A Delta Debugger for ILP Query Execution
Because query execution is the most crucial part of Inductive Logic
Programming (ILP) algorithms, a lot of effort is invested in developing faster
execution mechanisms. These execution mechanisms typically have a low-level
implementation, making them hard to debug. Moreover, other factors such as the
complexity of the problems handled by ILP algorithms and size of the code base
of ILP data mining systems make debugging at this level a very difficult job.
In this work, we present the trace-based debugging approach currently used in
the development of new execution mechanisms in hipP, the engine underlying the
ACE Data Mining system. This debugger uses the delta debugging algorithm to
automatically reduce the total time needed to expose bugs in ILP execution,
thus making manual debugging step much lighter.Comment: Paper presented at the 16th Workshop on Logic-based Methods in

A Boxology of Design Patterns for Hybrid Learning and Reasoning Systems
We propose a set of compositional design patterns to describe a large variety
of systems that combine statistical techniques from machine learning with
symbolic techniques from knowledge representation. As in other areas of
computer science (knowledge engineering, software engineering, ontology
engineering, process mining and others), such design patterns help to
systematize the literature, clarify which combinations of techniques serve
which purposes, and encourage re-use of software components. We have validated
our set of compositional design patterns against a large body of recent
literature.Comment: 12 pages,55 reference

Neural Relational Learning Through Semi-Propositionalization of Bottom Clauses
Relational learning can be described as the task of learning first-order logic rules from examples. It has enabled a number of new machine learning applications, e.g. graph mining and link analysis in social networks. The CILP++ system is a neural-symbolic system which can perform efficient relational learning, by being able to process first-order logic knowledge into a neural network. CILP++ relies on BCP, a recently discovered propositionalization algorithm, to perform relational learning. However, efficient knowledge extraction from such networks is an open issue and features generated by BCP do not have an independent relational description, which prevents sound knowledge extraction from such networks. We present a methodology for generating independent propositional features for BCP by using semi-propositionalization of bottom clauses. Empirical results obtained in comparison with the original version of BCP show that this approach has comparable accuracy and runtimes, while allowing proper relational knowledge representation of features for knowledge extraction from CILP++ networks

Neural-Symbolic Learning and Reasoning: Contributions and Challenges
The goal of neural-symbolic computation is to integrate robust connectionist learning and sound symbolic reasoning. With the recent advances in connectionist learning, in particular deep neural networks, forms of representation learning have emerged. However, such representations have not become useful for reasoning. Results from neural-symbolic computation have shown to offer powerful alternatives for knowledge representation, learning and reasoning in neural computation. This paper recalls the main contributions and discusses key challenges for neural-symbolic integration which have been identified at a recent Dagstuhl seminar

Entropy Based Feature Selection For Multi-Relational Naïve Bayesian Classifier
Current industries data’s are stored in relation structures. In usual approach to mine these data, we often use to join several relations to form a single relation using foreign key links, which is known as flatten. Flatten may cause troubles such as time consuming, data redundancy and statistical skew on data. Hence, the critical issues arise that how to mine data directly on numerous relations. The solution of the given issue is the approach called multi-relational data mining (MRDM). Other issues are irrelevant or redundant attributes in a relation may not make contribution to classification accuracy. Thus, feature selection is an essential data pre- processing step in multi-relational data mining. By filtering out irrelevant or redundant features from relations for data mining, we improve classification accuracy, achieve good time performance, and improve comprehensibility of the models. We had proposed the entropy based feature selection method for Multi-relational Naïve Bayesian Classifier. We have use method InfoDist and Pearson’s Correlation parameters, which will be used to filter out irrelevant and redundant features from the multi-relational database and will enhance classification accuracy. We analyzed our algorithm over PKDD financial dataset and achieved the better accuracy compare to the existing features selection methods
