Variable Control in Inductive Inference for Engineering Education

Courseware for Control Engineering Education

The paper treats MATLAB and SIMULINK courseware for education of the first two subjects in control engineering curriculum. The courses are based on simple SISO control using classical controllers, including simple nonlinear elements. Description of basic functions and programs and several examples of their use comprise the main part of the paper. The software is freely available on the Czech Te...

On Principles of Software Engineering - Role of the Inductive Inference

This paper highlights the role of the inductive inference principle in software engineering. It takes the challenge to settle differences and to confront the ideas behind the usual software engineering concepts. We focus on the inductive inference mechanism’s role behind the automatic program construction activities and software evolution. We believe that the revision of rather ln old ideas in ...

Subjectivity in Inductive Inference

This paper examines circumstances under which subjectivity enhances the effectiveness of inductive reasoning. We consider a game in which Fate chooses a data generating process and agents are characterized by inference rules that may be purely objective (or data-based) or may incorporate subjective considerations. The basic intuition is that agents who invoke no subjective considerations are do...

Parsimony hierarchies for inductive inference

Freivalds defined an acceptable programming system independent criterion for learning programs for functions in which the final programs were required to be both correct and “nearly” minimal size, i.e, within a computable function of being purely minimal size. Kinber showed that this parsimony requirement on final programs limits learning power. However, in scientific inference, parsimony is co...
