Finding Analogues for Innovative Design
We present a heuristic mapping engine that evaluates a candidate analogy based on features of the mappings between the devices’ structures, behaviors, and functions.

Adapting CLIM Applications for Use on the World Wide Web
We have developed a Web server tool, written in Common Lisp, that allows any existing graphical user interface application written using the Common Lisp Interface Manager (CLIM) to hook easily…

Smart cars and smart roads
This paper describes two projects applying computer vision to Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems.

The Generic Frame Protocol
The Generic Frame Protocol (GFP) is an application program interface for accessing knowledge bases stored in frame knowledge representation systems (FRSs).

WebWatcher: A Learning Apprentice for the World Wide Web
We describe an information seeking assistant for the world wide web. This agent, called WebWatcher, interactively helps users locate desired information by employing learned knowledge about which hyperlinks are likely…
-
WebWatcher: Knowledge Navigation in the World Wide Web
We describe a learning apprentice system, called WebWatcher, which both performs the kind of indexing used by Web catalogers like Lycos, and attempts to exploit the two sources of knowledge…

A State-Space Striatal Model
This chapter considers the role of the striatum in computing purposeful state changes.
-
WebWatcher: Machine Learning and Hypertext
This paper describes the first implementation of WebWatcher, a Learning Apprentice for the World Wide Web.

A Storage System for Scalable Knowledge Representation
Our research investigates the hypothesis that one can employ an existing database management system (DBMS) as a storage subsystem for an FRS, to provide high-speed access to large, shared KBs.
-
Registration without Correspondences
We present a method for registering images of complex 3-D surfaces that does not require explicit correspondences between features across the images.

Distinguishing Knowledge Bases and Data Bases: Who’s on First and What’s on Second
This paper compares and contrasts relational data base management systems (RDBMSs) and frame knowledge representation systems (FRSs). We compare the capabilities that RDBMSs and FRSs provide to designers and users…
