Subject field(s)
  • Orbital Stations
CONT

Radiation constitutes one of the most important hazards for humans during long-term space missions. Leaving Earth's surface exposes human beings to a wide spectrum of radiation particles and energies. The International Space Station provides shielding, but some radiation gets through. Dosimetric Mapping, or Dosmap, attempts to record and map the different types of radiation that get inside Space Station and ultimately could cause harm to humans - including cataracts and cancer. Dosmap's radiation detection devices are called dosimeters. Because of the variety of particles and energies that make up radiation, no single type of dosimeter is capable of providing sufficient information to study radiation, so several different types of dosimeters are used in this experiment. Radiation gathered by the dosimeters will provide scientists information on the nature and distribution of radiation inside the Space Station.

OBS

The Dosimetric Mapping system [uses] two Dosimetry Telescopes called DOSTELS.

  • Artificial Intelligence
DEF

The identification of the relevant parts of the source to map to the appropriate parts of the target.

CONT

We have replaced bottom-up matching with an approach based on analogical mapping. Such an approach uses a set of heuristics to delimit what is to be "imported" from a base to a target domain at a given time. One such heuristic involves mapping previously formed abstractions, such as those embodying causal and planning rules.

Iterated maps are models of short-range interactions .... Yet, as we know from the Morse-Thue sequence, iterated maps can also produce aperiodic long-range order. Since iterated maps often lead to self-similarities, an explanation of quasicrystals by this approach means that the crystals (and their diffraction patterns) must exhibit scaling invariances.

Wenger presents the notions of internal vs. external representational mappings and of a presentational mapping between internal and external. An internal mapping refers to the knowledge used for information processing to solve problems in the domain, such as process models. An external mapping refers to the information presented to a student, such as the reification of a process model. An external mapping can be derived from an internal (via a presentational mapping) or directly from the knowledge or epistemic source.
