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
