Identifying Network Public Opinion Leaders Based on Markov Logic Networks by Weizhe Zhang, Xiaoqiang Li, Hui He, Xing Wang

“…In this paper, a network opinion leader recognition method based on relational data was put forward, and an opinion leader recognition system integrating public opinion data acquisition module, data characteristic selection, and fusion module as well as opinion leader discovery module based on Markov Logic Networks was designed. The designed opinion leader recognition system not only can overcome the incomplete data acquisition and isolated task of traditional methods, but also can recognize opinion leaders comprehensively with considerations to multiple problems by using the relational model. …”

Same Fuzzy Logic Controller for Two-Wheeled Mobile Robot Navigation in Strange Environments by Awatef Aouf, Lotfi Boussaid, Anis Sakly

“…For any mobile device, the ability to navigate smoothly in its environment is of paramount importance, which justifies researchers’ continuous work on designing new techniques to reach this goal. In this work, we briefly present a description of a hard work on designing a Same Fuzzy Logic Controller (S.F.L.C.) of the two reactive behaviors of the mobile robot, namely, “go to goal obstacle avoidance” and “wall following,” in order to solve its navigation problems. …”
