Abstract

A cognitive information processing system comprising: a processor; a data bus coupled to the processor; and a non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium embodying computer program code, the non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium being coupled to the data bus, the computer program code interacting with a plurality of computer operations and comprising instructions executable by the processor and configured for: receiving data from a plurality of data sources; processing the data from the plurality of data sources to perform a cognitive learning operation, the processing being performed via a cognitive inference and learning system, the cognitive learning operation implementing a cognitive learning technique according to a cognitive learning framework, the cognitive learning operation applying the cognitive learning technique to generate a cognitive learning result; and, updating a destination based upon the learning result.

Claims

1. A cognitive information processing system comprising:

a processor;

a data bus coupled to the processor; and

a non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium embodying computer program code, the non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium being coupled to the data bus, the computer program code interacting with a plurality of computer operations and comprising instructions executable by the processor and configured for;

receiving data from a plurality of data sources;

processing the data from the plurality of data sources to perform a cognitive learning operation, the processing being performed via a cognitive inference and learning system, the cognitive learning operation implementing a cognitive learning technique according to a cognitive learning framework, the cognitive learning operation applying the cognitive learning technique to generate a cognitive learning result; and

,

updating a destination based upon the cognitive learning result.

2. The cognitive information processing system of claim 1, wherein:

the cognitive learning framework comprises a plurality of cognitive learning styles and a plurality of cognitive learning categories, each of the plurality of cognitive learning styles comprising a generalized learning approach implemented by the cognitive inference and learning system to perform the cognitive learning operation, each of the plurality of cognitive learning categories comprising a source of information used by the cognitive inference and learning system to perform the cognitive learning operation.

3. The cognitive information processing system of claim 2, wherein:

the plurality of cognitive learning styles comprise at least one of a declared cognitive learning style, an observed cognitive learning style and an inferred cognitive learning style; and

,

the plurality of cognitive learning categories comprise at least one of a data-based cognitive learning category and an interaction-based cognitive learning category.

4. The cognitive information processing system of claim 2, wherein:

the cognitive learning technique comprises use of at least one of the plurality of cognitive learning styles in combination with at last one of the plurality of cognitive learning categories.

5. The cognitive information processing system of claim 4, wherein:

the cognitive learning technique comprises at least one of a direct correlation cognitive learning technique, a patterns and concepts cognitive learning technique and a concept entailment cognitive learning technique.

6. The cognitive information processing system of claim 4, wherein:

the cognitive learning technique comprises at least one of an explicit likes/dislikes cognitive learning technique, a behavior cognitive learning technique and a contextual recommendation cognitive learning technique.

7. A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium embodying computer program code, the computer program code comprising computer executable instructions configured for:

receiving data from a plurality of data sources;

processing the data from the plurality of data sources to perform a cognitive learning operation, the processing being performed via a cognitive inference and learning system, the cognitive learning operation implementing a cognitive learning technique according to a cognitive learning framework, the cognitive learning operation applying the cognitive learning technique to generate a cognitive learning result; and

,

updating a destination based upon the learning result.

8. The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 13, wherein

the cognitive learning framework comprises a plurality of cognitive learning styles and a plurality of cognitive learning categories, each of the plurality of cognitive learning styles comprising a generalized learning approach implemented by the cognitive inference and learning system to perform the cognitive learning operation, each of the plurality of cognitive learning categories comprising a source of information used by the cognitive inference and learning system to perform the cognitive learning operation.

9. The non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium of claim 8, wherein:
