Knowledge forest: a novel model to organize knowledge fragments

Exploiting temporal knowledge to organize constraints

This paper examines the role of temporal knowledge in regard to the representation and utilization of constraints within time dependent problem domains. We first consider the representation of constraints whose, interpretations may vary in different temporal regions of the solution space. A representation that organizes constraint variants via the temporal relationships among them is presented ...

Can Tagging Organize Human Knowledge?

The fundamental premise of tagging systems is that regular users can successfully organize large collections for browsing and other tasks through the use of uncontrolled vocabularies. Until now, that premise has remained relatively unexamined. In this work, using library data as a guide, we look at whether tags do a good job of organizing large sets of objects. We find that tags are predominant...

KIDS: An Iterative Algorithm to Organize Relational Knowledge

The goal of conceptual clustering is to build a set of embedded classes, which cluster objects based on their similarities. Knowledge organization aims at generating the set of most specific classes: the Generalization Space. It has applications in the field of data mining, knowledge indexation or knowledge acquisition. Efficient algorithms have been proposed for data described in <attribute, v...
