Oops, please note that I was referring to the "Conceptual Indexing"
project listed on that page.
Randall,
OK, well let's carry on from there.
Are you familiar with this project?
http://www.research.sun.com/knowledge/papers.html
Something similar in xTalk would be pretty darn cool, I would think.
Especially if it were to index and search the web =).
See, we can have a fruitful discussion if we just stick to the
subject.
Most words in a natural language are synonyms to other words (with
subtle variation of context or meaning). When words are grouped
with their synonym cousins, a dimensionallity frequently appears
that defines a range of general to specific. Sprint is a specific
form of run which is a specific form of locomotion which is a
specific form of motion which is more specific than the most
general word in this chain, move. Having access to an anthology
that associates words into these overlapping chains of specificity
is a fantastically rich resource for the automated derivation of
meaning (semantic processing). Creating such a beast, at the user
level is prohibitive to all but the most driven (insane) amongst
us. Doing it once at the tool level so that all can profit... That
is a reasonable goal.
