Not sure if this is what you are asking but ?Cmaybe you could use NCM’s
(Neutrospohic Cognitive Maps) with a neutrosphic adjacency matrix? That
might eliminate discrete “jumps”….

I found that the passage from logic to algebra is actually pretty easy.  The
key step being the unification step:

    h x = f

where h is the head of the rule, f is a fact, x is a set of substitutions to
be solved for.  This can be represented in a vector space.

 

The problem is that my formulas exist in a discrete space.  Consider 2
formulas:

A.  "JFK was assassinated by a lone gunner"

B.  "JFK was killed by CIA conspiracy"

There is no way to move continuously from A to B, unless we allow discrete
"jumps".

 

One of Ben's ideas is to assign probability distributions over all possible
formulas.  That way, the distributions over A and B vary smoothly, they form
a manifold whose distance metric is given by the K-L divergence between 2
probability distributions.
