Elicitation of Collective Intelligence by Fuzzy Relational Methodology

국문 초록 (Abstract)

집단지성은 개인들의 협업과 경쟁을 통한 공통이해에 기반한 생산으로서 대중의 지혜를 창출하는 개별 지성들의 통합체라고 할 수 있다. 집단지성의 활용은 공개와 공유 그리고 참여의 기본 철학을 갖고 있는 웹 2.0의 주요한 설계원칙으로 자리잡은 후로, 이와 관련된 연구가 다양하게 진행되고 있다. 이 논문은 개인들간의 관계와 상호작용에 대한 인식을 기반으로 집단지성을 밝혀보려는 방법론을 제안한다. 응용대상은 정보검색과 분류 분야이며, 개인지성의 표현과 도출을 위해 개인 컨스트럭트 이론과 지식 그리드 기법에 퍼지관계이론을 적용한다. 개인의 개별적인 지성은 헤세 다이어그램의 형태로 구현된 지성 구조로 표현하여 내재된 지식적인 의미를 분석한다. 논문의 목적인 집단지성의 도출은 개인지성들의 비교를 통해 상호간 공유와 일치를 찾아낼 수 있는 유사성 이론의 도입에 의해 이루어진다. 제안하는 방법론은 퍼지관계 이론 및 퍼지 매칭 알고리즘을 기반으로 실험 데이터로부터 유사성을 측정하고, 개인지성들을 대표할 수 있는 최적의 집단지성을 이끌어내고자 한다.

The collective intelligence is a common-based production by the collaboration and competition of many peer individuals. In other words, it is the aggregation of individual intelligence to lead the wisdom of crowd. Recently, the utilization of the collective intelligence has become one of the emerging research areas, since it has been adopted as an important principle of web 2.0 to aim openness, sharing and participation. This paper introduces an approach to seek the collective intelligence by cognition of the relation and interaction among individual participants. It describes a methodology well-suited to evaluate individual intelligence in information retrieval and classification as an application field. The research investigates how to derive and represent such cognitive intelligence from individuals through the application of fuzzy relational theory to personal construct theory and knowledge grid technique. Crucial to this research is to implement formally and process interpretatively the cognitive knowledge of participants who makes the mutual relation and social interaction. What is needed is a technique to analyze cognitive intelligence structure in the form of Hasse diagram, which is an instantiation of this perceptive intelligence of human beings. The search for the collective intelligence requires a theory of similarity to deal with underlying problems; clustering of social subgroups of individuals through identification of individual intelligence and commonality among intelligence and then elicitation of collective intelligence to aggregate the congruence or sharing of all the participants of the entire group. Unlike standard approaches to similarity based on statistical techniques, the method presented employs a theory of fuzzy relational products with the related computational procedures to cover issues of similarity and dissimilarity.
