OBSERVATION Blinded by Irrelevance: Pure Irrelevance Induced “Blindness”
To what degree does our representation of the immediate world depend solely on its relevance to what we are currently doing? We examined whether relevance per se can cause “blindness,” even when there is no resource limitation. In a novel paradigm, people looked at a colored circle surrounded by a differently colored ring—the task relevance of which was previously manipulated—and were subsequen...
متن کاملAlgorithms for Irrelevance-Based Partial MAPs
Irrelevance-based partial MAPs are useful constructs for domain-independent explana tion using belief networks. We look at two definitions for such partial MAPs, and prove important properties that are useful in de signing algorithms for computing them effec tively. We make use of these properties in modifying our standard MAP best-first algo rithm, so as to handle irrelevance-based par ti...
متن کاملThe Relevance of Irrelevance
This research describes the formalization of statements of the form fact f is irrelevant to fact g given theory M. We motivate the need for representing and reasoning wi th such statements in problem-solving systems, and outline the semantics and properties of statements about irrelevance. We then describe a logic irrelevance that serves as a language for specifying irrelevance claims in the wo...
متن کاملThe Irrelevance Of Relevance
The lack of a theory of relevance in the current state of the art of informal logic has often been considered regrettable, a gap that must be filled before the RelevanceSufficiency-Acceptability model can be considered complete. I wish to challenge this view. A theory of relevance is neither desirable nor possible. Informal logic has got by perfectly well with relevance judgments that are unana...
متن کاملIrrelevance Reasoning in Knowledge
Speeding up inferences made from large knowledge bases is a key to scaling up knowledge based systems. To do so, a system must have the ability to automatically identify and ignore information that is irrelevant to a speci c task. Identifying irrelevant knowledge is also key to enabling reasoning in environments in which several systems (and their respective knowledge bases) interoperate. This ...
