Exercise: Concept Learning Revisited

Classifying Birds

- many feature can be used for classification
- classification is important.
The Challenge of Classification

Cognitive systems
Assume both features (percept) and actions are binary, then the input output combination will be a large number. so that the mapping is complex, large, and hard to handle

Equivalence Classes

with Classification, we can index action based on concepts of percepts and reduce the number of combination of percept-action mapping.
