Because an earlier direct posting to the comp.ai.nlang-know-rep group did
not appear and within the comp.ai.shells group hardly any useful reply was
received I would like to post within this group the next three questions:
First:
Are there people who have developed a network (or
frame-based) Reasoning System, preferably programmed in Prolog
(and preferebly NU- or MU-Prolog), for the development of
a Natural Language Text Understanding System? And are they
willing to share or sell the program? Or does anyone know
addresses of people/companies that sell this kind of
programs for the mentioned purpose?
I already know of BACK, FLEX and RHET.
Second:
Of the network based system KNET (Prolog based; Freeman, Hirschman
et.al.), Krypron or NILK (Brachman, Moser) I don't have an address.
Can someone provide more information?
Third:
Are there people who have some experience with KEE for the
development of a Natural Language Text Understanding System?
I am interested in possible problems concerning e.g. the
representation of the 'world knowledge'. References to
articles are of course welcome too.
Thanks in advance,
Geert J Postma
