Where the old objective of a parser was to make a grammatical analysis of a sentence, we decided that the new objective should be a meaning analysis of the sentence. In other words, rather than concentrate on how a sentence was constructed, we worried about how to represent what was happening in the event that the sentence describes. 3, record 2, English, - conceptual%20analysis

Arranging objects (situations, facts) into classes characterized by simple descriptive concepts rather than into classes defined by a predetermined measure of similarity among their members, as in conventional clustering. 2, record 3, English, - conceptual%20clustering
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Conceptual clustering is another important type of induction. The inputs for a conceptual-clustering problem include a set of objects with known attributes. The goal is to produce a small taxonomy for the objects; i.e., a subset hierarchy of classes of similar objects in which the subclasses of each are mutually exclusive and jointly exhaustive. 3, record 3, English, - conceptual%20clustering
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 2 CONT
Clustering can be approached formally, as a branch of pattern recognition, looking for a group with high intra-class but low inter-class similarity. It can also be approached in a classification (this is sometimes called "conceptual clustering"). 1, record 3, English, - conceptual%20clustering

L'apprentissage inductif se divise en deux sous-domaines. Le premier sous-domaine est l'apprentissage des similarités. Le deuxième sous-domaine est la classification symbolique (conceptual clustering) où on regroupe ensemble des exemples présentant des propriétés communes dont la description en intention est intéressante à quelque titre. 1, record 3, French, - classification%20symbolique
