Complex tasks with a visually rich component, like diagnosing seizures based on patient video cases, not only require the acquisition of conceptual but also of perceptual skills.

One important aspect of clinical knowledge that medical edu...

The knowledge given by an expert in order to construct a Knowledge Based System is often not very precise and contains uncertainty. In many cases, the expert prefers to express the uncertainty in a qualitative form rather than in a quantitative one . In this paper, we present a model of the uncertainty (and/or the lack of precision) in qualitative form. A symbolic approach in a context of a man...

In this paper, we propose a new approach for retrieval of video segments using natural language queries. Unlike most previous approaches such as concept-based methods or rule-based structured models, the proposed method uses image captioning model to construct sentential queries for visual information. In detail, our approach exploits multiple captions generated by visual features in each image...

In complex domains it is usually quite difficult to introduce context information. However, sometimes that information should be taken into account to take decisions, because it provides some relevant knowledge that cannot be expressed using an attribute-value representation. In this paper, we propose to use conjunctive rules to model some of the knowledge of the experts and use those rules in ...
