The Actias system: supervised multi-strategy learning paradigm using categorical logic (1607.08098v1)

Abstract: One of the most difficult problems in the development of intelligent systems is the construction of the underlying knowledge base. As a consequence, the rate of progress in the development of this type of system is directly related to the speed with which knowledge bases can be assembled, and on its quality. We attempt to solve the knowledge acquisition problem, for a Business Information System, developing a supervised multistrategy learning paradigm. This paradigm is centred on a collaborative data mining strategy, where groups of experts collaborate using data-mining process on the supervised acquisition of new knowledge extracted from heterogeneous machine learning data models. The Actias system is our approach to this paradigm. It is the result of applying the graphic logic based language of sketches to knowledge integration. The system is a data mining collaborative workplace, where the Information System knowledge base is an algebraic structure. It results from the integration of background knowledge with new insights extracted from data models, generated for specific data modelling tasks, and represented as rules using the sketches language.
