Abstract. Motivated by three applications which are under investigation at the Honeywell Research Laboratory in Minneapolis, we introduce a class of large scale control problems. I...
In this paper we study decentralized, networked systems whose interaction dynamics are given by a nearestneighbor averaging rule. By letting one node in the network take on the rol...
The discovery of characteristic rules is a well-known data mining task and has lead to several successful applications. However, because of the descriptive nature of characteristic...
We present a principled approach to the problem of connecting a controlled document authoring system with a knowledge base. We start by describingclosed-world authoring situations...
The utility problem occurs when the cost of the acquired knowledge outweighs its bene ts. When the learner acquires control knowledge for speeding up a problem solver, the bene t ...
