چکیده

Learning general truths from the observation of simple domains and, further, learning how to use this knowledge are essential capabilities for any intelligent agent to understand and execute informed actions in the real world. The aim of this work is the investigation of the automatic learning of mathematical structures from visual observation. This research was conducted upon a system that combines computer vision with inductive logic programming that was first designed to learn protocol behaviour from observation. In this paper we show how transitivity, reflexivity and symmetry axioms could be induced from the noisy data provided by the vision system. Noise in the data accounts for the generation of a large number of possible generalisations by the ILP system, most of which do not represent interesting concepts about the observed domain. In order to automatically choose the best answers among those generated by induction, we propose a method for combining the results of multiple ILP processes by ranking the most interesting answers.

We study the history and recent developments in nonelementarymodel theory focusing on the framework of abstractelementary classes. We discuss the role of syntax and semanticsand the motivation to generalize first order model theory to nonelementaryframeworks and illuminate the study with concrete examplesof classes of models.

بازیابی تعاملی تصاویر طبیعت با بهره گیری از یادگیری چند نمونه ای

Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) has received considerable research interest in the recent years. The basic problem in CBIR is the semantic gap between the high-level image semantics and the low-level image features. Region-based image retrieval and learning from user interaction through relevance feedback are two main approaches to solving this problem. Recently, the research in integra...

Improved Representation Learning for Question Answer Matching

Passage-level question answer matching is a challenging task since it requires effective representations that capture the complex semantic relations between questions and answers. In this work, we propose a series of deep learning models to address passage answer selection. To match passage answers to questions accommodating their complex semantic relations, unlike most previous work that utili...

Different Structures for Evaluating Answers to Complex Questions: Pyramids Won't Topple, and Neither Will Human Assessors

The idea of “nugget pyramids” has recently been introduced as a refinement to the nugget-based methodology used to evaluate answers to complex questions in the TREC QA tracks. This paper examines data from the 2006 evaluation, the first large-scale deployment of the nugget pyramids scheme. We show that this method of combining judgments of nugget importance from multiple assessors increases the...
