EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION IN COMPUTER SCIENCE
Abstract:
By analyzing more than 400 research articles, journals, conferences and articles taken randomly from ACM in 1993, it has been observed that researches published most of their work without any experimental results or proofs. The research papers related to Optical Engineering (OE) and Neural Computation (NC) were also studied. It has been found that 40% of these papers do not perform experiments to validate their claim. The ratio of lack of Quantitative Evaluation is 15% in OE is and 12% percent in NC. The journals that focus on Software Engineering field and that do not perform experimental evaluation are more than 50%. The research papers that allocate one fifth or more of their space to

40% of articles do not provide results on the basis of experiments. For software engineering field the percentage is even higher. There are very few number of articles that claim their result purely on experimental evaluation. As a whole this situation is freighting for CS field. Our study showed that Computer Science do not meet the standards that are followed by Engineering and Natural Sciences. In our study the standards followed by Neural Computing are much better than that of CS, despite the fact that NC is only six years old. One of the alarming observations made in the study is that the ratio of scientists in CS is less as compared to NC and OE. Facing difficulties for experimental evaluation is another factor in CS. Although psychologist have developed techniques to deals difficulties faced in experimental evaluation, but unfortunately CS has not yet welcomed those techniques. These techniques are also very costly and complicated to be tested by CS scientists. CS labs also lack facilities for experimental evaluation of their own results. Scientists face difficulties in developing equipments to prove their claim solely based on experiments. Question arises why to go for experimental results if papers are acknowledged without it. Experimental based evaluation also fear for damaging career. We all are well aware of the fact that experimental work is …show more content…
Like these fields Computer Science also used observations and modeling to implement the new ideas. Over the past years, no matter the empirical research has been conducted in the field of Computer Science, but the ratio is still very low. Another problem in the field of Computer Science is that if a certain claim / problem is addressed then it will be valid in limited scope and in specific scenario. At last but not the least certain steps should be required to encourage researchers to carry out research on solid experimental basis. In this regard cultural change is also required both individual and community level. Certain Steps are also required for experimental evaluation in the field of Computer Science. One possible step would be to create forums that encourage papers that focus on experimental work. Conference on Experimental Compauter Science, Journal of Empirical Software Engineerin, ACM Journal of Experimental Algorithm, Workshops on Efficient and Experimental Algorithms are such examples that promotes experimental research. Another problem is that all of the above mentioned examples to promote experiment work, focused narrowly and only contains limited number of papers. Besides all the limitations and problems of conducting experimental work, it has been
Section 3 demonstrates the examination addresses that can be tended to and the investigation criteria followed in this review for assurance of fundamental papers. Segment 4 demonstrates the examination of results that we acquire in section3. Section5 exhibits the answers to the research questions by checking on and dissecting the chose papers and illustrating their primary components.
Question 1 b. In what circumstances di you think scientists are justified in not sharing their results with others before research is completed? o I believe that scientists should not share their results until research is completed and they have fully justified their results. I believe so because other researchers and scientists use results in helping them with experiments, developing models, curing disease, etc. so if quickly scientists share results or models that they are not sure of scientists should use wrong information.
They should also consider how challenges are dealt with, Look at the research, and how science is believed and proven by the experiments, research and the actual progress that science has made. https://www.verywell.com/what-is-a-pseudoscience-2795470?utm_term=pseudoscience+examples&utm_content=p1-main-1-title&utm_medium=sem&utm_source=msn_s&utm_campaign=adid-276ea10e-583a-4cc8-af66-0d83d166a6c6-0-ab_mse_ocode-35484&ad=semD&an=msn_s&am=exact&q=pseudoscience+examples&o=35484&qsrc=999&l=sem&askid=276ea10e-583a-4cc8-af66-0d83d166a6c6-0-ab_mse
If animals testing was not done the scientist could have studied the experiment before to predict the
1.1 Background of the Research Technology has always develop for a long time. Until today, it is still develops at a stunning pace. As a matter of fact, technology has touched every aspect of life; from the way we move by using a horse changed into automobile, from walking on the land to flying in the air and reach farther distance. The products we are using in our daily life also produced by the technology. Under those circumstances, including the economy, politics, and also society, are affected by technology.
This evidence shows that anybody can figure out how to make technology better even if they face really hard and daunting problems with
Today, in the most academic schools and institutions, we have seen that both of researchers and sponsors have similar thoughts about what kinds of reporting should be completed during and at the end of research process, which make the findings coming out nicely and correctly. Additionally, a good report always refle cts the quality of materials and resources
I wish to perform various research that will contribute to the collective advancement of what humans know and are capable of doing. Whether the findings are major or minor, they could
Scientific experiments can have little significance. Others can change lives. In Daniel Keyes’ 1966 novel Flowers for Algernon, Charlie Gordon partakes in an experiment designed to increase his intelligence. However, the experiment ends up failing. In Robert Louis Stevenson’s
Turing himself unknown to him, created a great race to make a better and more complex artificial intelligence with this paper. The article since 1950 has been cited over 10,000 times. The way this article revolutionized has not been matched by any other paper in the computing world. Turing himself wore many hats in his life. He was mathematician, code breaker and computer scientist.
The Turing test has become the most widely accepted test of artificial intelligence and the most influential. There are also considerable arguments that the Turing test is not enough to confirm intelligence. Legg and Hutter (2007) cite Block (1981) and Searle (1980) as arguing that a machine may appear intelligent by using a very large set of
Discussion Forum Post Week 7 Univ. 1001 Job postings often state that the successful applicant must have "superior critical thinking and problem solving skills. " Employers tell college administrators that graduates, both from undergraduate and graduate programs, often lack these skills. 1. Having read this week's assigned materials, and having a clear understanding of what is meant by "critical thinking," why are employers making these comments?
The brain is fully interconnected with logic and memory intimately cross-linked at billions of times density and diversity of that found in a modern computer. Neuromorphic chips aims to process the information in fundamentally different way from the traditional hardware, which mimicking the brain's architecture to deliver huge increase in the computer's thinking and its responding power. Miniaturization has delivered the massive increases in the
I do not believe the field has been developed to its potential in any regard, and feel that considerable progress can be made to improve the interactive experience that users have with an artificial intelligence application. This genuine intrigue combined with my curiosity for the subject matter and the limitless potential of the field are the reason why I wish to pursue a greater depth of knowledge in artificial
Thus, after the invention of computer, the gap between man and machine has been bridged up. The computer fever his caught everybody from a child of three to an old man of seventy. Everyone is talking about computers networking from a child of three or an old man seventy. How important computer has become in life today. This shows developed country in the world is equipped with a computer.
