Weak Ordering -- A New Definition
, 1990
"... A memory model for a shared memory, multiprocessor commonly and often implicitly assumed by programmers is that of sequential consistency. This model guarantees that all memory accesses will appear to execute atomically and in program order. An alternative model, weak ordering, offers greater perfor ..."

performance potential. Weak ordering was first defined by Dubois, Scheurich and Briggs in terms of a set of rules for hardware that have to be made visible to software. The central hypothesis of this work is that programmers prefer to reason about sequentially consistent memory, rather than having to think
A rational analysis of the selection task as optimal data selection
- 67 – 215535 Deliverable 4.1
, 1994
"... Human reasoning in hypothesis-testing tasks like Wason's (1966, 1968) selection task has been depicted as prone to systematic biases. However, performance on this task has been assessed against a now outmoded falsificationist philosophy of science. Therefore, the experimental data is reassessed ..."

Synaptic plasticity and memory: an evaluation of the hypothesis.
- Annu. Rev. Neurosci.,
, 2000
"... Abstract Changing the strength of connections between neurons is widely assumed to be the mechanism by which memory traces are encoded and stored in the central nervous system. In its most general form, the synaptic plasticity and memory hypothesis states that "activity-dependent synaptic plas ..."

Image Change Detection Algorithms: A Systematic Survey
- IEEE Transactions on Image Processing
, 2005
"... Detecting regions of change in multiple images of the same scene taken at different times is of widespread interest due to a large number of applications in diverse disciplines, including remote sensing, surveillance, medical diagnosis and treatment, civil infrastructure, and underwater sensing. T ..."

. This paper presents a systematic survey of the common processing steps and core decision rules in modern change detection algorithms, including significance and hypothesis testing, predictive models, the shading model, and background modeling. We also discuss important preprocessing methods, approaches
Automatic vigilance: the attention-grabbing power of negative social information
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
, 1991
"... One of the functions of automatic stimulus evaluation is to direct attention toward events that may have undesirable consequences for the perceiver's well-being. To test whether attentional resources are automatically directed away from an attended task to undesirable stimuli, Ss named the colo ..."

for undesirable traits, as predicted by the automatic vigilance (but not a perceptual defense) hypothe-sis. In Experiment 3, a diagnosticity (or base-rate) explanation of the vigilance effect was ruled out. The implications for deliberate processing in person perception and stereotyping are discussed. There is a
The ‘‘shared manifold’’ hypothesis: from mirror neurons to empathy
- Journal of Consciousness Studies
, 2001
"... We are social animals. We share this feature with many other species. A complexity and sophistication that we do not observe among ants, bees or wolves, however, characteristically define the social life of primates. This complexity and sophistication is epitomized at its highest level by the social ..."

An inference rule for hypothesis generation
- In Proceedings of the Twelfth International Conference on Artificial Intelligence
, 1991
"... There are many new application fields for automated deduction where we have to apply abductive reasoning. In these applications we have to generate consequences of a given theory having some appropriate properties. In particular we consider the case where we have to generate the clauses containing i ..."

Hypothesis-driven Constructive Induction in AQ17: A Method and Experiments

The method starts by creating a set of rules from given examples using the AQ algorithm. These rules are then evaluated according to ..."

An Active Testing Model for Tracking Roads in Satellite Images
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE

A Theory of Learning Classification Rules

The main contributions of this thesis are a Bayesian theory of learning classification rules, the unification and comparison of this theory with some previous theories of learning, and two extensive applications of the theory to the problems of learning class probability trees and bounding error whe ..."

The framework has three components: the hypothesis space, the learning protocol, and criteria for successful learning. Several learning protocols are analysed in detail: queries, logical, noisy
