Stereotype Extraction with Default Clustering
نویسندگان
چکیده
The concept of stereotype seems to be really adapted when wishing to extract meaningful descriptions from data, especially when there is a high rate of missing values. This paper proposes a logical framework called default clustering based on default reasoning and local search techniques. The first experiment deals with the rediscovering of initial descriptions from artificial data sets, the second one extracts stereotypes of politicians in a real case generated from newspaper articles. It is shown that default clustering is more adapted in this context than the three classical clusterers considered.

Default Clustering with Conceptual Structures
This paper describes a theoretical framework for inducing knowledge from incomplete data sets. The general framework can be used with any formalism based on a lattice structure. It is illustrated within two formalisms: the attribute-value formalism and Sowa’s conceptual graphs. The induction engine is based on a non-supervised algorithm called default clustering which uses the concept of stereo...
متن کاملClustering of Conceptual Graphs with Sparse Data
This paper gives a theoretical framework for clustering a set of conceptual graphs characterized by sparse descriptions. The formed clusters are named in an intelligible manner through the concept of stereotype, based on the notion of default generalization. The cognitive model we propose relies on sets of stereotypes and makes it possible to save data in a structured memory.
متن کاملModeling Default Induction with Conceptual Structures
Our goal is to model the way people induce knowledge from rare and sparse data. This paper describes a theoretical framework for inducing knowledge from these incomplete data described with conceptual graphs. The induction engine is based on a non-supervised algorithm named default clustering which uses the concept of stereotype and the new notion of default subsumption, the latter being inspir...
متن کاملThe role of prevention focus under stereotype threat: Initial cognitive mobilization is followed by depletion.
Previous research has demonstrated that stereotype threat induces a prevention focus and impairs central executive functions. The present research examines how these 2 consequences of stereotype threat are related. The authors argue that the prevention focus is responsible for the effects of stereotype threat on executive functions and cognitive performance. However, because the prevention focu...
متن کاملSpontaneous default mode network phase-locking moderates performance perceptions under stereotype threat.
This study assessed whether individual differences in self-oriented neural processing were associated with performance perceptions of minority students under stereotype threat. Resting electroencephalographic activity recorded in white and minority participants was used to predict later estimates of task errors and self-doubt on a presumed measure of intelligence. We assessed spontaneous phase-...
