ModuleInducer: Automating the Extraction of Knowledge from Biological Sequences

Korol, Oksana 14 October 2011 (has links)
In the past decade, fast advancements have been made in the sequencing, digitalization and collection of the biological data. However the bottleneck remains at the point of analysis and extraction of patterns from the data. We have developed a method that is aimed at widening this bottleneck by automating the knowledge extraction from the biological data. Our approach is aimed at discovering patterns in a set of DNA sequences based on the location of transcription factor binding sites or any other biological markers with the emphasis of discovering relationships. A variety of statistical and computational methods exists to analyze such data. However, they either require an initial hypothesis, which is later tested, or classify the data based on its attributes. Our approach does not require an initial hypothesis and the classification it produces is based on the relationships between attributes. The value of such approach is that is is able to uncover new knowledge about the data by inducing a general theory based on basic known rules. The core of our approach lies in an inductive logic programming engine, which, based on positive and negative examples as well as background knowledge, is able to induce a descriptive, human-readable theory, describing the data. An application provides an end-to-end analysis of DNA sequences. A simple to use Web interface accepts a set of related sequences to be analyzed, set of negative example sequences to contrast the main set (optional), and a set of possible genetic markers as position-specific scoring matrices. A Java-based backend formats the sequences, determines the location of the genetic markers inside them and passes the information to the ILP engine, which induces the theory. The model, assumed in our background knowledge, is a set of basic interactions between biological markers in any DNA sequence. This makes our approach applicable to analyze a wide variety of biological problems, including detection of cis-regulatory modules and analysis of ChIP-Sequencing experiments. We have evaluated our method in the context of such applications on two real world datasets as well as a number of specially designed synthetic datasets. The approach has shown to have merit even in situations when no significant classification could be determined.

Επαγωγικός λογικός προγραμματισμός και Progol : προβλήματα εκμάθησης γραμματικής

Πετρόπουλος, Κωνσταντίνος 31 August 2012 (has links)
Σε αυτήν την εργασία μελετάται ο Επαγωγικός Λογικός Προγραμματισμός μέσα απο το πρίσμα της μάθησης της Γραμματικής της αγγλικής γλώσσας. Ο λόγος που επιλέχθηκε αυτό το πρόβλημα είναι ότι εξομοιώνει, μέχρι ενός σγημείου, τον τρόπο που τα παιδιά μαθαίνουν να μιλούν κάποια γλώσσα, υπό την έννοια ότι μαθαίνουν να μιλάνε χωρίς να έρθουν σε επαφή με τους κανόνες – τη γραμματική – της γλώσσας, αλλά από την επαφή τους με τα με τα ερεθίσματα – τα παραδείγματα – που έχουν από τον περίγυρό τους. / This paper is about Inductive Logic Programming through the prism of a problem. In our case Grammar Learning.

Component assembly and theorem proving in constraint handling rules

No. of bitstreams: 1 license.txt: 1748 bytes, checksum: 8a4605be74aa9ea9d79846c1fba20a33 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2009 / Devido á grande demanda por softwares cada vez mais robustos, complexos e flexíveis, e, sobretudo, pelo curtíssimo tempo de entrega exigido, a engenharia de software tem procurado novos meios de desenvolvimento que supram satisfatoriamente essas demandas. Uma forma de galgar esses novos patamares de produtividade provém do uso de uma metodologia baseada em agentes que se comunicam e com isso, ao invés dos programas serem estritamente programados, o comportamento destes sistemas de software emerge da interação de agentes, robôs, ou subsistemas aut onomos, independentes, além de declarativamente especificados. Isto provê a habilidade para automaticamente configurá -los, otimizá-los, monitorá-los, adaptá-los, diagnosticá-los, repará-los e protegê-los dentro do ambiente. Contudo, um grande problema das linguagens declarativas é a falta de mecanismos que permitem a melhor estruturação de dados, facilitando portanto, o reuso. Portanto, esta dissertação explica o desenvolvimento de nova linguagem lógica declarativa para programar sistemas de raciocínio automático de uma forma modularizada: C2HR∨. A linguagem base escolhida para a extensão com componentes lógicos foi CHR. Os motivos para essa escolha são definidos ao longo da dissertação. Duas abordagens, portanto, são apresentadas: a primeira, conhecida como CHRat, foi desenvolvida numa parceria juntamente com o grupo de pesquisas CONTRAINTES do INRIA/Rocquencourt-Paris, onde o programador ´e o responsável direto por definir os componentes CHR, permitindo o seu reuso por outros componentes; a segunda aplicação, CHRtp, visa atender prioritariamente requisitos de completude e, por isso, se baseia em procedimentos lógicos de inferência como: o raciocínio para frente, o raciocínio para trás, e a resolução/factoring. A dissertação mostra também alguns exemplos práticos, onde uso de componentes facilita radicalmente sua implementação. As contribuições almejadas com essa dissertação são: a definição de uma família bem formalizada de provadores de teoremas automáticos, que podem trabalhar com sentenças especificadas em lógica horn ou em lógica de primeira ordem, a extensão de CHR como uma linguagem modular de propósito geral, a melhor estruturação de bases conhecimentos e até o uso em conjunto de bases heterogêneas, a definição de uma linguagem para a fácil e direta estruturação de dados por meio de componentes, dentre outras

[en] A LOGIC PROGRAMMING ENVIRONMENT SUPPORTED BY THE SEMANTIC GAMES TESTER / [pt] UM AMBIENTE DE PROGRAMAÇÃO LÓGICA SUPORTADO POR UM PROVADOR SEMÂNTICO

ALBERTO JOSE FONSECA ADEODATO 11 December 2006 (has links)
[pt] Haeusler e Pequeno desenvolveram um método de prova de teoremas baseado em jogos semânticos introduzidos por Hintikka. Posteriormente Rios desenvolveu o programa PROGRAME que implementa este método. Este trabalho descreve um ambiente de programação lógica desenvolvido com a finalidade de oferecer ao usuário facilidades de programação lógica suportada pelo provador PROGRAME. O ambiente foi idealizado o mais próximo possível nos ambientes PROLOG, com a facilidade adicional de permitir que no código do programa a ele submetido sejam utilizados indiferentemente goals a serem provados neste ambiente ou PROGRAME. / [en] Haeusler and Pequeno developed a theorem proving method based on semântica games introduced by Hintikka. Later, Rios developed the program PROGRAME witch implements this method. Our work describes a logic programming environment developed with the aim of offering the user logic programming facilities supported by the PROGRAME prover. The programming environment was chosen to be PROLOG-like with additional facility of permiting that a given goal can b proved both by or environment and by the PROGRAME prover
