Improving problem solving performance by example guided reformulation of knowledge

Creator:: Flann, Nicholas S.
Abstract:: This paper introduces a method that improves the performance of a problem solver by reformulating its domain theory into one in which functionally relevant features are explicit in the syntax. This method, in contrast to previous reformulation methods, employs sets of training examples to constrain and direct the reformulation process....

Wave Energy Converter Archetypes and Power Performance Representation

Creator:: May-Varas, Nicholas and Robertson, Bryson
Abstract:: There is a continuing and increasing need to develop renewable energy technologies that are efficient, cost-effective and produce usable forms of energy. Wave energy converters (WECs) have an opportunity to play a key and significant role in the integration of renewable energy technologies on a commercial scale. It is estimated...

A study of explanation-based methods for inductive learning

Creator:: Flann, Nicholas S. and Dietterich, Thomas G.
Abstract:: This paper formalizes a new learning from examples problem: identifying a correct concept definition from positive examples such that the concept is some specialization of a target concept defined by a domain theory. This paper describes an empirical study that evaluates three methods for solving this problem: explanation based generalization...

Two short papers on machine learning

Creator:: Flann, Nicholas S. and Dietterich, Thomas G.
Abstract:: This technical report reprints two articles that appeared in Proceedings of the Third International Machine Learning Workshop at Skytop, Pennsylvania, June 24-26, 1985. The first paper, The EG Project: Recent Progress, summarizes work on the EG project, which is investigating the role of active experimentation in aiding machine learning programs....

Induction over explanations : a method that exploits domain knowledge to learn from examples

Creator:: Flann, Nicholas S. and Dietterich, Thomas G.
Abstract:: We introduce five criteria by which to judge the suitability of a method for solving the problem of learning concepts from examples: correctness (the correct concept should be identified), performance efficiency (the learned definition should be efficient to apply to the performance task), flexibility (the method should be able to...

Selecting appropriate representations for learning from examples

Creator:: Flann, Nicholas S. and Dietterich, Thomas G.
Abstract:: The task of inductive learning from examples places constraints on the representation of training instances and concepts. These constraints are different from, and often incompatible with, the constraints placed on the representation by the performance task. This incompatibility explains why previous researchers have found it so difficult to construct good...

Analysis and Transformations in Support of Android Privacy

Creator:: Bogdanas, Denis, Nelson, Nicholas, and Dig, Danny
Abstract:: To protect user’s privacy and system’s integrity, mobile platforms use permission models to control accesses to protected resources such as GPS location, Contacts, etc. The previous major version of Android used a static permission model, which compromised the security and privacy of apps. Android 6 overhauled its permission model to...

Terra Cubes Design Final Technical Report: Design of a Modular Bioretention System for Nitrate, Phosphate and Herbicide Treatment

Creator:: Evans, Lucas, Larson, Lars, Debell, Thomas, and Dunstan, Nicholas
Abstract:: Plant nurseries comprise the largest agricultural sector in Oregon at nearly $1 billion per year. Even at this scale, individual nurseries and greenhouses do not have clear water quality standards set by the EPA. Watershed-level total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) have been set for excess nutrients and herbicides due to...
