Previous: Data Descriptors by Example
- Blank slate problem: Given a collection of documents, construct a single descriptor,
using only tags that occur in the given documents, under which the given documents are
valid.
- 1.
- Construct multiple descriptors, each covering a subset of the documents. Subsets
may intersect.
- 2.
- Discover / add structure to the descriptors, i.e. invent new element types.
- Update problem: Given a collection of documents and a descriptor, modify the
descriptor to accomodate the addition or deletion of examples.
