Extension of set-based inference mechanism for predicate logic design constraints with an application to automotive power window design
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 2000.

Compiler techniques for MATLAB programs
… code. To perform the translation, an inference mechanism is necessary to generate the declarations for a typed language, to select the appropriate functions and operations, and to allocate the necessary space. The inference mechanism developed for this MATLAB-to-Fortran 90 compiler …

A framework for computer-based knowledge management systems
… of knowledge quality measure and a simple inference mechanism in order to probe, learn and adapt the KMS with the changing needs of its users.

XML-Based Agent Scripts and Inference Mechanisms
… Artificial Intelligence field is to implement mechanisms that enable computers to emulate human dialogue. The recently developed ALICEbots, virtual agents with underlying AIML scripts, by A.L.I.C.E. foundation, use AIML scripts - a subset of XML - as the underlying pattern database for question …

A methodology for parsimoniously structuring a set of activities
… the initial input; (4) establishing a transitive inference mechanism based upon previous responses; (5) generating a logical combination of relationships based on previous responses; (6) storing the relationship for each pair of activities in a relation matrix; and (7) outputting the relationships …

Bayesian Belief Network (BBN)-based advisory system development for steam generator replacement project management
… management, systematic decision making, inference mechanism, knowledge representation and model modification for newly acquired knowledge. Two modes of advisory system have been constructed. As the first mode, the predictive mode has been developed, which can predict future project …

Learning in the social context : inference, exploration and evaluation in early childhood
… groundwork for a unified account of a rational inference mechanism that underlies this remarkable human faculty to learn so much, so fast, from so little. The first study (Chapter 2) provides evidence that 16-month-old infants can use co-variation information among agents and objects to infer …

Adaptation of business rules in business workflow systems
… dependencies, we cannot have an efficient mechanism for business rules adaptation in real-time. To tackle the configuration problem, this research proposed a business rule component-based formal model for development of business workflows. The formal model accounts for logical dependencies …

An integrated systems approach to QFD
… in the correlation matrices by utilising an inference mechanism and multi-valued logic theory.<br/><br/>An integrated systems approach to QFD is eventually developed that forms a synergy between QFD, Fuzzy Logic/Fuzzy sets and the Taguchi Method. This results in a superior approach that …

A Process Modelling Framework Based on Point Interval Temporal Logic with an Application to Modelling Patient Flows
… modelling standards do not offer any formal mechanism, so healthcare relies on critical path method (CPM) and program evaluation review technique (PERT), that also have limitations, i.e. finish-start barrier. It is imperative to specify the temporal constraints between the start and/or end of …
