Invented Predicates to Reduce Knowledge Acquisition Effort
نویسنده
چکیده
The aim of this study was to develop machine learning techniques that would speed up knowledge acquisition from an expert. As the expert provided knowledge the system would generalize from this knowledge in order to reduce the need for later knowledge acquisition. This generalization should be completely hidden from the expert. We have developed such a learning technique based on Duce’s intra construction operator and absorption operators (Muggleton, 1990) and applied to Ripple Down Rules (RDR) incremental knowledge acquisition (Compton & Jansen, 1990). Preliminary evaluation shows that knowledge acquisition can be reduced by up to 50%.

Invented Predicates to Reduce Knowledge Acquisition
The aim of this study was to develop machine learning techniques that would facilitate knowledge acquisition from an expert by taking over the knowledge engineering task of identifying intermediate abstractions. As the expert provided knowledge the system would generalize from this knowledge and use the abstractions it learned in order to reduce the need for later knowledge acquisition. This ge...

متن کاملThe Interlanguage of Persian Learners of Italian: a Focus on Complex Predicates
This paper aims at investigating the acquisition of Italian complex predicates by native speakers of Persian. Complex predication is not as pervasive a phenomenon in Italian as it is in Persian. Yet Italian native speakers use complex predicates productively; spontaneous data show that Persian learners of Italian seem to be perfectly aware of Italian complex predicates and use this familiar fea...
متن کاملAcquisition of English Unergative and Unaccusative Structures by Persian EFL Learners
The acquisition of argument structures has been studied by a variety of second language acquisition scholars within the past two decades (Atay, 2010; Can, 2009; Chay, 2006, & Kras, 2007, among others). In the present study, ‘Predicate’ as the most substantial element of a sentence is investigated. There are three English verb-types which seem to be more problematic for Persian EFL learners: (a)...
متن کاملEfficient Knowledge Acquisition for Extracting Temporal Relations
We present KAFTIE – an incremental knowledge acquisition framework which utilizes expert knowledge to build high quality knowledge base annotators. Using KAFTIE, a knowledge base was built based on a small data set that outperforms machine learning algorithms trained on a much bigger data set for the task of recognizing temporal relations. In particular, this can be incorporated to bootstrap th...
