Ontologies for Learning Agents : Problems , Solutions and Directions

چکیده
We are developing a general end-to-end approach, called Disciple, for building and using personal problem solving and learning agents. This approach raises complex challenges related to ontology specification, import, elici-tation, learning, and merging, that we have explored to various degrees, as we are developing successive versions of Disciple. This paper presents some of these challenges, our current solutions and the future directions, that are relevant for building agents in general.

Toward Tomorrow’s Semantic Web—An Approach Based on Information Extraction Ontologies
This position paper proffers the use of information-extraction ontologies as an approach to semantic understanding for the semantic web. From this perspective, it also issues challenges to the machine learning community to offer solutions for specific problems to aid in semantic understanding.

In this paper we survey some current approaches in the area of technologies for electronic documents that are used for finding, reusing and adapting documents for teaching or learning purposes. We describe how research in structured documents, document representation and retrieval, semantic representation of document content and relationships, and ontologies could be used to provide solutions t...
متن کاملMulti-objective Differential Evolution for the Flow shop Scheduling Problem with a Modified Learning Effect
This paper proposes an effective multi-objective differential evolution algorithm (MDES) to solve a permutation flow shop scheduling problem (PFSSP) with modified Dejong's learning effect. The proposed algorithm combines the basic differential evolution (DE) with local search and borrows the selection operator from NSGA-II to improve the general performance. First the problem is encoded with a...
متن کاملProblems Associated with the Use of Communicative Language Teaching in EFL Contexts and Possible Solutions
If the target of foreign language teaching is to use the language, communicative language teaching (CLT) seems to be an ideal teaching model. The goal of teaching with this method is to use the language as a medium of communication (Adi, 2012).The application of the communicative approach in teaching English as a foreign language, however, is associated with some problems that can cause the met...
متن کاملEngineering Trust Alignment: a First Approach
In open multi-agent systems trust models are an important tool for agents to achieve effective interactions. However, in these kinds of open systems, the agents do not necessarily use the same, or even similar, trust models, leading to semantic differences between trust evaluations in the different agents. Hence, to successfully use communicated trust evaluations, the agents need to align their...
