Polylogarithmic-Overhead Piecemeal Graph Exploration
- In Proceedings of the 11th Annual Conference on Computational Learning Theory (COLT
, 1998
"... We introduce a new traversal technique in the context of piecemeal exploration of unknown graphs. The problem of learning a graph via piecemeal exploration requires a robot to create a complete map of its environment, subject to two constraints. First, it cannot jump between non-adjacent vertices in ..."

Piecemeal versus integrated design: framing meets design thinking
- Purdue University
, 2014
"... Abstract: Systems thinking is an important component of engineering design thinking but one that is often difficult for beginning designers. In this paper, we present an empirically grounded case that sometimes the novice-like design behaviors emerge, not due to a lack of skills/knowledge on part of ..."

of the student designers, but by the nature of the way the activity is structured and the implicit and explicit messages communicated to the students on the nature of the design task. Our analysis draws on video-records of brainstorming and design review and briefing meetings between students, instructors
DEVELOPING STATISTICAL REASONING IN A “PIECEMEAL ” SECONDARY STATISTICS CURRICULUM—THE NEXT STEP
"... In the last decade, statistics and data analysis have become a more visible component of the secondary school mathematics curriculum in the United States. In most cases, statistics and data analysis topics have been divided up and spread through the mathematics curriculum. However, many important co ..."

concepts of statistics are not mathematical in nature and are not easily integrated into existing mathematics courses. As a consequence, most students complete their secondary education having seen a number of graphical and numerical statistical methods but having not encountered many key concepts required
Understanding the nature of face processing impairment in autism: Insights from behavioral and electrophysiological studies
- Developmental Neuropsychology
, 2005
"... This article reviews behavioral andelectrophysiological studies of faceprocessingand discusses hypotheses for understanding the nature of face processing impairments in autism. Based on results of behavioral studies, this studydemonstrates that individuals with autism have impaired face discriminati ..."

The Resource Pooling Principle
- ACM CCR
, 2008
"... Since the ARPAnet, network designers have built localized mechanisms for statistical multiplexing, load balancing, and failure resilience, often without understanding the broader implications. These mechanisms are all types of resource pooling, which means making a collection of resources behave lik ..."

like a single pooled resource. We believe that the natural evolution of the Internet is that it should achieve resource pooling by harnessing the responsiveness of multipath-capable end systems. We argue that this approach will solve the problems and limitations of the current piecemeal approaches.
CONSTRUCTION AND VERIFICATION OF A LARGE PHYLOGENY OF MARSUPIALS
"... Much of the controversy over marsupial phylogeny at higher-categorical levels stems from the piecemeal nature of the contributing studies or the paucity of taxonomic representation in many of them. Yet the problems of constructing large phylogenies are manyfold, involving the initial generation of t ..."

Powerful People Make Good Decisions Even When They Consciously Think
"... Having power means that one makes decisions that determine the outcomes of less powerful others (e.g., Deprét & Fiske, 1993). In fact, powerful people sometimes face multiple impactful, complicated decisions a day, with little room for error. How do they accomplish this? Recent research indicate ..."

-thought theory (UTT; Dijksterhuis & Nordgren, 2006) suggests that such abstract thinking leads to better decisions when the situation is complex. Individuals who think consciously are unable to consider all relevant attributes, due to consciousness ’ limited capacity. The piecemeal nature of conscious
P3: Computational Environment to Support Design Collaboration
- Automation in Construction
, 1998
"... The work reported in this paper addresses the paradoxical state of the construction industry (also known as A/E/C, for Architecture, Engineering and Construction), where the design of highly integrated facilities is undertaken by severely fragmented teams, leading to diminished performance of both p ..."

processes and products. The construction industry has been trying to overcome this problem by partitioning the design process hierarchically or temporally. While these methods are procedurally efficient, their piecemeal nature diminishes the overall performance of the project. Computational methods intended
Incremental Natural-Language Processing with Schema-Tree Adjoining Grammars
, 1994
"... 1 Schema--Tree Adjoining Grammars are proposed for compressing natural--language grammars. Their rules allow for regular expressions associated with inner nodes of elementary trees referring to individual sons of inner nodes in order to describe their occurrences and repetitions in the set of elemen ..."

of elementary trees specified. In the following, the adequacy of representing a possibly infinite set of trees by one scheme is discussed for incremental natural--language processing where the input is consumed and processed piecemeal. The basic idea is to avoid decisions for which not enough information
Order Eects in Incremental Learning
"... Intelligent agents, including humans, exist in an environment that changes over time. Thus, it seems natural that models of learning in such agents take into account the fact that this process also takes place over time. We often refer to such agents as incremental learners, in that the temporal nat ..."
