Study Notes

Knowledge Representation

  • Knowledge representation and reasoning (KR, KRR) is part of Artificial Intelligence (AI)
  • It focuses on how AI agents think and how their thinking contributes to intelligent behavior
  • KR allows computers to understand and use knowledge to solve complex problems (e.g., medical diagnoses, natural language communication)
  • It describes how knowledge can be represented in AI, not just storing data, but also enabling learning from that knowledge and experience to achieve intelligent behavior like humans

Types of Knowledge

  • Object: Facts about objects in a domain (e.g., guitars have strings)
  • Events: Actions that occur (e.g., actions in a game)
  • Performance: Describes how to do things (e.g., procedures)
  • Meta-knowledge: Knowledge about knowledge (e.g., knowing what you know)
  • Facts: Truths about the real world
  • Knowledge-Base (KB): Main component of knowledge-based AI agents, structured as a set of sentences

Types of Knowledge in AI

  • Declarative knowledge: Knowing what something is (facts, concepts, objects). Expressed in declarative sentences; simpler than procedural knowledge.
  • Procedural knowledge: Knowing how to do something (rules, strategies, procedures). Imperative knowledge, directly applicable to tasks.
  • Meta-knowledge: Knowledge about other types of knowledge
  • Heuristic knowledge: Expert knowledge, often rules of thumb based on experience, potentially not guaranteed to work

Structural Knowledge

  • Basic knowledge for problem-solving
  • Describes relationships between concepts (e.g., "kind of," "part of," grouping)
  • Details the connection between concepts or objects

Knowledge and Intelligence

  • Knowledge of the real world is vital for AI and creating artificial intelligence
  • AI agents can only accurately act on input if they have knowledge about it
  • Knowledge enables intelligent behavior in AI agents

AI Knowledge Cycle

  • AI systems use several components to display intelligent behavior:
    • Perception (acquiring environmental information)
    • Learning (analyzing data from perception)
    • Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (representing knowledge, drawing conclusions)
    • Planning (developing strategies)
    • Execution (carrying out plans)
  • These components interact to enable intelligent behavior

Knowledge Representation Approaches

  • Simple Relational Knowledge: Stores facts in columns (e.g., database format). Limited inference capabilities.
  • Inheritable Knowledge: Represents data in a hierarchy of classes; objects inherit properties from parent classes
  • Inferential Knowledge: Represents knowledge using formal logic (e.g., propositional logic, predicate logic). Allows for derivation of new facts.
  • Procedural Knowledge: Uses programs that describe how to do something. If-Then rules are often used
  • Example of simple relational knowledge: A table with columns for 'Player', 'Weight', and 'Age'.

Requirements for Knowledge Representation Systems

  • Representational Accuracy: System must accurately represent all required knowledge.
  • Inferential Adequacy: System must effectively manipulate existing structures to create new knowledge matching existing structures
  • Inferential Efficiency: System must direct the inferential mechanism to the most productive solutions.
  • Acquistional Efficiency: System must easily acquire new knowledge

Knowledge Representation using Semantic Networks

  • Four main approaches:
    • Logical representation
    • Semantic network representation
    • Frame representation
    • Production rules

Logical Representation

  • Uses a formal language with concrete rules and propositions
  • Avoids ambiguity
  • Allows for clear communication rules
  • Includes a precise syntax and semantics
  • Categorized into:
    • Propositional logic
    • Predicate logic

Semantic Network Representation

  • Alternative to predicate logic for representing knowledge graphically
  • Nodes represent objects, arcs represent relationships between objects
  • Simple to understand and expand
  • Consists of:
    • Is-A Relation (Inheritance)
    • Kind-of Relation

Frame Representation

  • Record-like structure with attributes and values
  • Organizes knowledge into slots, facets
  • Divided into subsets
  • Uses slots and slot values for specifying features
  • Example: A frame for a "Book" object might include slots like "Title," "Author," and "Pages."

Production Rules

  • Consists of (condition, action) pairs ("If condition then action")
  • Three parts include:
    • Set of production rules
    • Working Memory
    • Recognize-Act Cycle
  • Example IF (at bus stop AND bus arrives) THEN action (get into the bus)

Disadvantages of Production Rules

  • Doesn't have learning capabilities
  • Potential for many active rules during execution, leading to inefficiency
