exempelbaserad

Exempelbaserad is a Swedish term that translates to "example-based" in English. It describes an approach or method that relies on the use of specific examples to illustrate, explain, or learn a concept. This methodology is prevalent in various fields, including education, artificial intelligence, and problem-solving.

In education, example-based learning involves presenting students with concrete instances of a phenomenon or principle before or alongside abstract definitions. This helps learners connect theoretical knowledge to practical applications, making the subject matter more accessible and understandable. Teachers might use examples to demonstrate mathematical theorems, literary devices, or scientific processes.

Within artificial intelligence, example-based reasoning (EBR) is a subfield of case-based reasoning. It focuses on solving new problems by retrieving and adapting solutions from similar past problems, which are stored as examples or cases. This approach is particularly useful in domains where rules are difficult to define explicitly.

The example-based approach is characterized by its inductive nature, moving from specific observations to broader generalizations. It emphasizes practical demonstration and experiential understanding over purely theoretical exposition. The effectiveness of an example-based method often depends on the quality, relevance, and variety of the examples provided.
