Assigning Hierarchical Descriptions to Visual Assemblies of Blocks with Occlusion
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-10)
This memo describes a program for parsing simple two-dimensional piles of blocks into plausible nested subassemblies. Each subassembly must be one of a few types known to the program, such as stack, tower, or arch. Each ...
One System for Two Tasks: A Commonsense Algorithm Memory that Solves Problems and Comprehends Language
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-11)
Plan synthesis and language comprehension, or more generally, the act of discovering how one perception relates to others, are two sides of the same coin, because they both rely on a knowledge of cause and effect - algorithmic ...
The Intersection Problem
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-11)
This paper is intended as a supplement to AI MEMO 331, "A System for Representing and Using Real-World Knowledge". It is an attempt to redefine and clarify what I now believe the central theme of the research to be. Briefly, ...
Garbage Collection in a Very Large Address Space
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-09)
The address space is broken into areas that can be garbage collected separately. An area is analogous to a file on current systems. Each process has a local computation area for its stack and temporary storage that is ...
The Fundamental Eel Equations
(MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, 1975-12)
Details of the kinematics, statics, and dynamics of a particularly simple form of locomotory system are developed to demonstrate the importance of understanding the behavior of the mechanical system interposed between the ...
