Introduction

The rapid development of artificial intelligence technology has significantly advanced machines' capabilities in understanding and processing natural language. However, enabling machines to extract meaningful concepts from vast semantic information and achieve deep communication with humans remains a substantial challenge. Current artificial intelligence systems, especially large language models (LLMs), primarily operate within semantic spaces. They rely on statistical and pattern recognition to process massive amounts of data but exhibit limitations in understanding and generating specific concepts.

The DIKWP model—comprising Data (D), Information (I), Knowledge (K), Wisdom (W), and Purpose (P)—offers a novel framework aimed at transforming semantic space into concept space. The inaugural DIKWP Cup World Artificial Consciousness Design Competition's "Language and Cognition" track centers on this theme, encouraging participants to explore how to utilize the DIKWP model to achieve semantic mapping of natural language concepts, thereby promoting a bidirectional "understanding" construction between humans and machines.

I. Fundamental Distinctions Between Semantic Space and Concept Space1.1 Definition and Characteristics of Semantic Space

Semantic space is a high-dimensional vector space constructed by statistically analyzing vast amounts of textual data to establish associations and similarities between words. In this space, words with similar meanings are positioned closer together.

Case 1: Semantic Space in Word Embedding Models

In word embedding technologies like Word2Vec, models learn vector representations of words by analyzing large textual datasets. For example, "king" and "queen" have close vector distances in semantic space, while their distance from "apple" is much greater. This semantic space captures relationships between words but doesn't deeply understand the concrete meanings of concepts.

Characteristics:

  • Based on Statistical Associations: Lacks deep understanding of concepts.

  • Incapable of Autonomous Concept Generation or Explanation: Relies on patterns in data.

  • Sensitive to Context: Prone to data bias influences.

1.2 Definition and Characteristics of Concept Space

Concept space involves abstracting and symbolizing words and symbols to form a conceptual system with clear definitions and connotations. Elements in concept space include not only semantic information but also logical relationships, attributes, and rules.

Case 2: Concept Space in the Medical Field

In medical knowledge bases, "diabetes" as a concept includes its definition, causes, symptoms, diagnostic criteria, and treatment methods. Doctors rely on these clear concepts for diagnosis and treatment.

Characteristics:

  • Explicit Definitions and Attributes: Concepts are clearly defined.

  • Logical Structure and Hierarchical Relationships: Supports reasoning and decision-making.

  • Applicability to Specific Scenarios: Concepts can be directly understood and manipulated by humans.

1.3 Differences and Connections Between Semantic Space and Concept Space

  • Differences:

    • Semantic Space: Focuses on associations between words, lacking deep conceptual understanding.

    • Concept Space: Emphasizes clear definitions and logical relationships, offering interpretability and applicability.

  • Connections:

    • Foundational Data: Semantic space provides foundational data for constructing concept space.

    • Enrichment and Expansion: Concept space can utilize information from semantic space to enhance its content.

II. Structure and Function of the DIKWP Model2.1 The Five Elements of the DIKWP Model

1. Data (D)

Case 3: User Data on Social Media

On social media platforms, users' likes, comments, and shares are collected. These are raw, unprocessed data reflecting basic user behavior.

Function:

  • Recognition of "Sameness": Categorizes similar data.

  • Foundation for Information Extraction and Knowledge Construction.

2. Information (I)

Case 4: Extracting User Behavior Patterns

By analyzing user data, patterns such as increased discussion on specific topics during a certain period are discovered. These patterns are information extracted from data.

Function:

  • Analysis of "Difference": Extracts meaningful patterns and relationships from data.

  • Provides Material for Knowledge Formation.

3. Knowledge (K)

Case 5: Formulating Marketing Strategies

Based on user behavior information, a company summarizes trends in user preferences to develop targeted marketing strategies—an application of knowledge.

Function:

  • Systematizes Information: Forms applicable knowledge.

  • Supports Decision-Making and Action.

4. Wisdom (W)

Case 6: Real-Time Adjustment of Marketing Plans

Based on market feedback, a company promptly adjusts its marketing strategy to avoid risks and seize opportunities. This requires deep understanding and flexible application of knowledge, reflecting wisdom.

Function:

  • Deep Understanding and Innovative Application of Knowledge.

  • Makes Wise Decisions Aligned with Long-Term Interests.

5. Purpose (P)

Case 7: Enhancing Brand Influence

The ultimate goal of a company is to enhance brand influence and market share. This purpose drives the entire DIKWP process.

Function:

  • Clarifies Objectives: Guides the direction of data collection and information processing.

  • Determines Goals and Methods of Wisdom Application.

2.2 Operational Mechanism of the DIKWP Model

  • Polysemy and Ambiguity: Words may have different meanings in different contexts.

    Case 8: Polysemy of the Word "Bank"

    • In finance, "bank" refers to a financial institution.

    • In geography, "bank" can mean the side of a river.

  • Context Dependency: Understanding concepts requires specific situations.

    Case 9: Meaning of the Word "Cold"

    • In weather descriptions, "cold" refers to low temperature.

    • In describing attitudes, "cold" may mean indifferent or unfriendly.

3.2 Application of the DIKWP Model in Concept Generation

  1. Data Collection and Recognition of Sameness (D)

    Case 10: Collecting Corpora Related to "Intelligence"

    Recognition of Sameness:

    • Categorize all sentences containing "intelligence" to form an initial dataset.

    • Collect various textual data containing the word "intelligence," such as technological articles and educational materials.

  2. Information Extraction and Analysis of Difference (I)

    Case 11: Analyzing Meanings of "Intelligence" in Different Contexts

    Analysis of Difference:

    • Compare uses of "intelligence" in different fields to extract its various meanings and usages.
