Verbal reasoning : technique and practice 1.

Dirigido a alumnos de enseñanza secundaria, presenta la técnica y la práctica para la resolución de ejercicios de razonamiento verbal. Incluye trece de los treinta y cinco tipos de preguntas que se pueden encontrar en los exámenes oficiales (los volúmenes 2, 3 y 4 de la misma serie tratan los otros tipos) en el área de lengua. Para cada tipo de ejercicio explica el objetivo del mismo y la técnica que se debe seguir para su realización, con ejemplos y notas aclaratorias, y a continuación presenta un ejercicio práctico para aplicar dicha técnica. Al final del libro hay una tabla para apuntar los resultados de cada test y controlar el progreso del alumno, y un apartado con las soluciones.

IQ and aptitude tests : assess your verbal, numerical and spatial reasoning skills.

El libro presenta un conjunto de tests de aptitud (para medir el potencial de éxito de una persona) y tests de inteligencia normalizados, cada vez más utilizados en procesos de contratación, selección y evaluación de personal. Organizados en cuatro apartados, tests de aptitud verbal, espacial, numérica y tests de inteligencia, permiten trabajar distintas áreas (significado de palabras, gramática y comprensión, aptitud verbal avanzada, análisis lógico, cálculo mental, secuencias numéricas y problemas numéricos) para mejorar las habilidades verbales, numéricas y de razonamiento del lector.

A Homogeneous Set-Theoretical Frame for Clustering Fuzzy Relational Data

Our purpose is to provide a set-theoretical frame to clustering fuzzy relational data basically based on cardinality of the fuzzy subsets that represent objects and their complementaries, without applying any crisp property. From this perspective we define a family of fuzzy similarity indexes which includes a set of fuzzy indexes introduced by Tolias et al, and we analyze under which conditions it is defined a fuzzy proximity relation. Following an original idea due to S. Miyamoto we evaluate the similarity between objects and features by means the same mathematical procedure. Joining these concepts and methods we establish an algorithm to clustering fuzzy relational data. Finally, we present an example to make clear all the process

An automatic correction tool for relational database schemas

A Web-based tool developed to automatically correct relational database schemas is presented. This tool has been integrated into a more general e-learning platform and is used to reinforce teaching and learning on database courses. This platform assigns to each student a set of database problems selected from a common repository. The student has to design a relational database schema and enter it into the system through a user friendly interface specifically designed for it. The correction tool corrects the design and shows detected errors. The student has the chance to correct them and send a new solution. These steps can be repeated as many times as required until a correct solution is obtained. Currently, this system is being used in different introductory database courses at the University of Girona with very promising results

Multivariate Statistical Process Control and Case-Based Reasoning for situation assessment of Sequencing Batch Reactors

ABSRACT This thesis focuses on the monitoring, fault detection and diagnosis of Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP), which are important fields of research for a wide range of engineering disciplines. The main objective is to evaluate and apply a novel artificial intelligent methodology based on situation assessment for monitoring and diagnosis of Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) operation. To this end, Multivariate Statistical Process Control (MSPC) in combination with Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) methodology was developed, which was evaluated on three different SBR (pilot and lab-scales) plants and validated on BSM1 plant layout.

Entrepreneurship, ties and relational networks: the case of a public-private cross-border tourism product

The thesis aims to understand the processes of entrepreneurship that try to create businesses or products with a high degree of complexity. This complexity comes from the fact that these products or initiatives can only be viable with the concurrence of a large number of heterogeneous actors (public, private, from different regions, etc..) which interact in a relational context. A case with these characteristics is the Camí dels Bons Homes. The thesis analyzes the evolution of the relational network from the point of view of its structure and content of its links. The results show and explain the observed changes in the network structure and the changes in the ties content. This analysis of the content of ties contributes to a new systematization and operationalization of ties’ content. Moreover this analysis takes in account negative ties, a less discussed issue in literature.
