  • In this research, we propose an automatic knowledge acquisition and composite knowledge expression mechanism based on machine learning and relational database. Most of traditional approaches to develop a knowledge base and inference engine of expert systems were based on IF-THEN rules, AND-OR graph, Semantic networks, and Frame separately. However, there are some limitations such as automatic knowledge acquisition, complicate knowledge expression, expansibility of knowledge base, speed of inference, and hierarchies among rules. To overcome these limitations, many of researchers tried to develop an automatic knowledge acquisition, composite knowledge expression, and fast inference method. As a result, the adaptability of the expert systems was improved rapidly. Nonetheless, they didn't suggest a hybrid and generalized solution to support the entire process of development of expert systems. Our proposed mechanism has five advantages empirically. First, it could extract the specific domain knowledge from incomplete database based on machine learning algorithm. Second, this mechanism could reduce the number of rules efficiently according to the rule extraction mechanism used in machine learning. Third, our proposed mechanism could expand the knowledge base unlimitedly by using relational database. Fourth, the backward inference engine developed in this study, could manipulate the knowledge base stored in relational database rapidly. Therefore, the speed of inference is faster than traditional text -oriented inference mechanism. Fifth, our composite knowledge expression mechanism could reflect the traditional knowledge expression method such as IF-THEN rules, AND-OR graph, and Relationship matrix simultaneously. To validate the inference ability of our system, a real data set was adopted from a clinical diagnosis classifying the dermatology disease.

  • In this research, we propose the mechanism to develop self-evolving expert systems (SEES) based on data mining (DM), fuzzy neural networks (FNN), and relational database (RDB)-driven forward/backward inference engine. Most researchers had tried to develop a text-oriented knowledge base (KB) and inference engine (IE). However, this approach had some limitations such as 1) automatic rule extraction, 2) manipulation of ambiguousness in knowledge, 3) expandability of knowledge base, and 4) speed of inference. To overcome these limitations, knowledge engineers had tried to develop an automatic knowledge extraction mechanism. As a result, the adaptability of the expert systems was improved. Nonetheless, they didn't suggest a hybrid and generalized solution to develop self-evolving expert systems. To this purpose, we propose an automatic knowledge acquisition and composite inference mechanism based on DM, FNN, and RDB-driven inference engine. Our proposed mechanism has five advantages. First, it can extract and reduce the specific domain knowledge from incomplete database by using data mining technology. Second, our proposed mechanism can manipulate the ambiguousness in knowledge by using fuzzy membership functions. Third, it can construct the relational knowledge base and expand the knowledge base unlimitedly with RDBMS (relational database management systems) module. Fourth, our proposed hybrid data mining mechanism can reflect both association rule-based logical inference and complicate fuzzy relationships. Fifth, RDB-driven forward and backward inference time is shorter than the traditional text-oriented inference time.

  • Inference rules of the knowledge base, generated by experts or optimization, may be often inconsistent and incomplete. This paper suggests a systematic and automatic method which extracts inference rules not from experts' subject but from data. First, input/output linguistic variables are partitioned into several properties by the fuzzy equalization algorithm and each combination of their properties comes to premise of inference rule. Then, the conclusion which is the mast suitable for the premise is selected by evaluating consistent measure. This method, automatically from data, derives inference rules from experience. It is shown through application that extracts new inference rules between hull dimensions and hull performance.

  • Most of existing expert systems developed for Web use CGI-based techniques and this frequently makes them suffer from the overburden of commercial Web servers, which deal with large-scale services. However, since HTML-based inference technique represents expert's knowledge by hyperlinks among HTML documents, the hypertext function of the Web can perform the inference efficiently in terms of time and space without the help of additional inference engines. In spite of such benefits, when the expert's knowledge is relatively large and/or complicated, the HTML-based inference technique has usually become to have a hard time of dealing with a lot of HTML documents because generation and management tasks of the numerous HTML documents would cause big trouble to the knowledge engineer. To resolve this problem, we developed an automatic generation and management tool for Web-based inference sites, called WeBIS. With this tool, a knowledge engineer can input and edit expert's knowledge using Expert's Diagram on the GUI(Graphical User Interface) environment and automatically generate hyper-linked HTML documents for Web-based inference from the Expert's Diagram.

