Study Notes
Semantic Networks
- Nodes in a semantic network represent concepts or objects.
- Arcs in a semantic network represent relationships between concepts or objects.
Classes in Semantic Networks
- Super classes are general categories that sub classes inherit from.
- Sub classes are specific categories that inherit properties from super classes.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Semantic Networks
- One disadvantage of semantic networks is NOT their ability to represent complex relationships.
- Semantic networks are a type of graph data structure.
- A major disadvantage of conventional semantic networks is their inability to represent uncertain or fuzzy information.
Frames in Knowledge Representation
- Frames involve stereotyped information on objects and their attributes.
- A key advantage of frames is their ability to represent complex, structured knowledge.
- The implementation of frames is challenging, especially concerning inheritance, due to the complexity of attribute relationships.
- Frames can present close matches despite missing values through default values.
Classification Techniques
- The two broad classes of classification techniques mentioned in the text are symbolic and connectionist.
- The distance measure NOT mentioned in the text for k-nearest neighbor classification is Jaccard similarity.
Common Disadvantages of Semantic Networks
- A common disadvantage of semantic networks according to the text is their inability to represent uncertain or fuzzy information.
Fuzzy Sets and Classification
- Fuzzy sets are used in classification techniques that rely on symbolic processing.
Blind Search in Knowledge-Based Systems
- Blind search involves searching through all possible solutions without using any heuristic knowledge.
Logical Features in Semantic Networks
- Semantic networks cannot express negation as per the text.
Explore the concept of semantic networks in a knowledge-based system, which represent knowledge through interconnected nodes and arcs. Learn how nodes represent concepts or entities, while arcs represent relationships between these concepts.
