Machine learning research 1989-90

Multifunctional knowledge bases offer a significant advance in artificial intelligence because they can support numerous expert tasks within a domain. As a result they amortize the costs of building a knowledge base over multiple expert systems and they reduce the brittleness of each system. Due to the inevitable size and complexity of multifunctional knowledge bases, their construction and maintenance require knowledge engineering and acquisition tools that can automatically identify interactions between new and existing knowledge. Furthermore, their use requires software for accessing those portions of the knowledge base that coherently answer questions. Considerable progress was made in developing software for building and accessing multifunctional knowledge bases. A language was developed for representing knowledge, along with software tools for editing and displaying knowledge, a machine learning program for integrating new information into existing knowledge, and a question answering system for accessing the knowledge base

Asia region population projections : 1989-90 edition

Of the 90 million people added to world population this year, half live in the Asia region. Asia's contribution to world population growth is proportional to its size and dwarfs the contribution of every other region. The scale of this contribution may be illustrated by the fact that India is adding to its population every year as many people as live in Australia. This paper studies population projections, covering almost two centuries from 1985 to 2150. The length of the projection period was chosen to allow populations to approach stability, which for several takes essentially the entire period. The paper begins with an introduction which explains what projection results are provided in the detailed tables, describes the projection methodology, and summarizes and interprets the main results.Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Health Indicators,Health Information&Communications Technologies,,Demographics

Africa region population projections : 1989-90 edition

The majority of populations in the Sub Saharan Africa region are growing rapidly. In some countries, where the average woman continues to have seven or more births, growth is as rapid as 4 percent a year. The population of the region as a whole is likely to double in slightly more than two decades, and after that, the region will be contributing more to annual world population growth than the far larger Asia region. The projections in this paper cover almost two centuries, from 1985 to 2150. The length of the projection period was chosen to allow populations to approach stability, which for several takes essentially the entire period.
