This volume contains the papers that were presented at the Third Workshop onAlgorithmic Learning Theory, held in Tokyo in October 1992. In addition to 3invited papers, the volume contains 19 papers accepted for presentation, selected from 29 submitted extended abstracts. The ALT workshops have been held annually since 1990 and are organized and sponsored by the Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence. The main objective of these workshops is to provide an open forum for discussions and exchanges of ideasbetween researchers from various backgrounds in this emerging, interdisciplinary field of learning theory. The volume is organized into parts on learning via query, neural networks, inductive inference, analogical reasoning, and approximate learning.

This volume contains most of the papers presented at the 6th Logic Programming Conference held in Tokyo, June 22-24, 1987. It is the successor of Lecture Notes in Computer Science volumes 221 and 264. The contents cover foundations, programming, architecture and applications. Topics of particular interest are constraint logic programming and parallelism. The effort to apply logic programming to large-scale realistic problems is another important subject of these proceedings.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Discovery Science, DS'99, held in Tokyo, Japan, in December 1999. The 26 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited contributions and 25 poster presentations were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 74 submissions. The following topics are covered in their relation to discovery science: logic, inference, algorithmic learning, heuristic search, database management, data mining, networking, inductive logic programming, abductive reasoning, machine learning, constructive programming, intelligent agents, statistical methods, visualization, HCI, etc.

This book is a collection of cutting-edge studies on the functions and mechanisms of glycosylation in cancers. Along with progress in genomics and proteomics, new findings in the significance of these complex carbohydrates, through the regulation of cell signals, have been elucidated in a wide variety of biological events. This volume provides a comprehensive summary of glycosignals and their involvement in cancer, covering numerous topics such as glycosylation machineries, regulation of phenotypes, cell signaling, immune regulation, complex carbohydrate organization, and clinical applications. The contents have been organized to promote ready understanding, covering basic to clinical research and studies on micromolecules, to animal/human cells and tissues. This book is an essential read for students and young researchers interested in cancers and carbohydrates. Specialists in glycobiology will also benefit from the new results and approaches detailed here, which provide insights into future directions of functional studies of sugar chains in both basic and applied research.

Glycosignals in Cancer: Mechanisms of Malignant Phenotypes

This volume contains a selection of papers presented at the Seventh Logic Programming Conference that took place in Tokyo, April 11-14, 1988. It is the successor to the previous conference proceedings published as Lecture Notes in Computer Science Volumes 221, 264 and 315. The book covers various aspects of logic programming such as foundations, programming languages/systems, concurrent programming, knowledge bases, applications of computer-aided reasoning and natural language processing. The papers on foundations present theoretical results on "narrowing", a proof strategy for proving properties of Prolog programs based on inductionless induction and several issues in nonmonotonic reasoning. Of special interest to mathematicians is the paper on computer-aided reasoning, which describes a system for assisting human reasoning. Natural language application papers treat the lexical analysis of Japanese sentences, a system that generates a summary of a given sentence and a new knowledge representation formalism suited for representing dynamic behavior by extending the frame system.
