Johnson is a graduate of imperial College and has previously written a report on Expert Systems (July 1984), so he is familiar with work in other areas of machine intelligence. This report is better technically than one might expect from ...
متن کاملPropagation Models and Fitting Them for the Boolean Random Sets
In order to study the relationship between random Boolean sets and some explanatory variables, this paper introduces a Propagation model. This model can be applied when corresponding Poisson process of the Boolean model is related to explanatory variables and the random grains are not affected by these variables. An approximation for the likelihood is used to find pseudo-maximum likelihood esti...
متن کاملA Boolean Expression Language
We introduce the syntax and semantics for a language of Boolean expressions. A decision procedure for this language is presented, and the reader is led through exercises that establish its correctness. Later, we formally define an IF-expression language and show that it can be translated correctly into our language of Boolean expressions. We assume a familiarity with defining ACL2 functions and...
متن کاملA Large-Scale Comparison of Boolean vs. Natural Language Searching for the TREC-7 Interactive Track
Studies comparing Boolean and natural language searching with actual end-users are still inconclusive. The TREC interactive track provides a consensus-developed protocol for assessing this and other useroriented information retrieval research questions. We recruited 28 experienced information professionals with library degrees to participate in this year’s TREC-7 interactive experiment. Our res...
