Interoperability is a key property of enterprise applications, which is hard to achieve due to the large number of interoperating components and semantic heterogeneity. The inherent complexity of interoperability problems implies that there exists no silver bullet to solve them. Rather, the knowledge about how to solve wicked interoperability problems is hidden in the application cases that exp...

Since Chase and Simon presented their influential paper on perception in chess in 1973, the use of chunks has become the subject of a number of studies into the cognitive behavior of human game players. However, the nature of chunks has remained elusive, and the reason for this lies in the lack of using a general cognitive theory to explain the nature of chunks. In this paper it will be argued ...

ed representation should be developed. In Tal, cases are represented as abstractions of actual board situations. Second, one needs to automate the method of building cases. For an adequate level of expertise, a considerable case library is likely to be needed. Given this factor, and the availability of extensive databases of chess games, it makes sense to have a method that will generate a case...

Even newborn infants are able to extract structure from a stream of sensory inputs and yet, how this is achieved remains largely a mystery. We present a connectionist autoencoder model, TRACX2, that learns to extract sequence structure by gradually constructing chunks, storing these chunks in a distributed manner across its synaptic weights, and recognizing these chunks when they re-occur in th...

Indexing large bodies of data is necessary to enable satisfactory search results. Ontologies serve as fixed vocabularies to index data from different viewpoints. We describe how AIDAS, a software tool, automatically divides the source data (PDF documents) into reusable chunks, how it automatically indexes these chunks and stores them in a database to enable reuse.

In this paper, we present methods of transliteration and back-transliteration. In Korean technical documents and web documents, many English words and Japanese words are transliterated into Korean words. These transliterated words are usually technical terms and proper nouns, so it is hard to find them in a dictionary. Therefore an automatic transliteration system is needed. Previous transliter...

Many learning systems must confront the problem of run time after learning being greater than run time before learning. This utility problem has been a particular focus of research in explanation-based learning (EBL). This paper shows how the cost increase of a learned rule in an EBL system can be analyzed by characterizing the learning process as a sequence of transformations from a problem so...

Large backup and restore systems may have a petabyte or more data in their repository. Such systems are often compressed by means of deduplication techniques, that partition the input text into chunks and store recurring chunks only once. One of the approaches is to use hashing methods to store fingerprints for each data chunk, detecting identical chunks with very low probability for collisions...
