Abstract

A cognitive learning method comprising: 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.

First claim

1 . A cognitive learning method comprising:
receiving data from a data source; processing the data from the data source 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 framework comprising 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 referring to a source of information used by the cognitive inference and learning system when performing the cognitive learning operation, the cognitive learning operation applying the cognitive learning technique to generate a cognitive learning result the cognitive inference and learning system comprising a cognitive platform, the cognitive platform comprising
a cognitive engine, the cognitive engine comprising a dataset engine, a graph query engine and an insight/learning engine,
a sourcing agent, the sourcing agent sourcing the data from the data source, and,
a destination agent, the destination agent publishing the cognitive learning result to a consumer of cognitive insight data; and,
updating a knowledge model using the cognitive learning result, the updating being performed via the cognitive platform of the cognitive inference and learning system updating a destination based upon the cognitive learning result.

2 . The cognitive learning method of claim 1 , wherein:
an individual cognitive learning technique is associated with a primary cognitive learning style and is bounded by an associated primary cognitive learning category.

3 . The cognitive learning method of claim 1 , 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 learning method 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 least one of the plurality of cognitive learning categories.

5 . The cognitive learning method 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 learning method 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 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 data source;
processing the data from the data source 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 framework comprising 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 referring to a source of information used by the cognitive inference and learning system when performing the cognitive learning operation, the cognitive learning operation applying the cognitive learning technique to generate a cognitive learning result, the cognitive inference and learning system comprising a cognitive platform, the cognitive platform comprising
a cognitive engine, the cognitive engine comprising a dataset engine, a graph query engine and an insight/learning engine,
a sourcing agent, the sourcing agent sourcing the data from the data source, and,
a destination agent, the destination agent publishing the cognitive learning result to a consumer of cognitive insight data; and,

updating a knowledge model using the cognitive learning result, the updating being performed via the cognitive platform of the cognitive inference and learning system.

8 . The cognitive information processing system of claim 7 , wherein:
an individual cognitive learning technique is associated with a primary cognitive learning style and is bounded by an associated primary cognitive learning category.

9 . The cognitive information processing system of claim 7 , 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.

10 . The cognitive information processing system of claim 8 , wherein:
the cognitive learning technique comprises use of at least one of the plurality of cognitive learning styles in combination with at least one of the plurality of cognitive learning categories.

11 . The cognitive information processing system of claim 10 , 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.

12 . The cognitive information processing system of claim 10 , 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.

13 . 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 data source; processing the data from the data source 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 framework comprising 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 referring to a source of information used by the cognitive inference and learning system when performing the cognitive learning operation
