Abstract:
Knowledge Acquisition has long been acknowledged as the bottleneck in producing Expert Systems. This is because, until relatively recently, the KA (Knowledge Acquisition) process has concentrated on extracting knowledge from a domain expert, which is a very time consuming process. Support tools have been constructed to help this process, but these have not been able to reduce the time radically. However, in many domains, the expert is not the only source of knowledge, nor indeed the best source of knowledge. This is particularly true in industrial settings where performance information is rout

Abstract:
Knowledge Based Systems (KBS) have been actively investigated since the early period of AI. There are four common methods of building expert systems: modeling approaches, programming approaches, case-based approaches and machine-learning approaches. One particular technique is Ripple Down Rules (RDR) which may be classified as an incremental case-based approach. Knowledge needs to be acquired from experts in the context of individual cases viewed by them. In the RDR framework, the expert adds a new rule based on the context of an individual case. This task is simple and only affects the expert

Abstract:
Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) is an appealing technique for developing intelligent systems. Besides its psycho- logical plausibility and a substantial body of research during recent years, building a good CBR system remains still a difficult task. The main problems remaining are the development of suitable case retrieval and adaptation mechanisms for CBR. The major issues are how and when to capture the necessary knowledge for both of the above aspects. As a contribution to knowledge this thesis proposes a new approach to address the experienced difficulties. The basic framework of Ripple Down Ru

A recent project at the University of South Florida has been aimed at the automation of this task.

Abstract:
Linguistic patterns have been used widely in shallow methods to develop numerous NLP applications. Approaches for acquiring linguistic patterns can be broadly categorised into three groups: supervised learning, unsupervised learning and manual methods. In supervised learning approaches, a large annotated training corpus is required for the learning algorithms to achieve decent results. However, annotated corpora are expensive to obtain and usually available only for established tasks. Unsupervised learning approaches usually start with a few seed examples and gather some statistics based on a

Computer-based training systems have become a mainstay in military and private institutions for training people how to perform certain complex tasks. As these tasks expand in difficulty, intelligent agents will appear as virtual teammates or tutors assisting a trainee in performing and learning the task. For developing these agents, we must obtain the strategies from expert players and emulate their behavior within the agent. Past researchers have shown the challenges in acquiring this information from expert human players and translating it into the agent. A solution for this problem involves
