Natural Language Instruction for Analogical Reasoning: An Initial Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
A challenge for any case-based reasoning system is how to acquire the cases with which to reason. Here we explore acquiring cases via natural language instruction by a person. We show how, using microstories (1-3 sentence stories) expressed in simplified English syntax, small cases – called common sense units – can be incrementally added to improve analogical reasoning performance.

Analogical Instruction
analogical transfer, the present study systematically compared the effect of ing that animated source instruction facilitated spontaneous analogical inference. Analogical reasoning is a cognitive underpinning of the ability to notice and draw providing practical suggestions for classroom instruction. We first discuss. Learning, instruction, problem solving, transfer, analogical reasoning, instr...

متن کاملJoint Learning of Entity and Type Embeddings for Analogical Reasoning with Entities
Two situations can be considered analogous if they share a common pattern. Analogical reasoning is the task of finding analogies and inferencing missing terms in them. Since natural language is ambiguous, as the same word can refer to different entities, the use of disambiguated entities from Knowledge Graphs for analogical reasoning might bring to better results. Also, entities have types, i.e...

Natural language understanding is an important problem in artificial intelligence, and a challenging one. Analogy is a powerful tool that has been applied to a number of important AI tasks. This thesis describes three contributions that integrate language understanding and analogical reasoning. The first contribution is to demonstrate that analogical retrieval of previously stored sentence choi...
متن کاملReducing Noise Sensitivity of Formal Analogical Reasoning Applied to Language Transfers
Abstract. Previous applications of formal analogical reasoning to the task of natural to formal language transfer have shown a very high precision. However, this also came with a low recall. Analogical reasoning methods are very sensitive to noise in the input data. In order to improve the response rate, we propose to release the constraints. Firstly, we present a relaxation of the search in th...
