A Theory of the Learnable
, 1984
"... Humans appear to be able to learn new concepts without needing to be programmed explicitly in any conventional sense. In this paper we regard learning as the phenomenon of knowledge acquisition in the absence of explicit programming. We give a precise methodology for studying this phenomenon from ..."

Humans appear to be able to learn new concepts without needing to be programmed explicitly in any conventional sense. In this paper we regard learning as the phenomenon of knowledge acquisition in the absence of explicit programming. We give a precise methodology for studying this phenomenon from
The effect of national culture on the choice of entry mode
- Journal of International Business Studies
, 1988
"... Abstract. Characteristics of national cultures have frequently been claimed to influence the selection of entry modes. This article investigates this claim by developing a theoretical argument for why culture should influence the choice of entry. Two hypotheses are derived which relate culture to en ..."

to entry mode choice, one focussing on the cultural distance between countries, the other on attitudes towards uncertainty avoidance. Using a multinomial logit model and controlling for other effects, the hypotheses are tested by analyzing data on 228 entries into the United States market by acquisition
Eliciting self-explanations improves understanding
- Cognitive Science
, 1994
"... Learning involves the integration of new information into existing knowledge. Generoting explanations to oneself (self-explaining) facilitates that integration process. Previously, self-explanation has been shown to improve the acquisition of problem-solving skills when studying worked-out examples. ..."

Labeled Faces in the Wild: A Database for Studying Face Recognition in Unconstrained Environments
"... Face recognition has benefitted greatly from the many databases that have been produced to study it. Most of these databases have been created under controlled conditions to facilitate the study of specific parameters on the face recognition problem. These parameters include such variables as posi ..."

A wireless sensor network for structural monitoring
- SENSYS ’04: PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2ND INTERNATIONAL
, 2004
"... Structural monitoring—the collection and analysis of structural response to ambient or forced excitation–is an important application of networked embedded sensing with significant commercial potential. The first generation of sensor networks for structural monitoring are likely to be data acquisitio ..."

acquisition systems that collect data at a single node for centralized processing. In this paper, we discuss the design and evaluation of a wireless sensor network system (called Wisden) for structural data acquisition. Wisden incorporates two novel mechanisms, reliable data transport using a hybrid of end

Hierarchies and the Organization of Knowledge in Production
- JOURNAL OF POLITICAL ECONOMY
, 2000
"... This paper studies how communication allows for the specialized acquisition of knowledge. It shows that a knowledge-based hierarchy is a natural way to organize the acquisition of knowledge when matching problems with those who know how to solve them is costly. In such an organization, production wo ..."

Short-Term Retention of Individual Verbal Items
- Journal of Experimental Psychology
, 1959
"... It is apparent that the acquisition of verbal habits depends on the effects of a given occasion being carried over into later repetitions of the situation. Nevertheless, textbooks separate acquisition and retention into distinct categories. The limitation of discussions of retention to long-term cha ..."

The presence of a retentive function within the acquisition process was postulated by Hull (1940
Technological acquisitions and the innovation performance of acquiring firms: a longitudinal study
- STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT JOURNAL
, 2001
"... This paper examines the impact of acquisitions on the subsequent innovation performance of acquiring firms in the chemicals industry. We distinguish between technological acquisitions, acquisitions in which technology is a component of the acquired firm’s assets, and nontechnologi-cal acquisitions: ..."

ARTIFICIAL MIND SYSTEM – AS AN ENGINEERING APPROACH TO THE LANGUAGE ACQUISITION STUDIES
"... The approaches utilising Artificial Intelligence (AI) 1 have provided useful tools towards elucidating the various faculties of human language. This presentation will focus on the contribution of an engineering approach to linguistics and the possibility of an AI approach for language acquisition. T ..."
Abstract
- Add to MetaCart
. This study briefly introduces a novel connectionist model. Artificial neural network (ANN) is a branch of AI study. Research in the field of ANN has included attempts to simulate the faculty of human language acquisition by developing a model and investigating its behaviour by the extensive use of machinery
