English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
CONT

To overcome the [limitations] of vision models in open-set conditions, the community has proposed techniques for epistemic uncertainty estimation. Epistemic uncertainty [is] the uncertainty experienced by a model when it has a lack of knowledge ...

Record 2 2024-09-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
CONT

Epistemic uncertainty arises from a lack of knowledge or information. By definition, it is reducible, as adding more training data enables the model to capture underlying patterns or relationships[,] resulting [in] a more accurate representation of the system.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Intelligence artificielle
CONT

L'incertitude épistémique est causée par un manque d’informations ou de connaissances [en ce qui concerne] un domaine. [Elle] peut généralement être réduite [par l'ajout] de données, si celles-ci couvrent mieux le domaine étudié.

What is dynamic epistemic logic (DEL)? It is a framework within logical theory that combines epistemic logic, which deals with knowledge and beliefs, with dynamic logic, which focuses on the effects of actions on knowledge.

Qu'est-ce que la logique épistémique dynamique? Il s’agit d’un cadre au sein de la théorie logique qui combine la logique épistémique, qui traite des connaissances et des croyances, avec la logique dynamique, qui se concentre sur les effets des actions sur les connaissances.

  • Mental Disorders
DEF

... an oppressive system (stemming from non-suicidal perspectives) functioning at the normative, discursive, medical, legal, social, political, economic, and epistemic levels in which suicidal people experience multiple forms of injustice and violence.

CONT

Currently, suicidality is inadequately engaged with in suicide prevention methods. The key focus is on preventing people from dying, rather than validating suicidal ideation as a legitimate experience. ... in this refusal to validate suicidality, suicidal people are subjected to suicidism – a term ... coined to describe the oppression suicidal people face which silences them and views their desire to die as illegitimate.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Problèmes sociaux
  • Troubles mentaux
DEF

[...] système d’oppression(construit à partir des perspectives non suicidaires) aux plans normatif, discursif, médical, légal, social, politique, économique et épistémique, dans lequel les personnes suicidaires vivent de multiples formes d’injustice et de violence [...]

CONT

Le suicidisme, qui domine en santé et services sociaux, manifeste une perception foncièrement négative des personnes suicidaires, de leur discours et de leur vision de la mort, lesquels sont d’emblée jugés irrecevables, irrationnels et infondés. En tant que système qui dévalue les perceptions, les actions et les discours des personnes ayant des idées suicidaires, le suicidisme invalide les paroles et les expériences de ces personnes, nuisant paradoxalement et fort probablement [...] à la prévention du suicide, à l’accueil de leur souffrance et à la crédibilité accordée à leur vécu expérientiel.

DEF

A level of diagnosis concerned with the individual whose behavior and knowledge are of interest to the behavioral and epistemic diagnosis. It supports the view of the student, not only as a recipient of communicable knowledge, but as an agent with an identity of his own, engaged in an active learning process. Collecting information about this agent's individual characteristics can be a productive diagnostic activity. Individual diagnosis remains an area for further research.

CONT

Individual diagnosis requires a specialized, largely domain-independent vocabulary, which the field still needs to investigate.

Record 18 1994-10-20

English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Continuing Education
DEF

Pedagogical activity aiming at collecting and inferring information about the student or his actions. This task often involves the construction of a student model.

OBS

Etymologically, the word simply means "to know thoroughly" but is perhaps better understood here as "to know sufficiently" given the pragmatic and necessarily approximate nature of the task.

CONT

In essence, diagnosis can be viewed as a process of reasoning about reasoning and about learning. As a pure modeling activity, it reconstructs knowledge states responsible for observable behaviour by a reversal of the individual model that has processed knowledge into actions.

CONT

In pedagogical diagnosis, the search spaces representing the possible student models are frequently very large - increasingly so as models become more sophisticated.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
CONT

The evolution of the SOPHIE project can be viewed as a search for the right ingredients of "cognitive fidelity" in modeling expert reasoning. SOPHIE-I abandons the automata of the METEOROLOGY tutor to take advantage of mathematically based computational formalisms, which place the emphasis on physically faithful simulations. In an effort to gain cognitive fidelity, SOPHIE-III moves away from the structurally isomorphic representations of quantitative simulations to concentrate on mental models, but in some sense it goes too far and becomes too specialized to a given form of reasoning in the context of a specific task.

CONT

Both internal and external representational mappings can have varying degrees of epistemic fidelity, that is, they can reflect the epistemic source a little or a lot.

CONT

An expert system is cognitively faithful if its own internal solutions correspond to the solutions a human would produce. MATHPERT solves math problems in the way we teach students to do, rather than using high-powered algorithms. Cognitive fidelity must be designed for from the beginning, as the demand for cognitive fidelity complicates the construction of an expert system considerably.

DEF

Diagnosis at the epistemic level. It distinguishes three phases in the inference of a knowledge state: direct assignment of credit and blame (determining which knowledge elements have been directly involved in the available account of behavior), structural consistency (broadcasting of repercussions of this direct recognition on the rest of the knowledge state), and longitudinal consistency (updating of the existing student model according to new information).

Ce sont le traçage de modèles, la reconstruction procédurale ou non procédurale, et la reconnaissance d’objectifs pédagogiques en tant qu'éléments du curriculum.
