Knowledge Engineering - Building Cognitive Assistants for Evidence-based Reasoning (Hardcover): Gheorghe Tecuci, Dorin Marcu,... Knowledge Engineering - Building Cognitive Assistants for Evidence-based Reasoning (Hardcover)
Gheorghe Tecuci, Dorin Marcu, Mihai Boicu, David A. Schum
R2,052 Discovery Miles 20 520 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book presents a significant advancement in the theory and practice of knowledge engineering, the discipline concerned with the development of intelligent agents that use knowledge and reasoning to perform problem solving and decision-making tasks. It covers the main stages in the development of a knowledge-based agent: understanding the application domain, modeling problem solving in that domain, developing the ontology, learning the reasoning rules, and testing the agent. The book focuses on a special class of agents: cognitive assistants for evidence-based reasoning that learn complex problem-solving expertise directly from human experts, support experts, and nonexperts in problem solving and decision making, and teach their problem-solving expertise to students. A powerful learning agent shell, Disciple-EBR, is included with the book, enabling students, practitioners, and researchers to develop cognitive assistants rapidly in a wide variety of domains that require evidence-based reasoning, including intelligence analysis, cybersecurity, law, forensics, medicine, and education.

Intelligence Analysis as Discovery of Evidence, Hypotheses, and Arguments - Connecting the Dots (Hardcover): Gheorghe Tecuci,... Intelligence Analysis as Discovery of Evidence, Hypotheses, and Arguments - Connecting the Dots (Hardcover)
Gheorghe Tecuci, David A. Schum, Dorin Marcu, Mihai Boicu
R1,594 Discovery Miles 15 940 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This unique book on intelligence analysis covers several vital but often overlooked topics. It teaches the evidential and inferential issues involved in 'connecting the dots' to draw defensible and persuasive conclusions from masses of evidence: from observations we make, or questions we ask, we generate alternative hypotheses as explanations or answers; we make use of our hypotheses to generate new lines of inquiry and discover new evidence; and we test the hypotheses with the discovered evidence. To facilitate understanding of these issues and enable the performance of complex analyses, the book introduces an intelligent analytical tool, called Disciple-CD. Readers will practice with Disciple-CD and learn how to formulate hypotheses; develop arguments that reduce complex hypotheses to simpler ones; collect evidence to evaluate the simplest hypotheses; and assess the relevance and the believability of evidence, which combine in complex ways to determine its inferential force and the probabilities of the hypotheses.

Building Intelligent Agents - An Apprenticeship, Multistrategy Learning Theory, Methodology, Tool and Case Studies (Paperback):... Building Intelligent Agents - An Apprenticeship, Multistrategy Learning Theory, Methodology, Tool and Case Studies (Paperback)

Building Intelligent Agents is unique in its comprehensive coverage of the subject. The first part of the book presents an original theory for building intelligent agents and a methodology and tool that implement the theory. The second part of the book presents complex and detailed case studies of building different types of agents: an educational assessment agent, a statistical analysis assessment and support agent, an engineering design assistant, and a virtual military commander. Also featured in this book is "Disciple," a toolkit for building interactive agents which function in much the same way as a human apprentice. Disciple-based agents can reason both with incomplete information, but also with information that is potentially incorrect. This approach, in which the agent learns its behavior from its teacher, integrates many machine learning and knowledge acquisition techniques, taking advantage of their complementary strengths to compensate for each others weakness. As a consequence, it significantly reduces (or even eliminates) the involvement of a knowledge engineer in the process of building an intelligent agent.
