Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture: A System of Patterns

IN THIS PAPER WE DISCUSS OUR APROACH TO LEARNING CLASSIFICATION RULES FROM DATA. WE STETCH OUT TWO MODULES OF OUR ARCHITECTURE, NAMELY LINNEO AND GAR.LINNEO, WICH IS A KNOWLEDGE ACQUISITION TOOL FOR ILL - STRUCTURED DOMAINS AUTOMATICALLY GENERATING CLASSES FROM EXAMPLES THAT INCREMENTALLY WORKS WITH AN UNSUPERVISED STRATEGY. LINNEO´S OUTPUT, A REPRESENTATION OF THE CONCEPTUAL STRUCTURE OF THE DOMAIN IN TERMS OF CLASSES, IS THE INPUT TO GAR THAT IS USED TO GENERATE A SET. GAR CAN GENERATE BOTH CONJUCTIVE AND DISJUCTIVE RULES.
