Knowledge acquisition for systems based on knowledge can be called knowledge engineering, according to Feigenbaum (1980) who used the term to describe the reduction of a wide context of knowledge for a set of facts and rules. The term Knowledge…

La llegada de las Tics a la escuela, han provocado un cambio en los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje, como así también un cambio en el alumno que ahora es el principal protagonista de su conocimiento, y con lo cual,…

O processo de Descoberta de Conhecimento em Bancos de Dados Geográficos (DCBDG) busca encontrar padrões, informações e relacionamento espacial implícitos em dados descritivos e espaciais armazenados em bancos de dados geográficos. Este tipo de descoberta é muito importante para o…

Current reasoning systems attempt to model an agent's knowledge and interaction with its environment in a symbolic manner. This environment, its world is generally dynamic and changing due to natural evolution or the actions of other agents that are a…

Después de transcurridos más de 10 años desde la primera Lista Roja de la herpetofauna de la República Argentina realizada por la Asociación Herpetológica Argentina en el año 2000, se re-categorizaron las dos especies de caimanes presentes en el país…

Instruction may be seen as the intentional creation of conditions around learning so as to facilitate the achievement of determined goals. Normally, instruction is based upon certain educational strategies. It is well accepted in the field of educational technology that…

This article presents the confluence of two general ideas: Defeasible Logic Programming (DeLP, an argumentation based formalism for representing knowledge and reasoning) and Abduction in logic. In first place, we introduce a framework that formally states the problem of doing…

One of the key aspects in the design of an architecture for autonomous agents is the way in which beleifs are revised in the face of new information. An intelligent agent must be prepared to handle new information (be it…

We present a socially inspired approach that allows agents in Multi-Agent Systems to speed up their own learning process through communication. Thereby, they are able to trade off impact of knowledge by mutation dependent on the recent performance of the…

Metrics used on development of expert systems is not a well investigated problem area. This article suggests some metrics to be used to measure the maturity of the conceptualization process and the complexity of the decision process in the problem…
