Study Notes
Course Organization
- The course is 4K
- Lectures are 3 hours per week spread over weeks 5, 7, 9, and 11
- There are 2-hour colloquia during week 13
- Lab work sessions are 2 hours each for weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14
- Course evaluation is via a colloquium in week 13
- Contact information for the lecturer is provided
Evaluation
- The final grade (FG) is calculated as 30% of the laboratory grade (LG) plus 70% of the colloquium grade (CG)
- Laboratory grade (LG) is calculated as 50% activity grade (AG) plus 50% homework presentation grade (HWPG)
- Colloquium grade (CG) is calculated as 40% homework grade (HWG) plus 60% written essay grade (WEG)
1. Introduction to Knowledge Representation
- Knowledge representation is about representing information
- It also involves reasoning with information
Key Goals of Knowledge Representation
- Expressiveness
- Efficiency
- Inferential Adequacy
- Inferential Efficiency
- Understandability
Knowledge Types in KRR
- Declarative knowledge
- Procedural knowledge
- Meta-knowledge
Knowledge Representation Schemes
- Logic-based representations
- Semantic networks
- Frames
- Ontologies
- Rule-based systems
2. The Role of Knowledge Representation in AI
- Enabling machine understanding
- Deductive reasoning
- Abducitve reasoning
- Supporting reasoning and inference
- Facilitating communication
- Learning and adaptation
- Supporting AI reasoning in uncertainty
- Planning and problem-solving
- Interpreting complex data
- Natural language understanding
3. Knowledge Representation Techniques
- Logic-based representation
- Propositional Logic
- Predicate Logic
- Semantic Networks
- Frames
- Ontologies
- Rule-Based Systems
3.1.1. Propositional Logic
- Example using MATLAB to evaluate propositional logic
- Scenarios to establish logical relationship: 'P' is 'It is raining' and 'Q' is 'The ground is wet'
- Implemented in MATLAB to evaluate truth values
3.1.2. Predicate Logic
- Scenario representing knowledge about people and relationships
- Predicates include "Person(x)", "Likes(x, y)", and "Parent(x, y)"
- Facts include information about Alice, Bob, and Charlie relationships
- Defined facts using structures in MATLAB
3.2. Semantic Networks
- Scenario representing relationships between different animals
- Nodes (concepts include: Dog, Cat, Animal, Mammal, Bird)
- Edges (relationships include: Dog is a Mammal, Cat is a Mammal, Mammal is a Animal etc)
- Demonstrated using a directed graph
3.3. Frames
- Scenario representing a simple car
- Attributes defined: Type, Color, Owner, Engine (Type, Horsepower)
- Shows how frames can be represented in MATLAB using structures
3.4. Ontologies
- Scenario for a transportation domain
- Classes defined: Vehicle, Car, Sedan, SUV, Bicycle, Person, Driver, Passenger)
- Properties defined: hasType, hasOwner, canDrive
3.5. Rule-Based Systems
- Rule-based system for simple medical diagnosis
- Rules defined for diagnosing patients with the flu
- System to evaluate patient symptoms based on rules.
4. Reasoning with Knowledge
- Types of reasoning include: Deductive, Inductive, Abducative
4.1. Deductive Reasoning
- Deriving specific conclusions from general principles, classical if-then logical method
- Example shown using MATLAB to determine whether a bird can fly or not
4.2. Inductive Reasoning
- Generalizing from specific examples and observations which produce probabilistic rather than certain (definitive) conclusions
- Example about swans' color
4.3. Abducative Reasoning
- Inferring best explanations for observations
- Finding the most probable causes for observations
5. Applications of Knowledge Representation
- Natural Language Processing (NLP)
- Expert Systems
- Robotics
- Recommendation Systems
6. Conclusions
- Connection between knowledge representation and AI components.
- Expert Systems
- Search Algorithms
- Machine Learning
- Challenges in Knowledge Representation
- Complexity and Scalability
- Ambiguity and Vagueness
- Updating Knowledge
- Expressiveness vs. Efficiency
