متن کاملAn Indicator Framework for Assessing Agroecosystem Resilience
Taking departure in the theory of resilience in social-ecological systems, we present an analysis and discussion of how resilience theory can be applied to agroecosystems. Building on the premise that agroecosystems are too complex for resilience to be measured in any precise manner, we delineate behavior-based indicators of resilience within agroecosystems. Based on a review of relevant litera...
متن کاملImproving Source Selection in Analogical Reasoning An Interactionist Approach
The success of any analogical reasoner depends upon its ability to select a relevant source. We can improve source selection by more completely integrating the process of source retrieval with analogical inference, and by using experience in solving target problems to find properties that effectively predict a source’s relevance to future targets. This paper describes the design and evaluation ...
متن کاملUnderstanding Subjectivity: An Interactionist View
User modeling is traditionally about constructing an explicit representation of the user. We argue against such approach because it overlooks the real nature of the human brain: plasticity and absence of monolithic control. Instead, we suggest to focus not on the modeling of the primary mechanism that explains a user’s response but on the mechanisms through which technology can mediate as compl...
