This functional vocabulary appears to help organize their knowledge for several pur poses. In diagnosis, symptoms might be computed by comparing current be havior against the standard behavior stored with the functional description. In design, a functional vocabulary provides an intermediate goal that constrains the search space. The designer might decide what combination of functional blocks would achieve her purpose, and then figure out how to implement this functionality with the available components.
Building such a massive knowledge base will be impossible on an ad hoc basis. Ontology provides one source of organizing principles, but there are no doubt others. Hierarchy plays an important role in organizing many other AI knowledge bases, and it is likely to do so in qualitative physics as well. Making qualitative simulations work with multiple levels of detail is an important problem (see [Weld, 1986; Kuipers, 1987] for some initial forays). At least two other organizational ideas appear necessary as well.
1986, 1988]) and psy chological experiments. The other approach, the Automated Physicist project, is being carried out in collaboration with Jerry DeJong. The idea is to build a series of machine learning systems that learn by experimentation and observation and by solving textbook problems. The dream behind the AP project is to build a sort of "Sherlock Holmes" of physics—it it begins by sitting back in its armchair and trying to explain reported behavior in the physical world. If it can explain a re- Overview and Motivation flow, for instance, the domain compiler produces an inference rule describing what it takes to cause a liquid flow to happen.
