    One could then use the information to give support or cast doubt on the presence of that mechanism. Alternatively, if a second set of additional information can be generated using the same process as the original information, one can use the first (original) set of information to construct a hypothesis, and then test the hypothesis on the ...

  3. Production system (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Production_system_(computer...

    Production systems may vary on the expressive power of conditions in production rules. Accordingly, the pattern matching algorithm that collects production rules with matched conditions may range from the naive—trying all rules in sequence, stopping at the first match—to the optimized, in which rules are "compiled" into a network of inter-related conditions.

  4. Sequential pattern mining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequential_Pattern_Mining

    Sequential pattern mining is a topic of data mining concerned with finding statistically relevant patterns between data examples where the values are delivered in a sequence. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is usually presumed that the values are discrete, and thus time series mining is closely related, but usually considered a different activity.

  5. Matching (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_(statistics)

    The goal of matching is to reduce bias for the estimated treatment effect in an observational-data study, by finding, for every treated unit, one (or more) non-treated unit(s) with similar observable characteristics against which the covariates are balanced out (similar to the K-nearest neighbors algorithm).

  6. Pattern matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_matching

    In computer science, pattern matching is the act of checking a given sequence of tokens for the presence of the constituents of some pattern. In contrast to pattern recognition , the match usually has to be exact: "either it will or will not be a match."

  7. Matching law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_law

    The matching law, and the generalized matching law, have helped behavior analysts to understand some complex human behaviors, especially the behavior of children in certain conflict situations. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] James Snyder and colleague have found that response matching predicts the use of conflict tactics by children and parents during conflict ...

    Therefore, the group of patients with large stones using treatment A (group 3) does worse than the group with small stones, even if the latter used the inferior treatment B (group 2). Based on these effects, the paradoxical result is seen to arise because the effect of the size of the stones overwhelms the benefits of the better treatment (A).
