چکیده
■ The Eighth International Workshop on Qualitative Reasoning about Physical Systems (QR ‘94) was held on 7–10 June 1994 in Nara, Japan. Fifty-three people participated, and 34 papers were presented in either oral or poster sessions. The papers either addressed core issues of qualitative reasoning or extended the field along three axes: (1) cognitive modeling, (2) mathematical sophistication, and (3) application. Mita’s selfmaintenance copier and IBM’s mechanism design and analysis using configuration spaces were demonstrated, convincing the participants of the promising role of qualitative-reasoning techniques in engineering and manufacturing domains.

متن کاملThe Effect of Bayesian Reasoning Training on the Results of Clinical Reasoning Tests of Interns
Introduction: Clinical reasoning includes a range of thinking about clinical medicine at all stages of patient evaluation. Bayesian theory can be used to refute or confirm differential diagnoses in the clinical reasoning process. In this way, by learning the basic mathematical language of probability in medicine, we can change our beliefs according to new evidence. The aim of this study is to i...

متن کاملEfficient Qualitative Kinematics
A theory of qualitative kinematics is required for qualitative reasoning about the motion of objects in space . Such reasoning is important for many physical problem-solving tasks, such as design or robot plan ning. The practicality of earlier work has been limited by the complexity and non-compositionality of computing with configuration space constraints . This paper describes a much more eff...
