenge. This survey provides a comprehensive review of the integration of ViTs in traffic sign detection and recognition, emphasizing their vulnerability to adversarial attacks and the methods developed to enhance their robustness. This paper also presents a compressive comparison of ViTs in a tabular form for side-by-side comparison.
