king@rd1632.Dayton.NCR.COM (James King) (02/11/89)

First a "thank you" to all (over 50) of the respondents to my
initial call for information/participation on the area of
measuring similarity, describing similarity, etc.  I have
just about completed a questionnaire which will be going to
all of the respondents, and another 150 researchers in the
fields of CBR, EBL, Machine Learning, Psychology, Information
Retrieval, Behavior ... etc.  

In the questionnaire I lay out my objectives, background, and
approach.  Also, the survey results will be written up as a
report to DARPA, so it is very important that I understand and
represent accurately the systems, approaches, domains etc. where
similarity issues are of importance.

Thank you.
