Mainly as a primer ontology / knowledge representation data set for an AGI to work with. Having a number of facts known without having to be typed in about many frames and connections between frames gives an AGI a good booster to start with.
Taken a simple set of common words in a house chair, table, sock, closet etc, a house agi bot could get a feel for objects it would expect to find in a house, and what locations to look for say a sock, and properties of a sock, without having to have that information typed in from a human user. Then that information would be updated thru experience, and with a human trainer working with an embodied (probably virtual) agi. The novels gave a really good data set that reinforced the factoids extracted and was a bit more world-knowledge common sense than other extraction projects using Wall Street Journal, or a subset of the web as hole, and removed much of the junk data.

Finding patterns is fine, and somewhat inevitable, but what are those ontologies good for, and why? -- Vladimir Nesov mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?&; _______________________________________ James Ratcliff - http://falazar.com Looking for something... --------------------------------- Looking for last minute shopping deals?
