A Meta-Analytic Review of Experiments Examining the Effects of Extrinsic Rewards on Intrinsic Motivation

by Edward L. Deci, Richard Koestner, Richard M. Ryan
"... A meta-analysis of 128 studies examined the effects of extrinsic rewards on intrinsic motivation. As predicted, engagement-contingent, completion-contingent, and performance-contingent rewards signifi-cantly undermined free-choice intrinsic motivation (d =-0.40,-0.36, and-0.28, respectively), as did ..."

-choice behavior (d = 0.33) and self-reported interest (d = 0.31). Tangible rewards tended to be more detrimental for children than college students, and verbal rewards tended to be less enhancing for children than college students. The authors review 4 previous meta-analyses of this literature and detail how

A Roadmap of Agent Research and Development

by Nicholas R. Jennings, Katia Sycara - INT JOURNAL OF AUTONOMOUS AGENTS AND MULTI-AGENT SYSTEMS , 1998
"... This paper provides an overview of research and development activities in the field of autonomous agents and multi-agent systems. It aims to identify key concepts and applications, and to indicate how they relate to one-another. Some historical context to the field of agent-based computing is give ..."

Wireless sensor networks: a survey

by I. F. Akyildiz, W. Su, Y. Sankarasubramaniam, E. Cayirci , 2002
"... This paper describes the concept of sensor networks which has been made viable by the convergence of microelectro-mechanical systems technology, wireless communications and digital electronics. First, the sensing tasks and the potential sensor networks applications are explored, and a review of fact ..."

The market for corporate control: The scientific evidence

by Michael C. Jensen, Richard S. Ruback - Journal of Financial Economics , 1983
"... This paper reviews much of the scientific literature on the market for corporate control. The evidence indicates that corporate takeovers generate positive gains, that target firm shareholders benefit, and that bidding firm shareholders do not lose. The gains created by corporate takeovers do not ap ..."

Towards flexible teamwork

by Milind Tambe - JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH , 1997
"... Many AI researchers are today striving to build agent teams for complex, dynamic multi-agent domains, with intended applications in arenas such as education, training, entertainment, information integration, and collective robotics. Unfortunately, uncertainties in these complex, dynamic domains obst ..."

Formalising trust as a computational concept

by Stephen Paul Marsh , 1994
"... Trust is a judgement of unquestionable utility — as humans we use it every day of our lives. However, trust has suffered from an imperfect understanding, a plethora of definitions, and informal use in the literature and in everyday life. It is common to say “I trust you, ” but what does that mean? T ..."

Robust Monte Carlo Localization for Mobile Robots

by Sebastian Thrun, Dieter Fox, Wolfram Burgard, Frank Dellaert , 2001
"... Mobile robot localization is the problem of determining a robot's pose from sensor data. This article presents a family of probabilistic localization algorithms known as Monte Carlo Localization (MCL). MCL algorithms represent a robot's belief by a set of weighted hypotheses (samples), whi ..."

to mobile robots equipped with range finders, a kernel density tree is learned that permits fast sampling. Systematic empirical results illustrate the robustness and computational efficiency of the approach.

A case study of open source software development: the Apache server

by Audris Mockus, Roy T. Fielding, James Herbsleb - In: Proceedings of the 22nd International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2000 , 2000
"... According to its proponents, open source style software development has the capacity to compete successfully, and perhaps in many cases displace, traditional commercial development methods. In order to begin investigating such claims, we examine the development process of a major open source applica ..."

application, the Apache web server. By using email archives of source code change history and problem reports we quantify aspects of developer participation, core team size, code ownership, productivity, defect density, and problem resolution interval for this OSS project. This analysis reveals a unique

Verb Semantics And Lexical Selection

This results in a series of problems for MT systems: inflexible verb sense definitions; difficulty in handling metaphor and new ..."

Visual interpretation of hand gestures for human-computer interaction: A review

by Vladimir I. Pavlovic, Rajeev Sharma, Thomas S. Huang - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 1997
"... The use of hand gestures provides an attractive alternative to cumbersome interface devices for human-computer interaction (HCI). In particular, visual interpretation of hand gestures can help in achieving the ease and naturalness desired for HCI. This has motivated a very active research area conc ..."
