Testing in learning conjunctive invariants
We show a new approach in learning conjunctive invariants using dynamic testing of the program. Coming up with correct set of loop invariant is the most challenging part of any verification methods. Although new methods tend to generate a large number of possible invariants hoping this set contains …

An analysis of conjunctive-goal planning
This thesis develops a formal theory of planning, using a simple paradigm of planning that has been previously explored in work such as GPS, HACKER, STRIPS and NOAH. This thesis analyzes the goal interactions that occur when the goal is stated as a conjunction of sub-goals. In this analysis we …

Conjunctive polymorphic type checking with explicit types
… inference to succeed. In this way, the power of conjunctive types is preserved, yet compile-time type inference can be done for a large class of polymorphic functions, including those typeable with parametric types. To this end, we introduce a simple combinator based language with typing rules …

Conjunctive Conceptual Clustering: A Methodology and Experimentation (Learning)
… describes a machine learning methodology called conjunctive conceptual clustering. The methodology can find conceptual patterns in data as illustrated by three sample problems. In one problem, the method is used to rediscover categories of soybean disease when given a collection of 47 …

On stability and controllability of conjunctive Boolean networks
… this thesis on a special class of BNs, termed as conjunctive Boolean networks (CBNs). A BN is conjunctive if the associated value update rule is comprised of only AND operations. It is known that any trajectory of a finite dynamical system will enter a periodic orbit. Periodic orbits of a CBN are …

Optimal Conjunctive Management of Supplemental Irrigation Reservoirs and Cropland
Most claypan soil areas have inadequate groundwater supplies to provide wells for irrigation. Therefore, the establishment of reservoirs for storing rainfall and runoff water, seems to be the most likely source of irrigation water in such areas. However, the storage of runoff water for later reuse …

Artificial recharge for conjunctive use in irrigation : the San Joaquin Valley, California
One classical solution for dealing with surface water fluctuation is to construct a surface reservoir. However, because a surface reservoir requires too much land and has high negative impact on the environment, the use of a natural aquifer as a subsurface reservoir is proposed. In this solution, …

Relevance Thresholds: A Conjunctive/Disjunctive Model of End-User Cognition as an Evaluative Process
This investigation identifies end-user cognitive heuristics that facilitate judgment and evaluation during information retrieval (IR) system interactions. The study extends previous research surrounding relevance as a key construct for representing the value end-users ascribe to items retrieved …

Investigation of Partial Contributing Areas in Watersheds With a Conjunctive Surface Subsurface Flow Model
This research developed a physically based conjunctive flow model (CFM) coupling two-dimensional surface three-dimensional subsurface transport to simulate the total runoff in watersheds. In conjunction with the CFM, an overland flow-tracking program (OFTP) was developed to compute the PCA under …

The Effects of Manipulating One Requirement of a Conjunctive Schedule on Responding in the Pigeon
… increasing the ratio requirement of a conjunctive fixed-interval fixed-ratio schedule on responding during the fixed interval. Procedure. Three experimentally-naive homing pigeons initially trained to peck a red response key on a fixed-interval schedule (FI 180 sec) served as subjects. …

A hierarchical decision-making approach to resource management and valuation: The case of conjunctive water use
… are applied to the optimum management of conjunctive use of surface and ground water. Irrigation water pricing reform to improve efficiency and also to increase labor demand are seen as critical issues in India. Therefore, two alternative policy objective (welfare) specifications are …

Economic Analysis of Conjunctive Use of Water: The Case of Mahi-Kadana Irrigation Project in Gujarat, India
Canal irrigation systems in India are typically operated so all water demands of farmers are not met. This has lead to private investments in groundwater. Since private well capacity often exceeds the water needs of farm-well owners a significant portion of the ground irrigation water is sold to …

Hydrologic and hydraulic assessment of artificial recharge in the Sparta Aquifer of Union County, Arkansas
… treated surfacewater to local industries. This conjunctive use of surface- and groundwater has allowed the Sparta aquifer to recover somewhat. Exploring further possibilities for Union County, the author has evaluated the potential of artificial recharge by well injection. A MODFLOW groundwater …

The Obligatory Use of The Preposition a Plus Disjunctive Pronoun After Certain Verbs in French
… verbs in Modern French which do not accept the conjunctive (indirect object) pronoun marked {+human} under certain circumstances. These include so-called verbs of motion, e.g., je vais a lui, verbs like penser, e.g., je pense a lui, and verbal expressions like faire attention, e.g., je fais …

Some theoretical and applied developments to support cognitive learning and adaptive testing
