=========================================================================== Topic: (/) Summary: This is the top level directory of the disc. Description: This directory contains three annotation files and several directories: / 0.all concatenation of the release's 0.doc files 0.ask abbreviated version of 0.all 0.doc top-level documentation (this file) a2z administrative sub-directory sub-directory for ... The a2z directory contains administrative files which should be inspected before any attempt is made to use the disc. In addition, the book should be read for hints on using the disc. a2z is laid out as follows: a2z/ 0.doc documentation file for directory a2z bin scripts for using the disc doc assorted reference text files lists lists of packages, etc. origins information on package origins We do not supply a browser, because we don't yet know how to do one in a convenient and portable fashion. For the present, we suggest that you use your favorite text editor on the 0.all or 0.ask file. The remaining directories are the tops of topical directory trees. These are (typically) structured as follows: a/ 0.doc documentation file for topic a aa/ 0.doc documentation file for topic aa aaa/ 0.doc documentation file for package aaa 0.iso ISO-9660 file name correspondence table 0.lst summary listing file for package aaa aaa.lzv verbose listing of aaa.zip aaa.zip Info-zipped archive ab/ ... There are some definite flaws with the current hierarchy, principally stemming from limitations in the ISO-9660 file system and differences between CD-ROM and FTP archive structuring priorities.

Feel free to adapt them to your own needs, if they do not currently do what you wish. Let us know about any bugs or other opportunities for improvement: ptf-bugs@cfcl.com Much of the complexity in these scripts results from the fact that there are four distinct decisions a UNIX vendor can make in presenting ISO-9660 file names to the user. The decisions are whether or not to: hide version numbers map alphabetic characters to lower case hide trailing periods when no extension exists A given ISO-9660 file (e.g., "FOO.;1") may thus be displayed by your UNIX system in any of eight possible ways: foo foo. foo;1 foo.;1 FOO FOO. FOO;1 FOO.;1 Because ISO-9660 files have no permission bits, vendors also get to chose among some 4096 (2^12) possible mode combinations. Worse, some vendors do not allow direct execution of scripts, even when the mode allows it. We have therefore decided to assume mode 444 (r--r--r--). We have attempted to make our scripts work in all cases. We try to handle all case, mode, and version number variations. By ensuring that all our file names have extensions, we eliminate the trailing period problem. We may have failed in some respect, however, or your vendor may have created yet another case. If so, please let us know (ptf-bugs@cfcl.com).

The thesis examines the problem of action selection when dealing with realistic, animal-like situations: how to choose, at each moment in time, the most appropriate out of a repertoire of possible actions. It includes a description is given of a simulated environment which is an extensive and detailed simulation of the problem of action selection for animals. This simulated environment is used to investigate the adequacy of several theories of action selection (from both ethology and artificial intelligence) such as the drive model, Lorenz's psycho-hydraulic model and Maes' spreading activation network, and outlines deficiencies in each mechanism. Finally, it proposes a new approach to action selection is developed which determines the most appropriate action in a principled way, and which does not suffer from the inherent shortcomings found in other methods. The thesis includes a review and bibliography of existing work on action selection. The action selection problem modeled by the simulated environment comprises 15 different `sub-problems' (getting food, reproducing, not getting lost, being vigilant for predators, etc.), many internal and external stimuli, and 35 different low-level actions to select between.

This can be seen as a form of agent modeling tool, which allows for the generation of arbitrarily deep nested belief spaces based on the system's own beliefs, and on beliefs that are typically held by groups of agents. The theory of belief ascription upon which ViewGen is based is described in detail in Ballim and Wilks, and a general framework for attributing and maintaining nested propositional attitudes is described in Afzal Ballim's dissertation. See the readme.txt file for an abstract. Requires: Ports: ViewGen is implemented in Sicstus prolog, and hence easily convertible to any Edinburgh-style prolog.

Instead, it concentrates on a small set of primitive agent-agent and agent-environment interactions. The goal of Echo is to study how simple interactions among simple agents lead to emergent high-level complex phenomena such as the flow of resources in a system or cooperation and competition in networks of agents (e.g., communities, trading networks, or arms races).

Most current GENESIS applications involve realistic simulations of biological neural systems. Although the software can also model more abstract networks, other simulators are more suitable for backpropagation and similar connectionist modeling. XODUS is a graphical front end for GENESIS. The distribution includes full source code and documentation for both GENESIS and XODUS as well as fourteen demonstration and tutorial simulations. Documentation for these simulations is included, along with three papers that describe the general organization of the simulator. Also included is a set of "Rallpacks" benchmarks for speed and accuracy of the simulation. The three sets of benchmarks model a linear passive cable with many compartments, a highly branched cable, and a linear axon containing Hodgkin-Huxley channels. The simulator results may be compared to the exact analytic solutions (for the first two cases) and to the results given by GENESIS and by NEURON, another popular neural simulator. (The results for these two simulators show nearly identical speed and accuracy.) The GENESIS Users Group, BABEL, provides some informal support to GENESIS users. BABEL members have access to an email list, a repository of contributions by GENESIS users and developers, new simulations, libraries of cells and channels, additional simulator components, new documentation and tutorials, and bug reports and fixes. Membership requires a one-time $200 registration fee made payable to the California Institute of Technology and sent to Jim Bower, Computational Neural Systems Program, 216-76, Caltech, Pasadena, CA, 91125. Please provide name, institution, mailing address, phone number, an email address for the mailing list, and an account name for use on the BABEL computer. Requires: C X-windows (versions X11R3, X11R4, and X11R5) UNIX (Sun version 4.0 and up, DEC Ultrix 3.1, 4.0 and up) Ports: The current version of GENESIS has also been used with Silicon Graphics (Irix 4.0.1 and up) and the HP 700 series (HPUX).

