  • A hierarchical neural network model for Japanese toward detecting mild cognitive impairment

    Abstract

    We found that some signs of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) might be presented in a structure of a sentence and a relation between sentences talked by a man, and develop a neural network model which has an analogy with the hierarchical structure of speakers, topics, sentences and words in Japanese. We build our model based on 2‐layered bi‐directional LSTM, corresponding to words‐sentences and sentences‐topics hierarchy. As a layer corresponding to speakers, we use a linear classifier with self‐attention. The test result shows a largely improved AUC, compared with another test by using the normal 2‐layered bi‐directional LSTM with TBPTT. The result also indicates that there are some characteristic patterns in a talk by an elderly person with MCI. We classify the character vectors of topics generated from our model through learning into clusters whose number is 1/10 of the number of persons in our data. Since these clusters have almost less than 10% or more than 90% rate of positive share, we conclude that we can develop a screening method based on a talk in Japanese by an elderly person in the near future.

  • Dynamic Epistemic Reasoning with Awareness and Its Legal Application

    Vietnam Journal of Computer Science, 25 Feb. 2019, [Reviewed]
    Concerning a software tool of legal reasoning, it is important to describe the prediction about the result of a criminal action, because a crime is often caused by the unpredictability of the result of the defendant. In the court, the judge needs to investigate the predictability and the intention of the agent. Previously, we have formalized the reasoning process of judgment by action model in dynamic epistemic logic (DEL) and have attempted to describe the precedents. However, the prediction in legal cases depends not only on the states of knowledge but also on the limited degree of attention by agents. In this paper, we employ DEL with awareness for multi-agent to represent the predictability and model the typical criminal precedents. We propose a revised semantics of action model with awareness which can define each basic action model to reproduce the agent’s considering process. To describe the legal reasoning we introduce an extension of modeling program DEMO to include the awareness (we call it DEMO[Formula: see text]) and present a GUI in this extended program to calculate the updated epistemic model easily and to classify precedents according to the degree of prediction. In the end, we calculate the epistemic models of typical criminal precedents by this newly developed tool and estimate them.
