  Knowledge representation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Knowledge representation (KR) is a research and application domain in artificial intelligence, cognitive science, as well as in the knowledge management and knowledge engineering.
"Knowledge Representation" (KR) is most commonly used to refer to representations intended for processing by modern computers, and in particular, for representations consisting of explicit objects (the class of all elephants, or Clyde a certain individual), and of assertions or claims about them ('Clyde is an elephant', or 'all elephants are grey').
The recent fashion in knowledge representation languages is to use XML as the low-level syntax.

 Features of Business Knowledge - Knowledge Manager
Knowledge is an intangible, volatile capital, difficult to concretize and conserve.
Knowledge management instead, expects to maintain and reuse the acquired knowledge, considering knowledge as a permanent construction in which every new information is integrated with the previous one, and modifies it, and therefore nothing becomes really obsolete, if it is integrated with the new.
If company executives focused this knowledge aspect at their best, they could use even technology acquisitions as enterprise learning processes, and would be more prone to assign consistent budgets to the professional update and development of their workers, and in exchange would obtain higher productivity.

 Knowledge Manipulation
In general knowledge manipulation in biological brains was done using injected nanomachines to directly affect the synaptic structures of the brain relating to specific items of knowledge in a subtle manner.
After many decades of research, techniques were developed to allow knowledge (and other functions) within the sophont (and non-sophont) brain to be rewritten at will, once the detailed structure of a given sophont brain had been mapped to a sufficient level of detail.
Knowledge in the sophont mind is inevitably associated with many other things, so sophonts who had this type of knowledge implanted often ended up with elements of the original knowledge holder's personality being implanted in them too.

 AI-Techniques and the Knowledge Pump
For each of the activities in the knowledge pump various techniques are available, some of which have their origins in artificial intelligence and knowledge technology.
The low utility of knowledge representation theories for corporate memories is in our view due to the fact that companies that develop a corporate memory tend to concentrate on the knowledge that will give them a competitive advantage.
A disadvantage is that the newly acquired knowledge is not explicitly articulated in the form of rules and guidelines.

 Knowledge Discovery in Databases: Tools and Techniques
Knowledge discovery is defined as ``the non-trivial extraction of implicit, unknown, and potentially useful information from data'' [6].
For this technique to be considered useful in terms of knowledge discovery, the discovered knowledge must be interesting; that is, it must have potential value to the user.
Probabilistic techniques may be used in diagnostic systems and in planning and control systems [2].

K A is knowledge held by an expert, understanding of the nature of expertise is essential in order to be able to choose from and use the acquisition techniques available.
In addition to the selection of techniques, acquiring knowledge from multiple experts requires that knowledge engineers plan in advance for the resolution of conflict among the experts and techniques to represent the diverse knowledge that may be forthcoming.
Knowledge Acquisition is a good way of seeing and knowing what an expert is doing, how he acts what basic knowledge he has and how he is building knowledge to what he already knows.

 PortBlue - Knowledge Management Overview
There is no product, managerial technique, or knowledge transfer approach that can single-handedly enable a large, global organization to disseminate the many kinds of expertise required to build a high-performing business.
Knowledge management techniques vary based on the mode of knowledge transfer and the degree of formality in the transfer process.
The most common method of live knowledge transfer across companies in all industries is informal interactions between experts and practitioners through a sustained mentoring or apprentice relationship, or through brief discussions by phone or videoconference.

 Knowledge Management
We envision knowledge workplaces where the boundaries between document management, content management, and knowledge management are broken down, and where knowledge management is an effortless part of day to day activities.
A current race for a solution goes by the deceptively blah name of 'knowledge management,' or K.M. It is an effort to bring Google-like clarity to the swamp of data on each person's machine or network, and it is based on the underappreciated tension between a computer's capacity and a person's.
Techniques developed in artificial intelligence for knowledge acquisition, representation and discovery are seen as relevant to KM.

