Modelling Grassland Ecosystems
In this contribution a view of the promise and difficulties of modelling grassland is given. This is largely centred around work with a grassland ecosystem simulator known as the Hurley Pasture Model. A brief introduction sets forth possible reasons for building a large ecosystem model, and stresses the importance of modelling objectives. It is suggested that a model is de rigeur for any resear...
متن کاملResearch Challenges in Modelling Ecosystems
Ecosystems and their biodiversity have to be protected and preserved as sources of services and goods. The human population controls and modifies ecosystems to improve its health conditions and welfare. The consequences of human activities should be carefully monitored and ecosystems should be managed to protect all of the species and preserve their functioning. The development of strategies fo...
متن کاملModelling Uncertainty in 3APL
Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervising committee and fellow students, both at the artificial intelligence-thesis group at the Open Universiteit, and my collegue-thesis students in 'room 142' in Utrecht, for their support, thoughtful critique and interest. I owe especially much to Schil de Vos and Mehdi Dastani. Schil, having supervised tens of students at the Open Universiteit, k...
متن کاملModelling Uncertainty in Expertise
Almost all approaches of model-based development of knowledge-based systems are lacking an explicit handling of uncertain knowledge. Based on a KADS-oriented model of expertise our paper presents a general framework that enables the representation of uncertainty in a structure of causality. Based on an existing model of expertise we introduce a separate model of uncertainty, whose elements are ...
متن کاملModelling Uncertainty in Persuasion
Participants in argumentation often have some doubts in their arguments and/or the arguments of the other participants. In this paper, we model uncertainty in beliefs using a probability distribution over models of the language, and use this to identify which are good arguments (i.e. those with support with a probability on or above a threshold). We then investigate three strategies for partici...
