چکیده
In this study, we report on a 12-year-old boy with autism, mental retardation, and a history of severe gastrointestinal problems who presented with total liquid and food refusal. Backward chaining was used to shape drinking from a cup, and a fading procedure was used to increase the quantity of water he was required to drink.

Type-2 Fuzzy Hybrid Expert System For Diagnosis Of Degenerative Disc Diseases
One-third of the people with an age over twenty have some signs of degenerated discs. However, in most of the patients the mere presence of degenerative discs is not a problem leading to pain, neurological compression, or other symptoms. This paper presents an interval type-2 fuzzy hybrid rule-based system to diagnose the abnormal degenerated discs where pain variables are represented by interv...
متن کاملBackward Pragmatic Transfer: The Case of Refusals in Persian
The purpose of this study was to examine Cook’s (2003) ‘multiple competence’ by investigating backward pragmatic transfer (from L2 [English] to L1 [Persian]) in refusals to invitations. It explored participants’ frequency and content of refusal strategies in L1 regarding the status (i.e., power and distance) of interlocutors and the proficiency level of EFL learners. The participants were Persi...
متن کاملAdvanced Geometry Tutor: An intelligent tutor that teaches proof-writing with construction
Two problem solving strategies, forward chaining and backward chaining, were compared to see how they affect students’ learning of geometry theorem proving with construction. In order to determine which strategy accelerates learning the most, an intelligent tutoring system, the Advanced Geometry Tutor, was developed that can teach either strategy while controlling all other instructional variab...
متن کاملAn Approach to Backward Chaining in Xcerpt
Xcerpt is a declarative pattern based query and transformation language for semistructured data that like xml that bases on concepts and techniques of logic programming. Xcerpt uses both forward and backward chaining for program evaluation. While forward chaining is used for operations like view materialization, backward chaining is used in querying databases such as the web. This thesis presen...
متن کاملData-driven Backward Chaining
CLIPS cannot effectively perform sound and complete logical inference in most real-world contexts. The problem facing CLIPS is its lack of goal generation. Without automatic goal generation and maintenance, Forward chaining can only deduce all instances of a relationship. Backward chaining, which requires goal generation, allows deduction of only that subset of what is logically true which is a...
