An experiment in learning an abstract subject.

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...

Subject Enhancement: Report on an Experiment

This report describes an experiment in subject enhancement conducted at an academic research library. Subjects and contents notes were added to online catalog records for a group of previously uncirculated social science essay collections, and circulation was monitored over one academic year. A control group, plus a third group with added contents notes but no extra sub. jects, were also monito...

An Experiment in Abstract Machine Design

SUMMARY In this article we present Typed Feature Structures as an extension of Prolog, and show how to come up with a compilation scheme and an abstract machine using a design methodology based on partial evaluation. First we define the transformations used by our partial evaluator. Then we present the design methodology which we will use later. Next, we clarify the notion of Typed Feature Stru...

An experiment in agent teaching by subject matter experts

This paper presents a successful knowledge acquisition experiment in which subject matter experts that did not have any prior knowledge engineering experience succeeded to teach the Disciple-COA agent how to critique courses of action, a challenge problem addressed by the DARPA’s High Performance Knowledge Bases program. We first present the COA challenge problem and the architecture of Discipl...
