High-level Information Fusion Management and Systems Design
Scientists and engineers conducting research for military applicationsshare their findings on the semiautomation of the functionalities ofcognition, comprehension, and projection so that machines can replaceor enhance human awareness of a situation. A first volume surveysvarious options for practitioners, and this second volume identifiesoptions that have been chosen by the Technical Cooperation Programrepresentatives from different countries. It covers information fusionconcepts, distributed information fusion and management, human-systeminteraction, scenario-based design, and measures of effectiveness.

Artificial Life and Intelligent Agents
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Symposium on Artificial Life and Intelligent Agents, ALIA 2014, held in Bangor, UK, in November 2014. The 10 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 20 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on learning and evolution; human interaction; robotic simulation.
Deep Learning
Although the ability to retain, process, and project prior experience onto future situations is indispensable, the human mind also possesses the ability to override experience and adapt to changing circumstances. Cognitive scientist Stellan Ohlsson analyzes three types of deep, non-monotonic cognitive change: creative insight, adaptation of cognitive skills by learning from errors, and conversion from one belief to another, incompatible belief. For each topic, Ohlsson summarizes past research, re-formulates the relevant research questions, and proposes information-processing mechanisms that answer those questions. The three theories are based on the principles of redistribution of activation, specialization of practical knowledge, and re-subsumption of declarative information. Ohlsson develops the implications of those mechanisms by scaling their effects with respect to time, complexity, and social interaction. The book ends with a unified theory of non-monotonic cognitive change that captures the abstract properties that the three types of change share.
Artificial Life and Intelligent Agents
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Artificial Life and Intelligent Agents, ALIA 2016, held in Birmingham, UK, in June 2016. The 8 revised full papers and three revised short papers presented together with two demo papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 25 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on modelling; robotics; bio-inspired problem solving; human-like systems; applications and games.
New Frontiers in Mining Complex Patterns
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Third International Workshop on New Frontiers in Mining Complex Patterns, NFMCP 2014, held in conjunction with ECML-PKDD 2014 in Nancy, France, in September 2014. The 13 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. They illustrate advanced data mining techniques which preserve the informative richness of complex data and allow for efficient and effective identification of complex information units present in such data. The papers are organized in the following sections: classification and regression; clustering; data streams and sequences; applications.
From Animals to Animats 14
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Simulation of Adaptive Behavior, SAB 2016, held in Aberystwyth, UK, in August 2016. The 31 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 45 submissions. They cover the main areas in animat research, including the animat approach and methodology, perception and motor control, learning and adaptation, evolution, and collective and social behavior.
Solidarities with the Non/Human, or, Posthumanism in Literature
This volume collects essays written over the last decade by one of the founders and leading figures of the theoretical movement of critical posthumanism. The readings of literary texts gathered here, from Shakespeare, Keats, Camus, Vittorini, Kundera, Haushofer, Atwood, Eagleman, Crace and DeLillo, focus on ‘posthumanist moments’ in which questions of postanthropocentrism and the nonhuman become prominent, are negotiated and ultimately foreclosed. They show how a deconstructively-minded way of reading humanistically-motivated texts can help making these texts relevant for our so-called ‘posthuman times’. In doing so, these critical posthumanist readings demonstrate that literature remains one of the privileged cultural institutions and practices from which solidarities both with and between the human and nonhuman can be formed and negotiated.
Is Early Onset of Alcohol Use Associated with Later Alcohol Use?
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area! Find out more on how to host your own Frontiers Research Topic or contribute to one as an author by contacting the Frontiers Editorial Office: frontiersin.org/about/contact.
Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management
This book constitutes the extended and revised versions of a set of selected papers from the 13th International Joint Conference on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management, IC3K 2021, on October 25–27, 2021. The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 crisis. The 9 full papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 103 submissions. The purpose of the IC3K is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners on the areas of Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management. IC3K is composed of three co-located conferences, each specialized in at least one of the aforementioned main knowledge areas.
