Ignorance, myopia, and naivete in computer vision systems
(Elsevier, 1991-01)
After a period of tremendous excitement and enthusiasm, many industrial people and researchers are disenchanted with computer vision, and others are certainly much less enthusiastic about it. The time has come to regroup. ...
DENDRAL: A case study of the first expert system for scientific hypothesis formation
(Elsevier, 1993-06)
The DENDRAL Project was one of the first large-scale programs to embody the strategy of using detailed, task-specific knowledge about a problem domain as a source of heuristics, and to seek generality through automating ...
Why aspect graphs are not (yet) practical for computer vision
(Elsevier, 1992-03)
A panel discussion on the theme of this report was organized for the 1991 IEEE Workshop on Directions in Automated CAD-Based Vision. This report contains the revised comments of the panel discussion participants.
Nonmonotonic consequences in default domain theory
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-03)
Default domain theory is a framework for representing and reasoning about commonsense knowledge. Although this theory is motivated by ideas in Reiter’s work on default logic, it is in some sense a dual framework. We make ...
Conceptual dependency and its descendants
(Elsevier, 1992)
This paper surveys representation and processing theories arising out of conceptual dependency theory. One of the primary characteristics of conceptual dependency was the notion of a canonical form, built out of a small ...
DUNIX: Distributed operating systems education via experimentation
(Elsevier, 1989-08)
Numerous distributed operating systems have been proposed in the literature, some of which have developed into commercial systems. Unfortunately, the educational arena has not kept up-to-date with these developments. ...
Fourier descriptors and handwritten digit recognition
(Springer-Verlag, 1993-12)
This paper presents the results of a comparative study of various Fourier descriptor representations and their use in recognition of unconstrained handwritten digits. Certain characteristics of five distinct Fourier ...
A practitioner's guide to data base compression tutorial
(Elsevier, 1983)
Data compression techniques can improve information system performance by reducing the size of a database by as much as ninety percent. This paper is written to provide assistance to practitioners considering the use of ...
A formal method for analyzing and integrating the rule-sets of multiple experts
(Elsevier, 1992-01)
Although there has been a movement toward the use of multiple sources of knowledge for expert systems development, there are no formal methods to guide knowledge engineers in integrating these sources. Further approaches ...