 Knowledge management methods and strategies applied to concept mapping: innovation in learning technology
Knowledge Manager is designed on concepts and methods from human-computer interaction, cognitive psychology, human factors, artificial intelligence and psycholinguistics.
While the traditional concept mapping techniques fall short of supporting deep and accelerated learning, distance learning, or the inclusive classroom, knowledge management methods and strategies on concept maps enable deep interaction with knowledge.
There is a constant growth in the use of Knowledge Manager in all activities  that need to represent, use and manage knowledge, in all learning environments, personal, school or organizational.

 Reading Techniques
Software reading techniques increase the effectiveness of individual reviewers by providing guidelines that they can use, during the preparation phase of a software inspection, to examine (or "read") a given software document and identify defects.
Procedural software reading techniques help make the review process perspective-driven; that is, individual inspectors should follow a procedure that reviews the document from the perspective of a stakeholder of the document or some other focus of interest.
The aims of this program are to continue evolving the reading techniques to improve their effectiveness, and to better understand important environmental attributes that affect how effectively they can be tailored.

 Knowledge management technology
Although the exchange is superficially one of purely explicit knowledge, the expert must first make a judgment as to the nature of the problem and then as to the most likely solution, both of which bring his or her tacit knowledge into play.
The essence of this model is to divide the knowledge creation processes into four categories: socialization (tacit knowledge formation and communication), externalization (formation of explicit knowledge from tacit knowledge), combination (use of explicit knowledge), and internalization (formation of new tacit knowledge from explicit knowledge).
Although early generations of knowledge management solutions (solutions typically integrate several technologies) focused on explicit knowledge in the form of documents and databases, there is a trend to expand the scope of the solutions somewhat to integrate technologies that can, to some extent, foster the use of tacit knowledge.

 The Meditation Techniques - Elan Vital - Maharaji - Cult
All four techniques (among lots of others) are described in detail in practically all medieval (12th century onwards) yoga texts such as Gheranda Samhita, Hatha-Yoga Pradipika, Shiva Samhita, and Yoga-Kundalini Upanishad.
Three of the techniques Hans Ji probably learned from Sarupanand, since they are in common use within the Radhasoamis, the fourth ('nectar') he probably picked up from some hatha-yoga teacher, exact source unknown.
This technique is well-known, and a favorite among the Radhasoamis.

 Comparing Knowledge Elicitation Techniques
The aim of this paper is to formally characterise elicitation techniques concerning the required time of their application in relation to a quantitative measure of the knowledge they provide.
Modern knowledge acquisition methodologies such as KADS (Wielinga, Schreiber, and Breuker, 1992), VITAL (O'Hara, Motta, and Shadbolt, 1994) and PROTÉGÉ (Puerta, Egar, Tu, and Musen, 1992) are concerned with conceptual modelling (based on the elicited knowledge) and with later stages in the KBS development process.
The knowledge elicitation process is influenced by various factors, including the number of experts, the kind of problem, the context in which the elicitation process takes place, and even the person who elicits the knowledge by interacting with the experts.

 Thinking XML: Basic XML and RDF techniques for knowledge management, Part 1   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Columnist Uche Ogbuji begins his practical exploration of knowledge management with XML by illustrating techniques for populating Resource Description Framework (RDF) models with data from existing XML formats.
In many emerging XML applications, the knowledge encapsulated in the application throughout its lifetime is stored in XML documents in a database or repository.
In our example, the application has already been developed, and basic techniques are used for tasks such as sending action item reminders to users, supporting search and browsing, and so on.

 NWREL: 1999 Annual Report: New Techniques from New Knowledge
Russia was the first to send a person into space; the Civil Rights movement shined the spotlight on poor achievement of minority and low economic students; federal responsibility was recognized for meeting special needs, such as educating the handicapped and assuring a skilled and productive workforce.
Education researchers in colleges and universities were beginning to significantly increase the knowledge about effective teaching and learning.
What was needed, concluded both education practitioners and policymakers, was to take this research knowledge and use it to develop new techniques that could be easily implemented by practitioners and policymakers, and used in classrooms.
