Even with powerful numerical computers, exploring complex dynamical systems requires significant human effort and judgment to prepare simulations and to interpret numerical results. This paper describes one-aspect of a computer program, KAM, that can autonomously prepare numerical simulations, and can automatically generate high-level, qualitative interpretations of the quantitative results. Gi...

However, among women who did have significant coronary artery disease (CAD), an equal proportion went on to have coronary revascula...
