Review of Heuristics: Intelligent Search Strategies for Computer Problem Solving

AI Magazine

Granting all of this, the only complaint that schema constrains mental ascriptions once a system might be raised is altogether excusable, if not also entirely is specified; but it puts no limit on which systems should minor, i.e., that the material presented might not be so have mental states ascribed to them."

Universal Subgoaling and Chunking: The Automatic Generation and Learning of Goal Hierarchies

Classics

"Chunking was first proposed as a model of human memory by Miller (1956), and has since become a major component of theories of cognition. More recently it has been proposed that a theory of human learning based on chunking ..." Kluwer Academic Publishers, Norwell, MA, USA.



Legged Robots That Balance

Classics

This book, by a leading authority on legged locomotion, presents exciting engineering and science, along with fascinating implications for theories of human motor control. It lays fundamental groundwork in legged locomotion, one of the least developed areas of robotics, addressing the possibility of building useful legged robots that run and balance. The book describes the study of physical machines that run and balance on just one leg, including analysis, computer simulation, and laboratory experiments. Contrary to expectations, it reveals that control of such machines is not particularly difficult. It describes how the principles of locomotion discovered with one leg can be extended to systems with several legs and reports preliminary experiments with a quadruped machine that runs using these principles.


Derivational analogy: A theory of reconstructive problem solving and expertise acquisition

Classics

CMU-CS-85-115, Carnegie Mellon University. Reprinted in Michalski, R. S., Carbonell, J. G., and Mitchell, T. M., (Eds.), Machine Learning: An Artificial Intelligence Approach, volume 2, chapter 14, pages 371-392. Morgan Kaufmann Publishers. Derivational analogy, a method of solving problems based on the transfer of past experience to new probiem situations, is discussed in the context of other general approaches to problem solving. The experience transfer process consists of recreating lines of reasoning, including decision sequences and accompanying justifications, that proved effective in solving particular problems requiring similar initial analysis. The role of derivational analogy in case-based reasoning and in automated expertise acquisition is discussed.
