Causal descriptions and collaborative physical design
In the design of physical artifacts, written causal descriptions serve as an important medium for communication among members of a design team. This paper describes recent research in getting programs to read a~d reason on the basis of such descriptions and explores the use of this technology in constructing programs that support collaborative design by (1) cataloging and comparing alternate sp...
متن کاملScientific Names and Descriptions for Organisms on the Semantic Web
An efficient process for creating precise, accurate, machine-interpretable morphological descriptions of groups of organisms is needed to more effectively gather observations of the world’s biodiversity. While morphological descriptions are required for the publication of modern scientific names, it is common for these descriptions to get revised after the initial publication which can lead to ...
متن کاملThe or That: Definite and Demonstrative Descriptions in Second Language Acquisition
Since Heubner's (1985) pioneering study, there have been many studies on (mis) use/ non-use of articles by L2 learners from article-less and article languages. The present study investigated how Persian L2 learners of English produce and interpret English definite descriptions and demonstrative descriptions. It was assumed that definite and demonstrative descriptions share the same central sema...
متن کاملCausal Models as Minimal Descriptions of Multivariate Systems
By applying the minimality principle for model selection, one should seek the model that describes the data by a code of minimal length. Learning is viewed as data compression that exploits the regularities or qualitative properties found in the data, in order to build a model containing the meaningful information. The theory of causal modeling can be interpreted by this approach. The regularit...
متن کاملMultiple Descriptions , Error Concealment , and Re ned Descriptions for Image
{ This paper demonstrates the conservative nature of a multiple description approach to image and video coding, by showing that error con-cealment of a sub-optimally partitioned coded image stream yields comparable results under realistic conditions. Rather than use the non-orthogonal transforms of multiple description coding, which result in excess rate when both streams are received, a standa...
