Analysis of Behavior of Chemical Molecules : Rule Formation on Non-homogeneous Classes of Objects. AIM-215
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
An information processing model of some important aspects of
inductive reasoning is presented within the context of one
scientific discipline. Given a collection of experimental (mass
spectrometry) data from several chemical molecules the computer
program described here separates the molecules into "well-behaved"
subclasses and selects from the space of all explanatory processes
the "characteristic" processes for each subclass. The definitions of
"well-behaved" and "characteristic" embody several heuristics which
are discussed. Some results of the program are discussed which have
been useful to chemists and which lend credibility to this approach.
