Default Clustering with Conceptual Structures
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a theoretical framework for inducing knowledge from incomplete data sets. The general framework can be used with any formalism based on a lattice structure. It is illustrated within two formalisms: the attribute-value formalism and Sowa’s conceptual graphs. The induction engine is based on a non-supervised algorithm called default clustering which uses the concept of stereotype and the new notion of default subsumption, inspired by the default logic theory. A validation using artificial data sets and an application concerning the extraction of stereotypes from newspaper articles are given at the end of the paper.

Modeling Default Induction with Conceptual Structures
Our goal is to model the way people induce knowledge from rare and sparse data. This paper describes a theoretical framework for inducing knowledge from these incomplete data described with conceptual graphs. The induction engine is based on a non-supervised algorithm named default clustering which uses the concept of stereotype and the new notion of default subsumption, the latter being inspir...
متن کاملNoise-Tolerant Conceptual Clustering
Fisher (1987a,b) introduced a performance task for conceptual clustering: flexible prediction of arbitrary attribute values, not simply the prediction of a single 'class' attribute. This paper extends earlier analysis by considering the effects of noise and other environmental factors. The degradation in flexible prediction accuracy that results from noise is mitigated by 'preferred' prediction...
متن کاملClustering of Conceptual Graphs with Sparse Data
This paper gives a theoretical framework for clustering a set of conceptual graphs characterized by sparse descriptions. The formed clusters are named in an intelligible manner through the concept of stereotype, based on the notion of default generalization. The cognitive model we propose relies on sets of stereotypes and makes it possible to save data in a structured memory.
متن کاملMatrix Sequential Hybrid Credit Scorecard Based on Logistic Regression and Clustering
The Basel II Accord pointed out benefits of credit risk management through internal models to estimate Probability of Default (PD). Banks use default predictions to estimate the loan applicants’ PD. However, in practice, PD is not useful and banks applied credit scorecards for their decision making process. Also the competitive pressures in lending industry forced banks to use profit scorecards...
متن کاملOn Correlation and Default Clustering in Credit Markets
We establish Markovian models in the Heath, Jarrow and Morton paradigm that permit an exponential affine representation of riskless and risky bond prices while offering significant flexibility in the choice of volatility structures. Estimating models in our family is typically no more difficult than estimating term structure models in the workhorse affine family. In addition to diffusive and ju...
