Learning Curves For Energy Technology: A Critical Assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In this paper, which forms a chapter in the forthcoming Book “Delivering a Low Carbon Electricity System: Technologies, Economics and Policy”, Jamasb and Kohler revisit the literature on learning curves and their application to energy technology and ...

Construction Procurement: Modelling Bidders’ Learning in Recurrent Bidding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Construction remains a significant area of public expenditure. An understanding of the process of changes in construction pricing, and how the process can be manipulated through the release of bidding feedback information is vital, in order to best ...

Online Learning in Discrete Hidden Markov Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present and analyse three online algorithms for learning in discrete Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) and compare them with the Baldi-Chauvin Algorithm. Using the Kullback-Leibler divergence as a measure of generalisation error we draw learning curves in ...

Alchemical and structural distribution based representation for improved QML

open access: yes, 2017
We introduce a representation of any atom in any chemical environment for the generation of efficient quantum machine learning (QML) models of common electronic ground-state properties.

The learning curve [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 2004
Bridgewater and colleagues have studied the surgical results of surgeons in each of their first four years of independent practice and report that there is a learning curve.1 To explain the concept of a learning curve a surgeon writing in the New Yorker magazine chose for his example the insertion of a central venous line into the subclavian vein by ...

Learning Curves for Mutual Information Maximization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
An unsupervised learning procedure based on maximizing the mutual information between the outputs of two networks receiving different but statistically dependent inputs is analyzed (Becker and Hinton, Nature, 355, 92, 161).

Learning curves and changing product attributes: the case of wind turbines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The heuristic concept of learning curves describes cost reductions as a function of cumulative production. A study of the Liberty shipbuilders suggested that product quality and production scale are other relevant factors that affect costs.

Forecasting technology costs via the Learning Curve - Myth or Magic? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
To further our understanding of the effectiveness of learning or experience curves to forecast technology costs, a statistical analysis using historical data has been carried out.

The dynamics of syntax acquisition: facilitation between syntactic structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper sets out to show how facilitation between different clause structures operates over time in syntax acquisition. The phenomenon of facilitation within given structures has been widely documented, yet inter-structure facilitation has rarely been
