Wumpus Advisor 1: A First Implementation Program that Tutors Logical and Probabilistic Reasoning Skills
(1976-10-01)
The Wumpus Advisor program offers advice to a player involved in choosing the best move in a game for which competence in dealing with incomplete and uncertain knowledge is required. The design and implementation of ...
Computational Geometry of Linear Threshold Functions
(1976-07-01)
Linear threshold machines are defined to be those whose computations are based on the outputs of a set of linear threshold decision elements. The number of such elements is called the rank of the machine. An analysis ...
A Computerized Look at Cat Locomotion or One Way to Scan a Cat
(1976-07-01)
This paper describes a three phase project concerning the watchin, analyzing, and describing of motions of a cat in various gaits. All data is based on two 16mm films of an actual cat moving on a treadmill. In phase ...
A Case Study of a Young Child Doing Turtle Graphics in LOGO
(1976-07-01)
This paper explores some important issues with regard to using computers in education. It probes into the question of what programming ideas and projects will engage young children. In particular, a seven year old ...
The Interpretation of Structure From Motion
(1976-10-01)
The interpretation of structure from motion is examined from a computational point of view. The question addressed is how the 3-D structure and motion of objects can be inferred from the 2-D transformations of their ...
Computer System for Visual Recognition Using Active Knowledge
(1976-06-01)
A system for visual recognition is described, with implications for the general problem of representation of knowledge to assist control. The immediate objective is a computer system that will recognize objects in a ...
Analsysis by Propagation of Constraints in Elementary Geometry Problem Solving
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1976-06)
This paper describes GEL, a new geometry theorem prover. GEL is the result of an attempt to transfer the problem solving abilities of the EL electronic circuit analysis program of Sussman and Stallman to the domain of ...
Fundamental and applied aspects of contact electrification
(University of CambridgeDepartment of Chemical Engineering, 1976-02)
Apparatus has been developed, which permits the measurement of electrification produced by rolling or sliding contact between a spherical specimen, and a plane dielectric sample. Measurements of the charge transferred to ...
Lambda: The Ultimate Imperative
(1976-03-01)
We demonstrate how to model the following common programmingsconstructs in terms of an applicative order language similar to LISP: Simple Recursion, Iteration, Compound Statements and Expressions, GO TO and Assignment, ...
A State Space Model for Sensorimotor Control and Learning
(1976-01-01)
This is the first of a two-part presentation which deals with certain computer controlled manipulator problems. This first part discusses a model which is designed to address problems of motor control, motor learning, ...
