Deductive ja inductivelearning

Deductive learning: Rules are given, which are correct in general case. Derivation of the situation or behavior, what is right for the individual case.

If … Then …If … Then …Kui … Siis ...Kui … Siis ...

If the shop is located in the old downIf the shop is located in the old down Then you have problems with transportThen you have problems with transport

Inductive learning: A set of examples are givenabout typical situations or decisions. The general rule is found using these examples.

Rules depends *from the algorithm of of the inference engine

*from the amount of examples

If the algorithm is “effective” and the number ofexamples is “informative”, then the result isa “good” rule.


Expert System Shell Xpert

To build an expert system means to create an expertknowledge base i.e. to specify a number of examplesabout how the expert system will behave in solving problems of the given domain. If a problem can bedescribed by means of the attributes A,B,C,…,RESULT, then the examples have the following meaning:

IF A=a1 AND B=b1 AND C=c1 AND … THEN RESULT=r1IF A=a2 AND B=b2 AND C=c2 AND … THEN TULEMUS=r2etc.

Example:If the road is dry and the visibility is more than 100 m,the advisable speed is not more than 90 km/h;If the road is dry and the visibility is less than 100 m,then-not more than 80 km/h;If the road is wet and the visibility is more than 100 m,then-not more than 90 km/h;If the road is wet and the visibility is less than 100 m,then-not more than 70 km/h;If the road is sleety, then-not more than 50 km/h.


Basic concepts

Attribute - a factor or feature of the problem under consideration. It has a name, values and it can also have a related text. An attribute can also express a solution of a problem, e.g. "Accept the candidate for the job". In this case the attribute is called a result attribute.

Example – a condition with a certain conclusion. The conclusion can be a decision, a diagnosis, a piece of advice, etc. Each example describesa particular situation. If in a certain situation there are some factors with no influence to the conclusion, then the appropriate example has special don't care values (“-") corresponding to these attributes.

Expert knowledge base – For describing a problem, usually a set of examples is needed. This set of examples is called expert knowledge base.

There exists 4 types of attributes:- choice attribute- RESULT attribute- message attribute- comparison attribute

Algoritm ID3 (Iterative Dichotomizer 3)Ross Quinlan 1979

Let we have a set of examples and a set of attributes.

The informative value of the set of the examples (about result attribute) is:

Io=-Σ pilog2pi , where pi is proportion of theresult of I class.

We can find the informative value of the attributeI1= Σ qnin , where qn is proportion of the

examples with value n.

Algorithm selects an attribute whose valueis the maximum of the following subtraction:

Io-I1


Example: knowledge base with 8 examples

I0=-3/8log23/8-5/8log25/8=0.954I(heigth=tall)= -2/5log22/5-3/5log23/5=0.971I(heigth=short)= -1/3log21/3-2/3log22/3=0.918

Iheigth=5/8*0.971+3/8*0.918=0.951

I0-Iheigth =0.954-0.951= 0.003

Ihair=3/8*0+1/8*0+4/8*1=0.5

I0-Ihair =0.954-0.5= 0.454

I0-Ieyes=0.954-0.607= 0.347
