Engineering Design
Contrary to popular mythology, the designs of favorable products and successful systems do not appear suddenly, or magically. This second edition of Engineering Design demonstrates that symbolic representation and related problem-solving methods, offer significant opportunities to clarify and articulate concepts of design to lay a better framework for design research and design education. Artificial Intelligence (AI) provides a substantial body of material concerned with understanding and modeling cognitive processes. This book adopts the vocabulary and a paradigm of AI to enhance the presentation and explanation of design. It includes concepts from AI because of their explanatory power and their utility as possible ingredients of practical design activity. This second edition has been enriched by the inclusion of recent work on design reasoning, computational design, AI in design, and design cognition, with pointers to a wide cross section of the current literature.
Change of Representation and Inductive Bias
Change of Representation and Inductive Bias One of the most important emerging concerns of machine learning researchers is the dependence of their learning programs on the underlying representations, especially on the languages used to describe hypotheses. The effectiveness of learning algorithms is very sensitive to this choice of language; choosing too large a language permits too many possible hypotheses for a program to consider, precluding effective learning, but choosing too small a language can prohibit a program from being able to find acceptable hypotheses. This dependence is not just a pitfall, however; it is also an opportunity. The work of Saul Amarel over the past two decades ha...
Graph Mining
What does the Web look like? How can we find patterns, communities, outliers, in a social network? Which are the most central nodes in a network? These are the questions that motivate this work. Networks and graphs appear in many diverse settings, for example in social networks, computer-communication networks (intrusion detection, traffic management), protein-protein interaction networks in biology, document-text bipartite graphs in text retrieval, person-account graphs in financial fraud detection, and others. In this work, first we list several surprising patterns that real graphs tend to follow. Then we give a detailed list of generators that try to mirror these patterns. Generators are ...

Interactive Realism
Interactive realism is a new and original theory of the Net that explains cyberspace as a social phenomenon. Mark Poster, author of The Second Media Age and The Mode of Information: Poststructuralism and Social Context
Methadone Clinic
Methadone Clinic is the story of Billy and Pamm, how they get involved, and how Pamm turns Billy on to this job as a substance abuse counselor at the methadone clinic she attends. Set in New York’s East Village, it’s an in-your-face slice of contemporary inner-city life. A must-read for anyone interested in the issue of substance abuse and recovery, Methadone Clinic hits a raw nerve. Written by a former counselor, the reader gets a behind the scenes look into heroin addiction and the methadone industry it has spawned. It is a gritty, true-to-life novel, written by one who understands the plight of the patients and the workers who serve them. As such, it is also a work of considerable social import.
