L. & Tenenbaum, J. B. (2004) Discovering latent classes in relational data. AI Memo 2004-019 - see Part 4 on blocking Alyawarra kin terms ckemp at andrew.cmu.edu Doug ... Just found out about another artificial Intelligence paper that uses the Alyawarra kinship data in ways directly related to the work by Charles Kemp et al at MIT a few years ago. Just copied it but haven't had time to read it yet. Thought you might like to take a look ... (2007) Statistical Predicate Invention (SPI) Stanley Kok + Pedro Domingos WWD. They test SPI using a ten-fold cross-validation on four data sets, one of which is our 142 person Alyawarra kinship data and "then introduced MRC, an approach to SPI based on second-order Markov logic. MRC forms multiple relational clusterings of the symbols in the data and iteratively refines them." The best performance is for the kinship data.
