There exists a large amount of knowledge representation models. But most of them have significant limitations at the epistemic level. They do not have explanatory power. Most of them do not have means to represent some functional needs to work…

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…

This paper deals with lifelong learning. Based on a three-year case study it provides evidence of innovations in this area. The paper aims to add to the body of work in blended learning by providing evidence of knowledge, persuasion, decision,…

This paper presents a group of elements to improve the teaching and learning in technological education, applied to Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). These elements are based on some contributions issued from contemporary education models, namely, the thematic approach, meaningful…

Document classification has already been widely studied. In fact, some studies compared feature selection techniques or feature space transformation whereas some others compared the performance of different algorithms. Recently, following the rising interest towards the Support Vector Machine, various studies…

El hombre desde que nace empieza a aprender. Algunos conocimientos se adquieren sin percatarnos de ellos, otros necesitan esfuerzos y dedicación, algunos son estrictamente necesarios, otros no lo son tanto. El proceso de búsqueda de relaciones es un modo de…

The Answer Validation Exercise (AVE) is a pilot track within the Cross-Language Evaluation Forum (CLEF) 2006. The AVE competition provides an evaluation frame-
work for answer validations in Question Answering (QA). In our participation in AVE, we propose a system…

Data mining is at the core of the knowledge discovery process. However, an initial preprocessing step is crucial for assuring reliable results within this process. Preprocessing of data is a time-consuming and non-trivial task since data quality issues should be…
