Abstract

The Artificial neural networks are key mechanisms in artificial intelligence, especially in machine learning. A close examination of this mechanism reveals some philosophical challenges in the current approach. With all the emphasis on the techniques used in the mining of the great volume of datasets collected and available, inductive reasoning is well employed to find out characteristics and identify patterns. However, deductive reasoning is not sufficiently utilized. In order to bring the current approach to the right track, this paper proposes a novel approach in which a deductive apparatus is made use of. This deductive apparatus is built on contextual binding, which sets a priority and provides guidance for the processing of various types of datasets collected and available, thus making the processing efficient and effective. The benefits and implementation of this new approach are also discussed.
