{ "pk": 30967, "title": "Explanation-based Learning of Correctness: Towards a Model of the Self-Explanation Effect", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Two major techniques in machine learning, explanation-based learning and explanation completion, are both superficially plausible models for ChJ's self-explanation effect, wherein the amount of explanation given to examples while studying them correlates with the amount the subject learns from them. W e attempted to simulate Chi's protocol data with the simpler of the two learning processes, explanation completion, in order to find out how much of the self-explanation effect it could account for. Although explanation completion did not turn out to be a good model of the data, we discovered a new learning technique, called explanation-based learning of correctness, that combines explanation-based learning and explanation completion and does a much better job of explaining the protocol data. The new learning process is based on the assumption that subjects use a certain kind of plausible reasoning.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Paper Presentations -- Group 4: Learning and Memory", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/96q3g4wz", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Kurt", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "VanLehn", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Carnegie Mellon University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "William", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Ball", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Carnegie Mellon University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Bernadette", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Kowalski", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Carnegie Mellon University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "1990-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/30967/galley/20816/download/" } ] }
