My Sister the Werewolf
First they were chased by a werewolf. Then his sister was scratched...Ouch! And now his sister is a werewolf herself. It’s not that Marcus is scared of seeing a werewolf. He had always wanted to see one in person. He just didn’t expect that his wish would come true and he would come face to face with one. Now he has bigger problems. Since his sister Sandra was scratched by a werewolf she has begun acting strange. Now it seems Sandra is turning into a werewolf herself and there is nothing that Marcus can do to stop her transformation. Things begin getting worse. Marcus finds out there are a lot more then just one werewolf at his school. The werewolf that scratched her is coming for her, and it is up to Marcus and Dillon to stop him before he takes her away for good.
Information Modelling and Knowledge Bases III
Papers direct the focus of interest to the development and use of conceptual models in information systems of various kinds and aim at improving awareness about general or specific problems and solutions in conceptual modelling.
Learning with Nested Generalized Exemplars
Machine Learning is one of the oldest and most intriguing areas of Ar tificial Intelligence. From the moment that computer visionaries first began to conceive the potential for general-purpose symbolic computa tion, the concept of a machine that could learn by itself has been an ever present goal. Today, although there have been many implemented com puter programs that can be said to learn, we are still far from achieving the lofty visions of self-organizing automata that spring to mind when we think of machine learning. We have established some base camps and scaled some of the foothills of this epic intellectual adventure, but we are still far from the lofty peaks that the imagination conj...
A Future for Knowledge Acquisition
In the last few years rapid advances have been made in reproductive medicine, making it necessary for those involved to regularly update their knowledge. The purpose of this book is to describe the state of the art in this field, making it possible for the reader to gain an orientation among all the diagnostic and therapeutic potentials of modern reproductive medicine in order to advise patients fully. Chapters from the fields of gynecology, and reproductive medicine in a specific sense provide knowledge about these subjects. Authors of international standing have contributed chapters on their specialties. These chapters together form a book describing the state of the art in the diagnosis and therapy of sterility in gynecology and andrology.
Subject Librarians
The university subject librarians' role is at the centre of new models of teaching and learning, yet further debate and published contributions are still needed to shape its future direction. Subject Librarians: Engaging with the Learning and Teaching Environment assesses trends and challenges in current practice, and aims to encourage renewed thinking and improved approaches. Its editors and authors include experienced practitioners and academics. At a time of great change and increasing challenges in higher education this book offers directors of academic services, library managers, librarians and lecturers a chance to reflect on the key issues and consider the needs of the learning community. Subject Librarians: Engaging with the Learning and Teaching Environment also provides a perspective on current practice and a reference source for students of Information Management and Information Studies.
Knowledge Acquisition: Selected Research and Commentary
What follows is a sampler of work in knowledge acquisition. It comprises three technical papers and six guest editorials. The technical papers give an in-depth look at some of the important issues and current approaches in knowledge acquisition. The editorials were pro duced by authors who were basically invited to sound off. I've tried to group and order the contributions somewhat coherently. The following annotations emphasize the connections among the separate pieces. Buchanan's editorial starts on the theme of "Can machine learning offer anything to expert systems?" He emphasizes the practical goals of knowledge acquisition and the challenge of aiming for them. Lenat's editorial briefly ...
Controlling Your Daily Demons
You knew it was wrong and can't understand why you did it. What drives us to do these wrong things? Why are we sometimes so out of control? Have you ever asked yourself these questions? Most of us have, perhaps on a daily basis. The Bible attributes our doing the wrong thing when we really want to do what is right to the influences of sin spirits upon our lives. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin (sinful spirits) living in me that does it. Ro. 7:20 NIV. . I call these sinful spirits Daily Demons (DDs). These DDs are Satan's little helpers who try to influence our decisions by continually sowing various sinful Daily Temptations (DTs) in our lives....
Automating Knowledge Acquisition for Expert Systems
In June of 1983, our expert systems research group at Carnegie Mellon University began to work actively on automating knowledge acquisition for expert systems. In the last five years, we have developed several tools under the pressure and influence of building expert systems for business and industry. These tools include the five described in chapters 2 through 6 - MORE, MOLE, SALT, KNACK and SIZZLE. One experiment, conducted jointly by developers at Digital Equipment Corporation, the Soar research group at Carnegie Mellon, and members of our group, explored automation of knowledge acquisition and code development for XCON (also known as R1), a production-level expert system for configuring ...
Advances of Computational Intelligence in Industrial Systems
Computational Intelligence (CI) has emerged as a rapidly growing field over the past decade. This volume reports the exploration of CI frontiers with an emphasis on a broad spectrum of real-world applications. Such a collection of chapters has presented the state-of-the-art of CI applications in industry and will be an essential resource for professionals and researchers who wish to learn and spot the opportunities in applying CI techniques to their particular problems.
