Learning in FOL with a Similarity Measure
نویسنده
چکیده
There are still very few systems performing a Similarity Based Learning and using a First Order Logic (FOL) representation. This limitation comes from the intrinsic complexity of the learning processes in FOL and from the difficulty to deal with numerical knowledge in this representation. In this paper, we show that major learning processes, namely generalization and clustering, can be solved in a homogeneous way by using a similarity measure. As this measure is defined, the similarity computation comes down to a problem of solving a set of equations in several unknowns. The representation language used to express our examples is a subset of FOL allowing to express both quantitative knowledge and a relevance scale on the predicates.

متن کاملA New Similarity Measure Based on Item Proximity and Closeness for Collaborative Filtering Recommendation
Recommender systems utilize information retrieval and machine learning techniques for filtering information and can predict whether a user would like an unseen item. User similarity measurement plays an important role in collaborative filtering based recommender systems. In order to improve accuracy of traditional user based collaborative filtering techniques under new user cold-start problem a...
متن کاملAn improved similarity measure of generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers and its application in multi-attribute group decision making
Generalized trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (GTFNs) have been widely applied in uncertain decision-making problems. The similarity between GTFNs plays an important part in solving such problems, while there are some limitations in existing similarity measure methods. Thus, based on the cosine similarity, a novel similarity measure of GTFNs is developed which is combined with the concepts of geometric...
متن کاملCombining a Logical and a Numerical Method for Data Reconciliation
The reference reconciliation problem consists in deciding whether different identifiers refer to the same data, i.e. correspond to the same real world entity. In this article we present a reference reconciliation approach which combines a logical method for reference reconciliation called L2R and a numerical one called N2R. This approach exploits the schema and data semantics, which is translat...
متن کاملA New Similarity Measure for Guiding Generalizations Search
Few works are available in the literature to define similarity criteria between First-Order Logic (FOL) formulæ, where the presence of relations causes various portions of one description to be possibly mapped in different ways onto another description, which poses serious computational problems. Hence, the need for a set of general criteria that are able to support the comparison between formu...
