Metaheuristic
Term by definition
Methods that optimize a problem by iteratively trying to improve a candidate solution, given a measure of quality. They make few or no assumptions about the problem and can search large spaces of solutions.
BIOBOTS - Inspiração Biológica e a Emergência da Inteligência
Throughout this paper we tried to study how to reveal aspects of intelligence RMIs models inspired by nature, such as Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) and RNAs. This alone constituted an extremely important and original contribution, because the amount of work in the world that seek to address the problem of searching tools for the development of RMIs, trying to bring out aspects of intelligence through computer models inspired by natural systems is still relatively small. Moreover, consistent definitions for the concept of intelligence, formal languages ​​for describing behavior, learning mechanisms for neural networks are biologically inspired and modular and hierarchical organization of neural networks to implement RMIs are unique aspects that were addressed in this project research. I...
RCSUEX - Certainty Representation of the Exploratory Success
The process involves drilling for oil in their interpretation and decision phase, the analysis of information and a number of factors. A lot of this information is subject to imperfections of various kinds (knowledge incomplete, imprecise and uncertain), which makes this process full of doubts and u...
E&PRiskIV
During the development of Module Neural E&PRiskIII, it was observed that a point "critical" in a good performance Module Neural regarding the ability to forecast total operating time with respect to quality of historical data that are used for training neural network and that are in a ...
Officialy founded at may 5th of 2000, this lab combines researchers of Computer Sciences at various fields such as: Artificial Neural Networks, Evolutionary Computation, Game Theory and Logic. Aimed at studying the cognition emergence by Nature inspired paradigms, starting by connectionism making a bridge between symbolic, connectionist and evolutive approaches of Artificial Intelligence. More than a workplace, the lab intends to be a group of researchers linked by common interests without physical frontiers.
