In high-stakes systems such as healthcare, it is critical to understand the causal reasons behind unusual events, such as sudden changes in patient's health. Unveiling the causal reasons helps with quick diagnoses and precise treatment planning. In this paper, we propose an automated method for uncovering "if-then" logic rules to explain observational events. We introduce temporal point processes to model the events of interest, and discover the set of latent rules to explain the occurrence of events. To achieve this, we employ an Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm. In the E-step, we calculate the likelihood of each event being explained by each discovered rule. In the M-step, we update both the rule set and model parameters to enhance the likelihood function's lower bound. Notably, we optimize the rule set in a differential manner. Our approach demonstrates accurate performance in both discovering rules and identifying root causes. We showcase its promising results using synthetic and real healthcare datasets.

In such cases, transferring knowledge from the source domain becomes crucial, particularly because the Machine learning has made substantial advancements in limited initial data in the target domain may be insufficient recent decades, with its applications spanning a wide range of for effective learning. The extensive and diverse information fields such as image and speech recognition, natural language available from the source domains can significantly compensate processing, and autonomous driving. Despite these achievements, for this shortfall, providing a foundational knowledge base machine learning in biomedicine faces significant challenges, that the model can build upon as more target domain data particularly in data collection. The acquisition of labeled becomes available. Therefore, the efficiency and effectiveness data can be very costly or even unfeasible due to factors of learning in the target domain are greatly enhanced by the like ethical considerations, patient privacy, and the scarcity transferred knowledge from the source domains. of certain diseases. These challenges have led researchers to Online transfer learning entails leveraging knowledge from increasingly rely on utilizing data from related domains that a static source domain and applying it to an ongoing, evolving have a more abundant supply of data.

SDRDPy is a desktop application that allows experts an intuitive graphic and tabular representation of the knowledge extracted by any supervised descriptive rule discovery algorithm. The application is able to provide an analysis of the data showing the relevant information of the data set and the relationship between the rules, data and the quality measures associated for each rule regardless of the tool where algorithm has been executed. All of the information is presented in a user-friendly application in order to facilitate expert analysis and also the exportation of reports in different formats. Data Science involves several phases [2]: 1. In this phase, all the information from different sources from which knowledge is to be obtained is collected. In this phase, the data collected in the previous step goes through a filtering process where the variables to be studied are selected, and incomplete or erroneous data are eliminated and transformed so that the Data Science technique can process this information.

ActorSim is a goal reasoning framework developed at the Naval Research Laboratory. Originally, all goal reasoning rules were hand-crafted. This work extends ActorSim with the capability of learning by demonstration, that is, when a human trainer disagrees with a decision made by the system, the trainer can take over and show the system the correct decision. The learning component uses Ripple-Down Rules (RDR) to build new decision rules to correctly handle similar cases in the future. The system is demonstrated using the RoboCup Rescue Agent Simulation, which simulates a city-wide disaster, requiring emergency services, including fire, ambulance and police, to be dispatched to different sites to evacuate civilians from dangerous situations. The RDRs are implemented in a scripting language, FrameScript, which is used to mediate between ActorSim and the agent simulator. Using Ripple-Down Rules, ActorSim can scale to an order of magnitude more goals than the previous version.

Deep learning has become the dominating approach for object detection. To achieve accurate fine-grained detection, one needs to employ a large enough model and a vast amount of data annotations. In this paper, we propose a commonsense knowledge inference module (CKIM) which leverages commonsense knowledge to assist a lightweight deep neural network base coarse-grained object detector to achieve accurate fine-grained detection. Specifically, we focus on a scenario where a single image contains objects of similar categories but varying sizes, and we establish a size-related commonsense knowledge inference module (CKIM) that maps the coarse-grained labels produced by the DL detector to size-related fine-grained labels. Considering that rule-based systems are one of the popular methods of knowledge representation and reasoning, our experiments explored two types of rule-based CKIMs, implemented using crisp-rule and fuzzy-rule approaches, respectively. Experimental results demonstrate that compared with baseline methods, our approach achieves accurate fine-grained detection with a reduced amount of annotated data and smaller model size. Our code is available at: https://github.com/ZJLAB-AMMI/CKIM.

