This paper discusses the refinement of the algebraic expression-writing rules for the PAT Algebra I tutor, between 1992 and 1997. Direct observation of students in class, step-by-step PAT tutor protocols tracing student behavior, and statistical analysis of protocol data, have all informed our understanding of students’ skills, and our refinement of this part of PAT’s production model.

Research has found links between academic failure and criminal offending suggest that many incarcerated young people have experienced significant behavioral learning problems in school, which could result outcomes poor performance. The objective of this study was to analyse writing disorders impulsive compulsive prisoners. sample composed 194 male prisoners, 81 had been diagnosed with Antisocia...

— This paper presents our approach to extending the niche of behavior-based robotics to manipulation. We use results from neuroscience to define the basic behaviors of the manipulator. Furthermore, we derive some qualitative design rules for the mechanics of the manipulator. With these principles, we have designed a first demo application: writing on a board with a mobile manipulator.

The ability to distinguish statistically different populations of speakers or writers can be an important asset in many NLP applications. In this paper, we describe a method of using document similarity measures to describe differences in behavior between native and non-native speakers of English in a writing task.

The present study investigated the interactions between motor action and cognitive processing with particular reference to kanji-culture individuals. Kanji-culture individuals often move their finger as if they are writing when they are solving cognitive tasks, for example, when they try to recall the spelling of English words. This behavior is called kusho, meaning air-writing in Japanese. How...

Model evolution is an essential activity in software system modeling, which is traditionally supported by manual editing or writing model transformation rules. However, this process presents challenges to those who are unfamiliar with a model transformation language or abstract syntax definitions. This demonstration presents an approach to ease the implementation of model evolution tasks by rec...

A single photomechanical supramolecular nanowire actuator with an azobenzene-containing 1,3,5-tricarboxamide derivative is developed by employing a direct writing method. Single nanowires display photoinduced reversible bending and the bending behavior follows first-order kinetics associated with azobenzene photoisomerization. A wireless photomechanical nanowire tweezers that remotely manipulat...
