Similarity Assessment for Relational CBR

چکیده
Abstract. Reasoning and learning from cases are based on the concept of similarity often estimated by a distance. This paper presents LAUD, a distance measure that can be used to estimate similarity among relational cases. This measure is adequate for domains where cases are best represented by relations among entities. An experimental evaluation of the accuracy of LAUD is presented for the task of classifying marine sponges.

متن کاملA Relational Case-Based Reasoning Framework for Project Delivery System Selection
An appropriate project delivery system (PDS) is crucial to the success of a construction projects. Case-based Reasoning (CBR) is a useful support for PDS selection. However, the traditional CBR approach represents cases as attribute-value vectors without taking relations among attributes into consideration, and could not calculate the similarity when the structures of cases are not strictly sam...
متن کاملCombining Strict Matching and Similarity Assessment for Retrieving Appropriate Cases Efficiently
It is essential for case-based reasoning (CBR) systems to access trnly relevant cases efficiently. Similarity assessment adopted by many CBR systems needs performance improvement, especially if the case library of a CBR system consists of a database in the target domain which is not equipped with suitable indexing for the CBR system. In consideration of this problem, we are exploring use of str...
متن کاملSimilarity-Based Retrieval on Top of Relational Databases
This paper presents an approach to realize a case retrieval engine on top of a relational database. In a nutshell the core idea is to approximate a similarity-based retrieval with SQL-queries. The approach avoids duplicating the case data or compiling index structures and is therefore ideal for huge cases bases which are often subject to changes. The presented approach is fully implemented as p...

be a problem when applying CBR to weak-theoretic domains.1 The knowledge elicitation bottleneck—the inability to precisely encode the knowledge used by human experts—is a concern in many knowledge-based applications. Although researchers cite this bottleneck as a justification for CBR techniques,2 use of domain knowledge in indexing means that CBR techniques are not immune to it. We’ve develope...
