Artificial Intelligence

The KR&R is a group of the Madeira University (UMa) that investigates foundation and implementations of different areas of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning.

At the heart of artificial intelligence and cognitive systems is the field of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR&R). It serves as a fundamental pillar to capture, organize and use knowledge in intelligent systems. Our goal is to give you a comprehensive understanding of KR&R and its importance in various domains.

In today’s world, where vast amounts of data are generated every second, the ability to extract meaningful insights from this data is crucial. Knowledge Representation and Reasoning provide the necessary tools and techniques to handle this information overload and transform it into valuable knowledge.

The benefits of KR&R are enormous. It enables intelligent systems to understand natural language, perform automated reasoning, make recommendations, and even mimic human-like decision-making processes. It has applications in various domains, such as healthcare, finance, robotics, natural language processing, and expert systems.
