Subject: Statistical methods in inductive reasoning
Hello everyone!
I am studying methods in inductive reasoning and I am particularly interested
in the statistical ones. I have been trying to find some literature about this
subject, but the most recent article I could find had been published in
1984!!! That's quite old, isn't it.
I would be very grateful to everyone sending me some tips about books,
articles and existing tools or any remarks about this subject. Any information
that can help me is welcome.
My address is : !mcvax!dnlunx!adriana
Thanks!
Adriana

Subject: Machine Learning Applications in Software Engineering
[I'm only forwarding this message, so please send all replies to the]
[address specified at the end of this message... --jto]
I'm currently working in a project where we are aiming at
applying
machine learning techniques to software engineering. In
our case the whole software development process is open
for applying ML systems and it means that almost all
kinds of learning strategies will do. We have made some
experiments with SOAR, but we'll try cover other
approaches as well.
Well, to the point: This query tries to find out, if (1)
you have a machine learning architechture (or you are
developing one) that might be applied to SE, (2) you know
a project where the same kind of topic has been studied,
or (3) you know some articles on the subject. Please send
your replies to:

Subject: References on Writing
Teaching writing used to be just something that high school teachers
did the way it had always been done and that college teachers avoided
(they made graduate students do it.) Recently, however, people have
figured out that the way you teach writing and what you teach as good
writing involve a lot of assumptions about discourse, cognition, language,
and imagination (among other issues.) Some people are writing about
the implications that research in communication, linguistics, cognitive
science, and psychology have for teaching writing. For complicated
reasons, I have the feeling that I'm not seeing the best which is being
done in that area. In addition, I seem only to run across things written
by writing teachers who are dabbling in linguistics, and so on, rather
than by people who are really trained in those fields dabbling in teaching
writing.
So, I am looking for references ...

Subject: Common LISP Src for Tomita Algorithm
I am looking for the Common LISP source of Tomita's parsing algorithm and
LR-parse table generator. Any help in this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanx in advance for any help in this matter.

Subject: Object Oriented database mgmt
I've recently been introduced to the concept of object-oriented
database management, but only very superficially.
It seems like an intriguing field, and I'm eager to find out more
about it.
Q: What are the primary advantages/disadvantages when compared to
traditional relational or network DBMSs ?
Q: What types of data manipulation options do you gain by going the
object oriented route ? What do you lose ?
Q: What problem areas lend themselves most readily to object
oriented dbms solutions ?
Q: How does an object oriented query (or report) differ from its
relational counterpart ?
Essentially, I'm brand new to the technology.
I would greatly appreciate any answers/opinions about the above
questions and any pointers to introductory literature.
Please e-mail responses to me here or call me collect at
(619) 455-1398
Thanks,
Sean Rome

Hello AILIST-Users,
My name is Harald Eckert and I am an active researcher in the field of
AI, especially under a system analytical view. I`m interested in
gathering more information about the use of expert systems in commercial
environments and under commercial conditions.
So I ask all the AILIST-Users to give me more information about the following
topics:
1> The problem of the integration of an expert system (either a prototype or
a fully developed system) in its given environment in a factory, an office
a bank or wherever it is used. Are their publications worth reading ?
Reports from consulting companies or expert system developers ?
2> The problem of maintaining an expert system. Not only the shell but
the knowledge of the expert(s) coded in the system.
What techniques are suitable? Another cycle with a knowledge engineer,
using a knowledge acquisition tool or is it the experts` turn to do
this "refreshing" of the knowledge base?
3> The problem of augmenting the user response to an expert system,
the acceptance of such an system. Are their experiences, reports,
literature?
4> The problem of knowledge engineering not only under the view of
knowledge acquisition but under the view of an system analyst, dealing
with the problems of the management of a factory and the management of
of an expert system project, cost-benefit questions and much more.
Are their experiences, literature yet available for me ?
These are the main questions arising from my work in the Universitiy of
Karlsruhe, W-Germany.

Subject: ES in business, economic, and statistical forecasting
Dear Members,
I'm attending MS courses at Anatolia University and I'm at
dissertation level now. My subject is "An Expert Systems Approach
to Forecasting Techniques". I mean business, economic, and statistical
forecasting and I want to develop an Expert System with the ability of
learning, giving advice, and solving some forecasting models.
If anyone knows of any book or paper about or related to this
subject would you send me information about the sources. Please.
And how can I get it.
Yours Sincerely.