  • 현재 국내에서 활용되고 있는 자동화된 어류 급이 장치는 특정 시간과 일정량의 사료를 시간에 맞추어 수조에 공급하는 방식이다. 이는 고령화되고 고가인 양식장 관리의 인건비는 줄일 수 있으나 양식 생산성에 결정적 요인이 되는 고가의 사료량을 지능적으로 적절히 조절하기는 매우 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 기존 자동급이 장치의 문제점을 해결하고, 양식장에서 어류의 성장률을 적절하게 유지하면서 사료 공급의 효율성을 극대화할 수 있는 퍼지추론 기반의 지능형 어류 자동 급이 모델인 FIIFF 추론 모델(Fuzzy Inference based Intelligent Fish Feeding Model)을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 FIIFF 지능형 급이 추론모델은 양식어류의 현재 생육 환경 정보 및 실시간 활동 상태를 기반으로 급이량을 산출하기 때문에 사료 급이량 적절성이 매우 높다. 본 연구에서 제안한 FIIFF 추론 모델의 급이량 산출 실험 결과에서는 8개월 동안 양식장에서 실제 투입한 급이량보다 14.8%를 절감하는 효과를 보여준다.

  • An automatic switch among ensembles of clustering algorithms is proposed as a part of the bibliographic big data retrieval system by utilizing a fuzzy inference engine as a decision support tool to select the fastest performing clustering algorithm between fuzzy C-means (FCM) clustering, Newman-Girvan clustering, and the combination of both. It aims to realize the best clustering performance with the reduction of computational complexity from O($n^3$) to O(n). The automatic switch is developed by using fuzzy logic controller written in Java and accepts 3 inputs from each clustering result, i.e., number of clusters, number of vertices, and time taken to complete the clustering process. The experimental results on PC (Intel Core i5-3210M at 2.50 GHz) demonstrates that the combination of both clustering algorithms is selected as the best performing algorithm in 20 out of 27 cases with the highest percentage of 83.99%, completed in 161 seconds. The self-adapted FCM is selected as the best performing algorithm in 4 cases and the Newman-Girvan is selected in 3 cases.The automatic switch is to be incorporated into the bibliographic big data retrieval system that focuses on visualization of fuzzy relationship using hybrid approach combining FCM and Newman-Girvan algorithm, and is planning to be released to the public through the Internet.

  • 본 논문에서는 텍스트 마이닝을 통해 생물학 문헌에서 분자 수준의 사건(event) 정보를 자동으로 추출하고, 이들 사건 정보를 기반으로 새로운 생물학 지식을 자동 추론하는 텍스트 마이닝 - 추론 통합 구조의 시스템을 다룬다. 이러한 통합 구조의 지식 발견 시스템은 미리 추출되어 데이터베이스에 등록된 정보만을 입력으로 사용하는 시스템들에 비하여 최신 정보를 보다 빨리 사용할 수 있고, 미리 정의된 형식 이외의 다양한 정보를 사용할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 반면, 텍스트 마이닝 정보 추출 결과를 그대로 사용하기 때문에 텍스트 마이닝 모듈(module)의 성능에 따라 전체 시스템의 효용성이 크게 저하될 수도 있다는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 확률 기반 필터링(filtering) 방법을 제안하여, 텍스트 마이닝 결과 중 양성 오류(false positive)를 효과적으로 제거함으로써 전체 지식 발견 시스템의 정확도 및 효용성을 높이고자 한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 확률 기반 필터링 방법은 기준(baseline) 방법으로 사용된 횟수 기반 필터링 방법보다 높은 성능을 보였다.

  • In this paper, a rule-based (transformation-based) NE recognition system is proposed. This system uses Brill's rule inference approach. The performance of the rule-based system and IdentiFinder, one of most successful stochastic systems, are compared. In the baseline case (no punctuation and no capitalisation), both systems show almost equal performance. They also have similar performance in the case of additional information such as punctuation, capitalisation and name lists. The performances of both systems degrade linearly with the number of speech recognition errors, and their rates of degradation are almost equal. These results show that automatic rule inference is a viable alternative to the HMM-based approach to NE recognition, but it retains the advantages of a rule-based approach.

  • In this research, we propose a mechanism to develop an inference engine and expert systems based on relational database (RDB) and SQL (structured query language). Generally, former researchers had tried to develop an expert systems based on text-oriented knowledge base and backward/forward (chaining) inference engine. In these researches, however, the speed of inference was remained as a tackling point in the development of agile expert systems. Especially, the forward inference needs more times than backward inference. In addition, the size of knowledge base, complicate knowledge expression method, expansibility of knowledge base, and hierarchies among rules are the critical limitations to develop an expert system. To overcome the limitations in speed of inference and expansibility of knowledge base, we proposed a relational database-oriented knowledge base and forward inference engine. Therefore, our proposed mechanism could manipulate the huge size of knowledge base efficiently. and inference with the large scaled knowledge base in a short time. To this purpose, we designed and developed an SQL-based forward inference engine using relational database. In the implementation process, we also developed a prototype expert system and presented a real-world validation data set collected from medical diagnosis field.
