For a large number of data management problems, it would be very useful to be able to obtain a few samples from a data set, and to use the samples to guess the largest (or smalles...
Product configuration management is presented as a practical application for a prototype-based object model. Data model requirements for a configuration system are first introduced...
— We discuss a learning model that enables the creation of optimal learning strategies that suit learners’ needs. A customized learning content is delivered to learners as mana...
Planning is an artificial intelligence problem with a wide range of real-world applications. Genetic algorithms, neural networks, and simulated annealing are heuristic search met...