In this work, we introduce and analyze an approach to knowledge transfer from one collection of facts to another without the need for entity or relation matching. The method works for both canonicalized knowledge bases and uncanonicalized or open knowledge bases, i.e., knowledge bases where more than one copy of a real-world entity or relation may exist. The main contribution is a method that can make use of large-scale pre-training on facts, which were collected from unstructured text, to improve predictions on structured data from a specific domain. The introduced method is most impactful on small datasets such as ReVerb20k, where a 6% absolute increase of mean reciprocal rank and 65% relative decrease of mean rank over the previously best method was achieved, despite not relying on large pre-trained models like Bert. To understand the obtained pre-trained models better, we then introduce a novel dataset for the analysis of pre-trained models for Open Knowledge Base Completion, called Doge (Diagnostics of Open knowledge Graph Embeddings). It consists of 6 subsets and is designed to measure multiple properties of a pre-trained model: robustness against synonyms, ability to perform deductive reasoning, presence of gender stereotypes, consistency with reverse relations, and coverage of different areas of general knowledge. Using the introduced dataset, we show that the existing OKBC models lack consistency in the presence of synonyms and inverse relations and are unable to perform deductive reasoning. Moreover, their predictions often align with gender stereotypes, which persist even when presented with counterevidence. We additionally investigate the role of pre-trained word embeddings and demonstrate that avoiding biased word embeddings is not a sufficient measure to prevent biased behavior of OKBC models.

The detection and identification of induction motor faults using machine learning and signal processing is a valuable approach to avoiding plant disturbances and shutdowns in the context of Industry 4.0. In this work, we present a study on the detection and identification of induction motor faults using machine learning and signal processing with MATLAB Simulink. We developed a model of a three-phase induction motor in MATLAB Simulink to generate healthy and faulty motor data. The data collected included stator currents, rotor currents, input power, slip, rotor speed, and efficiency. We generated four faults in the induction motor: open circuit fault, short circuit fault, overload, and broken rotor bars. We collected a total of 150,000 data points with a 60-40% ratio of healthy to faulty motor data. We applied Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to detect and identify healthy and unhealthy conditions and added a distinctive feature in our data. The generated dataset was trained different machine learning models. On comparing the accuracy of the models on the test set, we concluded that the Decision Tree algorithm performed the best with an accuracy of about 92%. Our study contributes to the literature by providing a valuable approach to fault detection and classification with machine learning models for industrial applications.

The article identified 42 cognitive architectures for creating general artificial intelligence (AGI) and proposed a set of interrelated functional blocks that an agent approaching AGI in its capabilities should possess. Since the required set of blocks is not found in any of the existing architectures, the article proposes a new cognitive architecture for intelligent systems approaching AGI in their capabilities. As one of the key solutions within the framework of the architecture, a universal method of knowledge representation is proposed, which allows combining various non-formalized, partially and fully formalized methods of knowledge representation in a single knowledge base, such as texts in natural languages, images, audio and video recordings, graphs, algorithms, databases, neural networks, knowledge graphs, ontologies, frames, essence-property-relation models, production systems, predicate calculus models, conceptual models, and others. To combine and structure various fragments of knowledge, archigraph models are used, constructed as a development of annotated metagraphs. As components, the cognitive architecture being developed includes machine consciousness, machine subconsciousness, blocks of interaction with the external environment, a goal management block, an emotional control system, a block of social interaction, a block of reflection, an ethics block and a worldview block, a learning block, a monitoring block, blocks of statement and solving problems, self-organization and meta learning block.

Organizations execute decisions within business processes on a daily basis whilst having to take into account multiple stakeholders who might require multiple point of views of the same process. Moreover, the complexity of the information systems running these business processes is generally high as they are linked to databases storing all the relevant data and aspects of the processes. Given the presence of multiple objects within an information system which support the processes in their enactment, decisions are naturally influenced by both these perspectives, logged in object-centric process logs. However, the discovery of such decisions from object-centric process logs is not straightforward as it requires to correctly link the involved objects whilst considering the sequential constraints that business processes impose as well as correctly discovering what a decision actually does. This paper proposes the first object-centric decision-mining algorithm called Integrated Object-centric Decision Discovery Algorithm (IODDA). IODDA is able to discover how a decision is structured as well as how a decision is made. Moreover, IODDA is able to discover which activities and object types are involved in the decision-making process. Next, IODDA is demonstrated with the first artificial knowledge-intensive process logs whose log generators are provided to the research community.
