Synchronistic historical background for Jung-Pauli's modelling of psyche and nature concerning the aquarius myth part I: The aquarius mythologem in the 'St. John-St. Andrew' enamel picture of the Holy Crown of Hungary

Publication Name: 7th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications Coginfocom 2016 Proceedings

Publication Date: 2017-01-03

Volume: Unknown

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 439-454

Description:

The paper discusses the presentations of special great works of art to compare their system of 'representation' and meaning to the similar identifiable and re-interpreted symbols, imagery and meaning communications in between Jung and Pauli's 'imagination and interpretation space'. In the first part of the paper we attempt to prove hypothesis of the meaningful synchronicity by the symbolic interpretation of three interrelated, stunningly beautiful and unique images of the apostles on the Holy Crown of Hungary.

Jung and Pauli's modelling of psyche and nature concerning the aquarius myth part I: On the last chapter of the Pauli-Jung collaboration

Publication Name: 7th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications Coginfocom 2016 Proceedings

Publication Date: 2017-01-03

Volume: Unknown

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 469-484

Description:

In the paper we intend to show in detail how the issue of the transition from the 'Pisces' into the so-called 'Aquarius' 'World age' moves through the world view of the two major minds', Wolfgang Pauli and Carl G. Jung's world view of special scientific interpreting 'Psyche and Nature' through the reinterpreted symbols of astrology in a 'synchronistic way' in particular from the point of view of their last years 'cooperation' of not entirely conflict-free. As far as is possible, we touch the issues of their early dreams and symbolic interpretations related to the zodiac and age of the Aquarius.

Contrasting results and effectiveness of controlled experiments with crowdsourced data in the evaluation of auditory reaction times

Publication Name: 7th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications Coginfocom 2016 Proceedings

Publication Date: 2017-01-03

Volume: Unknown

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 421-425

Description:

We developed an application for the Android platform to test reaction times to auditory stimuli on mobile devices. During tests, users were asked to respond as quickly as possible to auditory events provided through headphone playback, and to also identify the directions of those events based on stereo panning. This paper presents a comparative evaluation of data (i.e. response times in seconds and error rates) collected through controlled supervised experiments as opposed to a crowdsourcing based solution. It is demonstrated that in some respects, crowdsourced data and laboratory data show similar results within their own category, but that at the same time a statistical comparison between the two measurement configurations is difficult due to the significant amount of noisy (outlier) data in the crowdsourced case.

Jung and Pauli's modelling of psyche and nature concerning the aquarius myth part II: Further aquarius patterns in Jung's dreams, visions and transference cases, with Pauli in the background

Publication Name: 7th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications Coginfocom 2016 Proceedings

Publication Date: 2017-01-03

Volume: Unknown

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 485-496

Description:

This second part of the paper deals with some of Jung's most important comments, interpretation and hypothesis on depth psychological and general human problems of the transition of the Age of Aquarius and Pisces. At the background in almost all cases Wolfgang Pauli's presence of partly spiritiual, partly inspiratory can be detected. Of particular interest are the following discussions in detail on the Ganymede mythologem, the Greek version of the Aquarian myth and their specific spontaneous depth psychological manifestations.

How cognitive infocommunications play a critical role in shaping the future of forensic sciences defining forensic cognitive infocommunications

Publication Name: 7th IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Infocommunications Coginfocom 2016 Proceedings

Publication Date: 2017-01-03

Volume: Unknown

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 283-287

Description:

Forensic sciences are facing radical changes. Cognitive technologies are one of the main efforts in forming these changes which can fulfill cognitive procedures that were once exclusively the scope of forensic experts. However, the acquisition of a cognitive structure that makes experts more effectual, can also lead them to erroneous identifications. Therefore, one must fully examine and interpret how information transfer occurs between two cognitive beings. Our focus in this paper is to lay the basis and to inspire further research on the development of Forensic Cognitive Infocommunications.

