Functional and Logic Programming
This volume contains the papers presented at the 4th Fuji International S- posium on Functional and Logic Programming (FLOPS’99) held in Tsukuba, Japan, November 11–13, 1999, and hosted by the Electrotechnical Laboratory (ETL). FLOPS is a forum for presenting and discussing all issues concerning functional programming, logic programming, and their integration. The sym- sium takes place about every 1.5 years in Japan. Previous FLOPS meetings were held in Fuji Susuno (1995), Shonan Village (1996), and Kyoto (1998). 1 There were 51 submissions from Austria ( ),Belgium (2),Brazil(3),China 3 3 1 7 (1), Denmark (2), France (3 ), Germany (8), Ireland (1), Israel ( ), Italy (1 ), 4 3 12 1 Japan (9 ), Korea (1), Morocco (1), The Netherlands (1), New Zealand (1), 3 1 1 3 5 Portugal ( ), Singapore ( ), Slovakia (1), Spain (4 ), Sweden (1), UK (4 ), 2 3 4 6 1 and USA (2 ), of which the program committee selected 21 for presentation. In 4 addition, this volume contains full papers by the two invited speakers, Atsushi Ohori and Mario Rodr ́?guez-Artalejo.
Computational Logic: Logic Programming and Beyond
Alan Robinson This set of essays pays tribute to Bob Kowalski on his 60th birthday, an anniversary which gives his friends and colleagues an excuse to celebrate his career as an original thinker, a charismatic communicator, and a forceful intellectual leader. The logic programming community hereby and herein conveys its respect and thanks to him for his pivotal role in creating and fostering the conceptual paradigm which is its raison d’Œtre. The diversity of interests covered here reflects the variety of Bob’s concerns. Read on. It is an intellectual feast. Before you begin, permit me to send him a brief personal, but public, message: Bob, how right you were, and how wrong I was. I sho...
Discovery Science
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Discovery Science, DS'98, held in Fukuoka, Japan, in December 1998. The volume presents 28 revised full papers selected from a total of 76 submissions. Also included are five invited contributions and 34 selected poster presentations. The ultimate goal of DS'98 and this volume is to establish discovery science as a new field of research and development. The papers presented relate discovery science to areas as formal logic, knowledge processing, machine learning, automated deduction, searching, neural networks, database management, information retrieval, intelligent network agents, visualization, knowledge discovery, data mining, information extraction, etc.
Logic, Language, Information and Computation
Edited in collaboration with FoLLI, the Association of Logic, Language and Information, this book constitutes the 4th volume of the FoLLI LNAI subline; containing the refereed proceedings of the 16h International Workshop on Logic, Language, Information and Computation, WoLLIC 2009, held in Tokyo, Japan, in June 2009. The 25 revised full papers presented together with six tutorials and invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 57 submissions. The papers cover some of the most active areas of research on the frontiers between computation, logic, and linguistics, with particular interest in cross-disciplinary topics. Typical areas of interest are: foundations of computing and programming; novel computation models and paradigms; broad notions of proof and belief; formal methods in software and hardware development; logical approach to natural language and reasoning; logics of programs, actions and resources; foundational aspects of information organization, search, flow, sharing, and protection.
Stochastic Algorithms: Foundations and Applications
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Stochastic Algorithms, Foundations and Applications, SAGA 2009, held in Sapporo, Japan, in October 2009. The 15 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 22 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on learning, graphs, testing, optimization and caching, as well as stochastic algorithms in bioinformatics.
FGCS '92
The FGCS project was introduced at a congerence in 1981 and commenced the following year. This volume contains the reports on the final phase of the project, showing how the research goals set were achieved.
Large-Scale Knowledge Resources. Construction and Application
Atthestartofthe21stcentury,wearenowwellonthewaytowardsaknowled- intensive society, in which knowledge plays ever more important roles. Thus, research interest should inevitably shift from information to knowledge, with the problems of building, organizing, maintaining and utilizing knowledge - coming centralissues in a wide varietyof ?elds. The 21stCentury COE program “Framework for Systematization and Application of Large-scale Knowledge - sources (COE-LKR)” conducted by the Tokyo Institute of Technology is one of several early attempts worldwide to address these important issues. Inspired by this project, LKR2008 aimed at bringing together diverse contributions in cognitive science, co...
Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages
This volume contains the papers presented at the Eighth International S- posium on Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages (PADL 2006) held on January 9-10, 2006, in Charleston, South Carolina. Information about the c- ference can be found athttp://www.cs.brown.edu/people/pvh/PADL06.html. As is now traditional, PADL 2006 was co-located with the 33rd Annual Sym- sium on Principles of Programming Languages that was held on January 11-13, 2006. The PADL conference series is a forum for researchers and practioners to present original work emphasizing novel applications and implementation te- niques for all forms of declarative concepts. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: – ...
Foundations of Genetic Programming
This is one of the only books to provide a complete and coherent review of the theory of genetic programming (GP). In doing so, it provides a coherent consolidation of recent work on the theoretical foundations of GP. A concise introduction to GP and genetic algorithms (GA) is followed by a discussion of fitness landscapes and other theoretical approaches to natural and artificial evolution. Having surveyed early approaches to GP theory it presents new exact schema analysis, showing that it applies to GP as well as to the simpler GAs. New results on the potentially infinite number of possible programs are followed by two chapters applying these new techniques.
Nonmonotonic and Inductive Logic
This proceedings volume contains a selection of revised and extended papers presented at the Second International Workshop on Nonmonotonic and InductiveLogic, NIL '91, which took place at Reinhardsbrunn Castle, December 2-6, 1991. The volume opens with an extended version of a tutorial on nonmonotonic logic by G. Brewka, J. Dix, and K. Konolige. Fifteen selected papers follow, on a variety of topics. The majority of papers belong either to the area of nonmonotonic reasoning or to the field of inductive inference, but some papers integrate research from both areas. The first workshop in this series was held at the University of Karlsruhe in December 1990 and its proceedings were published as Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence Volume 543. The series of workshops was made possible by financial support from Volkswagen Stiftung, Hannover. This workshop was also supported by IBM Deutschland GmbH and Siemens AG.
