Maybe we can try, first of all, a wiki page for summarizing the near-term examples for which we'd like to see pattern mining work... E.g. on my radar for this year we have (in no particular order) -- Mining of inference histories, for inference control -- Mining of dialogue histories, for learning dialogue patterns (or more generally, verbal/nonverbal interaction patterns) -- Mining of sets of genomic datasets or medical patient records, to find surprisingly common combinations of features -- Mining of surprising combinations of visual features in the output of a relatively "disentangled" deep NN (such as the pyramid-of-InfoGANs that Ralf, Selameab, Tesfa, Yenat and I are working on) -- Mining of surprising combinations of semantic relationships, in the R2L output of a large number of simple sentences read into Atomspace -- Mining of surprising combinations of syntactic relationships, in an Atomspace containing a set of syntactic relationships corresponding to each word in the dictionary of a given language (to be done iteratively within the language learning algorithm Linas is implementing) -- Mining of surprising (link-parser link combination, Lojban-Atomese-output combination) pairs, in a corpus of (link parses, Lojban-Atomese outputs) obtained from a parallel (English, Lojban) corpus > Personally, I do would like to see an API that facilitates interaction with > the URE. I don't really have concrete examples, just an idea. Hmmm... Well one could say there is a rule FindSignificantPatterns whose input is -- a template T restricting what kinds of patterns to look for -- a GroundedSchemaNode containing the significance measure one wants to use and whose output is, say, a SetLink containing the most significant patterns found This is a pretty computationally expensive inference rule though ;) But maybe you're thinking of something else... -- Ben -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "opencog" group.
