[opencog-dev] how to best think of the 'confidence' in simple truth value

Hi All, What would be the most intuitive (and generally applicable) way of thinking about 'confidence' in the simple-truth-value system? I know stv consists of a 'strength' and a 'confidence' part. The strength, if I remember correctly is representative of the probability of that statement

[opencog-dev] questions around the eva-chatbot, and current state of the opencog-nlp pipeline

Hi, Just wanted to ask what the state of the opencog<->nlp pipeline as it stands... and what was the most current demonstrable (sub)system around it? I'm preparing to get some hands-on interaction with the docker/indigo/eva-opencog

[opencog-dev] using guile's load "some_file.scm" doesn't seem to produce the same results as if inputing on guile prompt

Hi All, Trying to get started by working out (and understanding) some of the examples on opencog/atomspace/examples/guile . I should have got started on it months ago, but I guess everything on its due time... As I try to

[opencog-dev] Some basic questions about code in 'knowledge.scm' and 'imperative.scm' files

Hi All, Had a look through the 'knowledge.scm' and 'imperative.scm' files. Also, learning scheme syntax on the fly here... Have a couple of some fundamental questions which I believe would aide my understanding: 1. 'Knowledge.scm'

[opencog-dev] Re: [opencog/opencog] General cleanup of the embodiment doc. (#2488)

Hi All, Trying to read through the knowledge.scm file that is supposed to, in some ways, embody the internal-model for chatbot-eva. Naturally, I have some very basic questions. It'd be nice to understand what exactly the following nodes do or represent: - DefinedSchema, - Inheritance vs.

[opencog-dev] question about a concept from the PLN book on Ben's site..

Hi All, Reading through the book on 'Probabilistic Logic Networks' which is posted on http://goertzel.org/PLN_BOOK_6_27_08.pdf. I think I'm making okay progress on the concepts on this book so far so good. There's just this one little area which has me completely stumped: Chapter 3, Page 45:

Thanks for the explanation. That helps quite a bit, and also resonate with some other pieces of information I've gathered. On Saturday, October 29, 2016 at 2:23:55 PM UTC-4, Apil Tamang wrote: > > This page begins with the following statements: > > Using C++ for opencog

[opencog-dev] some more analysis of some fundamental concepts

This page begins with the following statements: Using C++ for opencog is possible, but not generally recommended. This is because the whole point of OpenCog is to represent knowledge in terms of hypergraphs in the atomspace, and to manipulate and grow that knowledge using deduction, PLN,

[opencog-dev] Re: docker opencog build fails with "ccache: FATAL: x_realloc: Could not allocate 17179869184 bytes"

All, I repeated the build once again, and did not encounter this problem. I was able to successfully build all of opencog and also telnet to the cogserver. So, looks like the docker images are good-to-go. On Friday, October 28, 2016 at 8:33:52 AM UTC-4, Apil Tamang wrote: > > Hey all, I f

[opencog-dev] Re: Hong Cogathon Dec 2016

Hey Ben, I would appreciate it if more dedicated efforts were made to enable remote participation on these seminars. For example - some high-quality live-video feed (some from the previous meeting are quite sad :( ) - posting slides from the seminars - remote pair-wise programming sessions .. ?

[opencog-dev] Getting started on some minor bugs on OpenCog. Preferably NLP Tasks

Hey All, I've been reading about the OpenCog architecture for a while, and mainly from Ben's volumes (I & II) on the system. It is very interesting, and although I'm far from having digested it all completely, I guess this is a good time as any to actually get started hands-on. My interests are
