recently, researches on motor learning have illustrated that learning with effortless process supports learning under psychological stress. also, contextual interference and practice specificity theories are among those theories which investigate desired practice conditions. the current study aimed at identifying cognitive effort and effortless process based on contextual interference and pract...

csMTL, or context-sensitive Multiple Task Learning, is presented as a method of inductive transfer that uses a single output neural network and additional contextual inputs for learning multiple tasks. The csMTL approach is demonstrated to produce hypotheses that are equivalent to or better than standard MTL hypotheses when learning a primary task in the presence of related and unrelated tasks....

Climate change adaptation presents a challenge to current top-down governance structures, including the tension between provision of public goods and actions required by diverse stakeholders, including private actors. Alternative governance approaches that facilitate participation and learning across scales are gaining attention for their ability to bring together diverse actors across sectors ...

People learn and induce from prior experiences. We first learn how to use a spoon and then know how to use forks of various sizes. We first learn how to sew and then learn how to embroider. Transferring knowledge from one situation to another related situation often increases the speed and quality of learning. This observation is relevant to human learning, as well as machine learning. This the...
