    • LetS: An Expressional Loop Notation 

      Waters, Richard C. (1983-02-01)
      Many loops can be more easily understood and manipulated if they are viewed as being built up out of operations on sequences of values. A notation is introduced which makes this viewpoint explicit. Using it, loops can ...

    • Qualitative Process Theory 

      Forbus, Kenneth D. (1983-05-01)
      Things move, collide, flow, bend, heat up, cool down, stretch, break and boil. These and other things that happen to cause changes in objects over time are intuitively characterized as processes. To understand common ...

    • Nonlinear Interactions in a Dendritic Tree: Localization, Timing and Role in Information Processing 

      Poggio, Tomaso A; Koch, C. (1981-09-01)
      In a dendritic tree transient synaptic inputs activating ionic conductances with an equilibrium potential near the resting potential can veto very effectively other excitatory inputs. Analog operations of this type can ...
