Knowledge of Language and Knowledge Science
Di Sciullo Anna Maria · Frontiers in artificial intelligence and applications · 2018
Knowledge of language and principles of naturalistic learning are rarely used in information extraction systems. The main challenge for these systems is to provide conceptually relevant information while minimizing computational costs. This paper argues that knowledge of language and principles of naturalistic learning may enhance the capacity of intelligent systems to process linguistic expressions and simulate humans' capacity for language. We contrast humans' genetic endowment to genetic programming, as well as naturalistic learning to Reinforcement Learning used to extract information form texts. We point to limits of machine learning methodology and we draw consequences for knowledge science.
