Bridging the lexical chasm: statistical approaches to answer-finding
This paper investigates whether a machine can automatically learn the task of finding, within a large collection of candidate responses, the answers to questions.

Planning with Conflicting Advice
This paper introduces two contrasting methods for planning with conflicting advice, suited to different user requirements. Soft enforcement embodies a heuristic approach that prefers planning choices that are consistent with…

An Ontology for Biological Function Based on Molecular Interactions
The article explores the notion of computing with function, and explains the importance of ontologies of function to bioinformatics.

Global Properties of the Metabolic Map of Escherichia coli
Here we present a computational analysis of the global properties of that network, which consists of 744 reactions that are catalyzed by 607 enzymes.

The EcoCyc and MetaCyc Databases
Both databases are queried using the Pathway Tools graphical user interface, which provides a wide variety of query operations and visualization tools.

Coordinating Planning Activity and Information Flow in a Distributed Planning System
Distributed SIPE (DSIPE) is a distributed planning system that provides decision support to human planners in a collaborative planning environment.

A Survey of Research in Distributed, Continual Planning
In this article, we describe a new paradigm for planning in complex, dynamic environments, which we term distributed, continual planning (DCP). We argue that developing DCP systems will be necessary…

Characterizing the Performance of Multiple-Image Point-Correspondence Algorithms using Self-Consistency
A new approach to characterizing the performance of point- correspondence algorithms is presented.

At the Boundary of Workflow and AI
This paper describes how techniques from the AI community, specifically reactive control, planning, and scheduling, could be leveraged to develop powerful, next-generation adaptive workflow engines that provide many of the…

Task-based Information Management
We are constructing a system, called the Task-based Information Distribution Environment (TIDE), that delivers information to participants in a dynamic collaboration by evaluating the relevance of incoming and newly generated…

Integrated Pathway/Genome Databases and Their Role in Drug Discovery
We describe pathway-based analyses of the genomes of a number of medically relevant microorganisms, and a novel software tool that provides visualization of gene expression data on a diagram showing…
