Learning at the knowledge level

Creator:: Dietterich, Thomas G.
Abstract:: When Newell introduced the concept of the knowledge level as a useful level of description for computer systems, he focused on the representation of knowledge. This paper applies the knowledge level notion to the problem of knowledge acquisition. Two interesting issues arise. First, some existing machine learning programs appear to...

A knowledge level analysis of learning programs

Creator:: Dietterich, Thomas G.
Abstract:: This chapter develops a taxonomy of learning methods using techniques based on Newell’s knowledge level. Two properties of each system are defined: knowledge level predictability and knowledge level learning. A system is predictable at the knowledge level if the principle of rationality can be applied to predict its behavior. A...

Editorial : exploratory research in machine learning

Creator:: Dietterich, Thomas G.
Abstract:: Exploratory research contributes to the continued vitality of every discipline. The aim of exploratory research is to identify new tasks-tasks that cannot be solved by existing methods. Once a new task has been found, exploratory research seeks to develop a precise definition of the task and to understand the factors...

Design, modeling and performance of miniature reciprocating expander for a heat actuated heat pump

Creator:: Herron, Thomas G.
Abstract:: A miniature reciprocating expander is being developed as part of a larger program to develop a heat actuated heat pump for portable applications. By utilizing the higher energy density of liquid hydrocarbon fuels relative to batteries, a heat actuated heat pump would be able to provide cooling for much longer...

Micro-bubble dynamics in two-phase flow through a micro-channel

Creator:: Shepard, Thomas G.
Abstract:: An experimental investigation into the behavior of micro-bubbles flowing through a micro-channel has been conducted. Experiments were performed within a rectangular micro-channel with dimensions of 5 cm x 13.2 mm x l30 jim. Bubbles were generated in an electrolyte solution by electrolysis at the lower channel wall near the inlet....

The influence of canopy structure and epiphytes on the hydrology of Douglas-fir forests

Creator:: Pypker, Thomas G.
Abstract:: Canopy structure has a significant impact on the canopy hydrology of Douglas-fir forests in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). Whole canopy rainfall interception was measured for young Douglas-fir forest and compared to an old-growth Douglas-fir forest. The old-growth forest had significantly greater canopy water storage capacity (5) and direct throughfall fraction...

FORLOG : a logic-based architecture for design

Creator:: Dietterich, Thomas G. and Ullman, David G.
Abstract:: It is difficult to build intelligent computer-aided design (ICAD) programs using available expert system shells and AI programming languages. To build ICAD programs, tools are needed that support (a) generative search of design spaces, (b) deep search of design spaces to evaluate alternative designs, (c) simultaneous exploration of alternative designs...
