This paper describes a language for constructing problem-solving programs. The language can manipulate several data structures, including ordered and unordered sets.
This report gives a preliminary account of the construction of a low-cost laser system for providing data on defective solder joints on printed circuit boards. The system possesses high resolution, excellent signal-to-noise ratio, and a substantial depth of focus.
An Interface has been devised for use on the PDP-10 computer that allows FORTRAN (or FORTRAN-compatible MACRO) subroutines and functions to be run under the LISP operating system.
A research project applying artificial intelligence techniques to development of integrated robot systems is described. The experimental facility consists of an SDS-940 computer and associated programs controlling a wheeled vehicle that carries a TV camera and other sensors.
Existing models of plan inference (PI) in conversation have assumed that the agent whose plan is being inferred (the actor) and the agent drawing the inference (the observer) have identical beliefs about actions in the domain.
