Paul Scharre* Much of the debate on autonomous weapons presumes a choice between human versus autonomous decision-making over targeting and engagement decisions. In fact, in many situations, human-machine teaming in engagement decisions will not only be possible but preferable. Hybrid human-machine cognitive architectures will be able to leverage the precision and reliability of automation ...

Peter Konchak ’21, Law & Public Policy Scholar August 30, 2021 marked the end of nearly two decades of continuous U.S. military involvement in Afghanistan. A little more than two weeks after Taliban militants seized the Afghan capital, Kabul, following a rapid offensive and the wholesale collapse of the Afghan security forces, the last U.S. military forces in Afghanistan completed their ...

In the discussions on the limitation of Artificial Intelligence (AI), there are three major misconceptions, which identify an AI system with an ax-iomatic system, a Turing machine, and a system with a model-theoretic se-mantics, respectively. Though these three notions can be used to describe a computer system for certain purposes, they are not always the proper theoretical notions when an AI ...

NARS utilises the Non-Axiomatic Logic (NAL) [9] for inference and the Nars-ese language for representing statements. The language and the logic are outside the scope of this document. The aim of this paper is to describe the current implementation of NARS in detail. The following aspects of the implementa-tion are focused on: memory management with concept centric processing, non-deterministic ...

In contrast, radio-map methods [3]–[5], [7]–[9] could achieve a fine-grained localization accuracy by matching the real-time RSS with the pre-obtained radio-map, and have been extensively studied and become the preferred approach recent years. cost when the localization environment changes from one area to other areas.

Introduction The phenomenon of infiltration in natural soils represents an im-portant component in the hydrologic cycle and a fundamental piece in storm-water modeling applications in hydrologic engi-neering. A physically based model of flow through the unsatur-ated zone is constituted by Richard’s equation. Exact solutions of this equation are difficult due to a variety of reasons that ...

1.1 Motivation and Challenges Service provisioning and updating refers to the decision-making process of the locations of services within a specific edge computing network to balance the interests of service providers and consumers to achieve the greatest eficiency possible [7]. Numerous mobile devices and sensors in edge networks need to interface with services and exchange data in real-time ...

Abstract—In edge networks, distributed computing resources have been widely utilized to collaboratively perform a machine learning task by multiple nodes. However, the model training time in heterogeneous edge networks is becoming longer because of excessive computation and delay caused by slow nodes, namely stragglers. The parameter server even abandons stragglers which fail to return ...

In laboratory studies, praising children’s effort encourages them to adopt incremental motivational frame-works—they believe ability is malleable, attribute success to hard work, enjoy challenges, and generate strate-gies for improvement. In contrast, praising children’s inherent abilities encourages them to adopt fixed-ability frameworks. Does the praise parents spontaneously give ...

The specifics of what is a socialist legal system and what constitutes Chinese characteristics in terms of the rule of law are subject to further debate. The Confucian heritage rooted legal tradition and the single party ruling system have significantly shaped the legal landscape of the country, making the route to the rule of law in China a long and thorny one. Despite China’s socialist ...
