When an Atom is used by a cognitive process its STI gets boosted ("stimulated"), along with (to a much lesser degree) its LTI value The ECAN module has an importance-spreading agent that spreads STI and LTI values around along the links in the Atomspace That's what's happening now; fancier

Hi, Thank you for the example. Perhaps i can ask a follow up question: How are the STI values set (how do we know what is relevant for now), at what time and which processes in open cog are responsible for them. I assume that STI values are set for whole groups of atoms. When and for what

This is straightforward: Strength is a measure of likelihood — it can be thought of as a probability, while confidence is a measure of how confident one is in the strength value. Confidence is related to the value of count. The more pieces of evidence upon which the strength is determined, the

When you use MOSES for supervised classification, it's doing something similar to a supervised learning algorithm... the advantage of MOSES in that case is mostly that it tends to come up with classification rules that are both accurate and concise (if the parameters are tuned well), whereas e.g.

Vishnu, I don't know if the NLP pipeline is mature enough to process that... After you've parsed the sentence you may check whether it has produced knowledge that is similar to the criminal example https://github.com/opencog/atomspace/blob/master/tests/rule-engine/criminal.scm I don't think
