We developed the experimentation platform COMPOzE for intention based composition. COMPOzE is based on constraint programming over finite domains of integers. We argue that constraint programming provides a suitable technology for this task and that the libraries and tools available for the constraint programming system Oz effectively support the implementation of COMPOzE. This work links the research areas of automatic music composition on one hand and finite domain constraint programming on the other, and contributes the tool COMPOzE, which practically demonstrates the potential of constraint programming to open up new areas of application for automatic music composition.","PeriodicalId":209171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Eighth IEEE International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115380929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mercer","doi":"10.1109/TAI.1996.560463","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/TAI.1996.560463","url":null,"abstract":"Forward checking (FC) is one of the most popular algorithms used to solve constraint satisfaction problems. A lazy variant of FC has been proposed called minimal forward checking (MFC). Previous empirical results suggest that MFC substantially outperforms FC when the fail first (FF) heuristic is not used. These results also suggest that the laziness of MFC can have substantial negative effects when the FF heuristic is used. To overcome this problem two extensions to the MFC algorithm are proposed, a new heuristic, called extra pruning (EXP), and the addition of conflict-directed backjumping (CBJ). An empirical investigation on a large test suite of hard randomly generated problems suggests that adding both EXP and CBJ to MFC-FF (MFC-CBJ-EXP-FF) is the best forward checking algorithm. Some theoretical relationships among the various algorithms are discussed.","PeriodicalId":209171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Eighth IEEE International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116444701","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nurse rostering is defined as a process of generating timetables for specifying the work shifts of nurses over a given period of time. This process is difficult because the human roster planner has to ensure that every rostering decision made complies with a mixture of hard hospital rules and soft nurse preference rules. Moreover, some nurse shift pre-assignments often break the regularity of wanted (or unwanted) shifts and reduce the choices for other unfilled slots. Soft constraints amount to disjunction, which can be modeled as choices in the search tree. This approach, although straightforward, incurs overhead in the search of solution. We propose redundant modeling, an effective way to speed up constraint propagation through cooperations among different models for the same problem, as a means to reduce search time. Experiments and pilot testing of the system confirm the feasibility of our method.","PeriodicalId":209171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Eighth IEEE International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128408340","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The application of evolutionary algorithms in time dependent optimization is receiving growing interest as potential applications are numerous ranging from mobile robotics to real time process command. Moreover, constant evaluation functions skew results relative to natural evolution so that it has become a promising gap to combine effectiveness and diversity in a genetic algorithm. This paper features both theoretical and empirical analysis of the behavior of genetic algorithms in such an environment. It presents a comparison between the effectiveness of traditional sample genetic algorithm (SGA) and the dual genetic algorithm (DGA) which is revealed to be a particularly adaptive tool for optimizing a lot of diversified classes of functions. This comparison has been performed on a model of a dynamical environment. Its characteristics are analyzed in order to establish the basis of a testbed for further experiments. We discuss fundamental properties that explain the effectiveness of the dual paradigm to manage dynamical environments.","PeriodicalId":209171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Eighth IEEE International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129442947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various preprocessing techniques were investigated to obtain maximum diagnostic information despite the inherent problems of real industrial data. The orthonormal technique highlighted good generalisation ability in fast machine learning time.

The idea is that when a conflict appears (due to observing exceptional situations), one first localizes the sets of pieces of information which are responsible for conflicts. Next, using a specificity principle (subclasses must be preferred to general classes), the authors attach priorities to default rules inside each conflict. These priorities, implicitly computed from the knowledge base, reflect the hierarchical structure of the knowledge base. Lastly, they rank-order and solve conflicts in a way that only minimal sets of rules are given up from the knowledge base in order to restore its consistency. This local method of dealing with conflicts addresses correctly the well known problems of specificity, irrelevance, blocking of inheritance, etc.","PeriodicalId":209171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Eighth IEEE International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126360239","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The learning environment includes an authoring tool with which the relationships between entities can be easily expressed. These relationships are utilised directly by a natural language interface to engage the learner. By closely analysing the activities of learners using the tool, this study compares natural language exploration with the basic interaction provided by hypermedia environments. To facilitate this study, extensive data was compiled using both qualitative and quantitative techniques. Analysis of learner interactions revealed differences in their interactive behaviour. The group engaged in a discourse was more likely to be examining a coherent set of entities at any one time, and was less likely to experience feelings of disorientation. It is concluded that the natural language tool supports a wide range of learning styles.","PeriodicalId":209171,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings Eighth IEEE International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"439 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125763548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
