Measuring The Quality Of Teacher Assignments And Student Work In High School English And Mathematics
-
Towards a Quantitative Platform Independent Analysis of Knowledge Systems
The Halo Pilot collaboratively developed a taxonomy of failures with the goal of creating a common framework of metrics against which we could measure inter- and intra- system failure characteristics…
-
A Bayesian method for identifying missing enzymes in predicted metabolic pathway databases
We have developed a method that efficiently combines homology and pathway-based evidence to identify candidates for filling pathway holes in Pathway/Genome databases.
-
Toward a Theory of Qualitative Reasoning about Plans
We define a qualitative framework for reasoning about plan structure, defining a set of plan relations that characterize key interactions among plan components and a calculus for reasoning qualitatively about…

A Multimodal Learning Interface for Sketch, Speak and Point Creation of a Schedule Chart
We present a video demonstration of an agent-based test bed application for ongoing research into multi-user, multimodal, computer-assisted meetings.
-
Computational Prediction of Human Metabolic Pathways from the Complete Human Genome
We present a computational pathway analysis of the human genome that assigns enzymes encoded therein to predicted metabolic pathways.