Modeling of railway transition zones under dynamic loading

Publication Name: Icsmge 2017 19th International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering

Publication Date: 2017-01-01

Volume: 2017-September

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 1369-1372

Description:

Transition zones of railway tracks are intended to provide a smooth transition of the riding train, minimizing the effect of the discontinuities that exist along the track. When a train rides from an embankment onto a stiff structure, such as a bridge, tunnel or culvert, an abrupt change in the support stiffness occurs possibly inducing differential settlements. This in long term can yield to the degradation of the tracks and foundations in the transition zones. The differential settlement is especially problematic for high speed rail infrastructure as the "bump" at the transition is accentuated at high speeds. A number of techniques have been proposed or implemented to provide gradual stiffness transition at the problem zones, such as methods to ensure gradually changing pad stiffness, application of long sleepers or installation of auxiliary rails in the transition zone. The problems associated with the transition zones require a complex analysis. For efficient modeling of the mechanisms resulting in gradual line deteriorations in the transition zones the understanding of the 3D and dynamic effects associated with the problem seems to be essential. To enhance our understanding regarding the problem a 3D numerical model has been developed and presented for time domain analysis.

Improved discrete bacterial memetic evolutionary algorithm for the traveling salesman problem

Publication Name: Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing

Publication Date: 2017-01-01

Volume: 532

Issue: Unknown

Page Range: 27-38

Description:

In recent years a large number of evolutionary and other population based heuristics were proposed in the literature for solving NP-hard optimization problems. In 2015 we presented a Discrete Bacterial Memetic Evolutionary Algorithm (DBMEA) for The Traveling Salesman Problem. It provided results tested on series of TSP problems. In this paper we present an improved version of the DBMEA algorithm, where the local search is accelerated, which is the most time consuming part of the original DBMEA algorithm. This modification led to a significant improvement, the runtime of the improved DBMEA was 5– 20 times shorter than the original DBMEA algorithm. Our DBMEA algorithms calculate real value costs better than integer ones, so we modified the Concorde algorithm be comparable with our results. The improved DBMEA was tested on several TSPLIB benchmark problems and other VLSI benchmark problems and the following values were compared: - optima found by the improved DBMEA heuristic and by the modified Concorde algorithm with real cost values - runtimes of original DBMEA, improved DBMEA and modified Concorde algorithm. Based on the test results we suggest the use of the improved DBMEA heuristic for the more efficient solution of TSP problems.

Spread of common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia l.) on arable land in the Žitný ostrov

Publication Name: Journal of Central European Agriculture

Publication Date: 2017-01-01

Volume: 18

Issue: 1

Page Range: 29-41

Description:

Common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia) is an invasive alien species indigenous to North America. Ragweed is a big threat to agriculture and has a serious impact on human health. The most important area with ragweed occurrence within Europe is Pannonian Plain in Central Europe. This research introduces for the first time the unique, direct broad-scale survey of A. artemisiifolia in relation to real-life occurrence and infestation in the field. To understand the distribution of ragweed in the territory the geospatial analysis was applied to create 2D map in ArcGIS environment. The field survey was undertaken during summer 2014 in the Žitný ostrov (Slovakia). The investigation revealed that spatial occurrence of A. artemisiifolia is not homogeneous and there is also striking territorial heterogeneity of infestation rate. Ragweed was observed at 80 (47.2%) out of 169 sites. The infestation of arable land (mostly stubbles) varied from weak infestation, 24 sites (1-30 plants*10 m-2) to heavy infestation, 26 sites (˃80 plants*10 m-2). The research on associated plant communities was also carried out. Stubble field’s vegetation was found to be highly species poor, on an average only 2.5 species*10 m-2. Among 40 recorded species the most frequent (noticed at 25% sites) were Datura stramonium, Chenopodium album, and Mercurialis annua. This broad-scale survey provides an overview and useful information on considerations needed to make decisions about ragweed control and potential future expansion. The presented study offers also inventory of ragweed frequency over the large area.
