- Description: Prudence analysis (PA) is a relatively new, practical and highly innovative approach to solving the problem of brittleness in knowledge based systems (KBS). PA is essentially an online validation approach, where as each situation or case is presented to the KBS for inferencing the result is simultaneously validated. This paper introduces a new approach to PA that analyses the structure of knowledge rather than the comparing cases with archived situations. This new approach is positively compared against earlier systems for PA, strongly indicating the viability of the approach.

- Description: Multiobjective reinforcement learning (MORL) extends RL to problems with multiple conflicting objectives. This paper argues for designing MORL systems to produce a set of solutions approximating the Pareto front, and shows that the common MORL technique of scalarisation has fundamental limitations when used to find Pareto-optimal policies. The work is supported by the presentation of three new MORL benchmarks with known Pareto fronts.

- Description: Many researchers and developers of knowledge based systems (KBS) have been incorporating the notion of context. However, they generally treat context as a static entity, neglecting many connectionists’ work in learning hidden and dynamic contexts, which aids generalization. This paper presents a method that models hidden context within a symbolic domain achieving a level of generalisation. Results indicate that the method can learn the information that experts have difficulty providing by generalising the captured knowledge.