Cellular Automata, of which Life is an example, were suggested by Stanislaw Ulam in the 1940s, and first formalized by von Neumann. Conway's "Game of Life" was popularized in Martin Gardner's mathematical games column in the October 1970 and February 1971 issues of Scientific American. (Shorter notes on life are also given in the column in each month from October 1970 to April 1971, and well as November 1971, January 1972, and December 1972.) There's also quite a bit on the game in "The Recursive Universe", by William Poundstone, Oxford University Press, 1987, 252 pages. The rules for the game of life are quite simple. The game board is a rectangular cell array, with each cell either empty or filled. At each tick of the clock, we generate the next generation by the following rules: if a cell is empty, fill it if 3 of its neighbors are filled (otherwise leave it empty) if a cell is filled, it dies of loneliness if it has 1 or fewer neighbors continues to live if it has 2 or 3 neighbors dies of overcrowding if it has more than 3 neighbors Neighbors include the cells on the diagonals. Some implementations use a torus-based array (edges joined top-to-bottom and left-to-right) for computing neighbors. For example, a row of 3 filled cells will become a column of 3 filled cells in the next generation. The R pentomino is an interesting pattern: xx xx x Try it with other patterns of 5 cells initially occupied. If you record the ages of cells, and map the ages to colors, you can get a variety of beautiful images. When implementing Life, be sure to maintain separate arrays for the old and new generation. Updating the array in place will not work correctly. Another optimization to to maintain a list of the cells that changed. Conway has demonstrated that it is possible to construct the basic building blocks of a computer from Life using modified glider guns. See the last chapter of Elwyn R. Berlekamp, John H. Conway, and Richard K. Guy, "Winning Ways", Academic Press, New York, 1982, ISBN 0-120911-507. for details.

Organisms are computer software loops that live in a shared memory space and self-reproduce. The organisms mutate and evolve, behaving in accordance with the principles of Darwinian evolution. Since the memory space is shared, multiple organisms can execute the same program or program fragments, and can overwrite each other in part or in whole.

Tierra consists of a virtual computer and its operating system, whose architecture has been designed in such a way that the executable machine codes are evolvable. This means that the machine code can be mutated (by flipping bits at random) or recombined (by swapping segments of code between algorithms), and the resulting code remains functional enough of the time for natural (or presumably artificial) selection to be able to improve the code over time. This system results in the production of synthetic organisms based on a computer metaphor of organic life in which CPU time is the ``energy'' resource and memory is the ``material'' resource. Memory is organized into informational patterns that exploit CPU time for self-replication. Mutation generates new forms, and evolution proceeds by natural selection as different genotypes compete for CPU time and memory space. Diverse ecological communities have emerged.

ASA is developed to statistically find the best global fit of a nonlinear non-convex cost-function over a D-dimensional space. This algorithm permits an annealing schedule for 'temperature' T decreasing exponentially in annealing-time k, T = T_0 exp(-c k^1/D). The introduction of re-annealing also permits adaptation to changing sensitivities in the multi-dimensional parameter-space. This annealing schedule is faster than fast Cauchy annealing, where T = T_0/k, and much faster than Boltzmann annealing, where T = T_0/ln k.

It is aimed at those involved in AI courses (teaching or learning) at university level or equivalent. The system has enough built-in functionality to enable its users to get practical experience with a broad range of AI problems without having to build all the supporting tools from scratch. It is implemented in Common Lisp and uses CLOS and Allegro Common Windows (i.e., in Allegro CL 4.1). PAIL is designed around a set of modules, each of which includes a fully implemented and documented computational kernel together with a representative set of autonomous demonstrations and running examples. The modules also provide appropriate graphic visualizations for the presentation of key algorithms and concepts. In addition, sufficient documentation is provided to enable the user to retrieve key literature references, understand the architecture and specifics of the implementation, and modify the implementation if desired. PAIL's current modules cover the following topics - Automated Theorem Proving - Natural Language Processing - Rule-Based Inference - Truth Maintenance Systems - Constraint Satisfaction Problems - Learning - Knowledge Acquisition - Genetic Algorithms - Neural Networks Requires: Common Lisp, CLOS, Allegro Common Windows Ports: Origin: pobox.cscs.ch:/pub/ai/ [148.187.10.13] Copying: Copyright (c) 1993 Istituto Dalle Molle (IDSIA), University of Zurich, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne.

The CLIPS inference engine includes truth maintenance, dynamic rule addition, and customizable conflict resolution strategies. CLIPS, including the runtime version, is easily embeddable in other applications. CLIPS includes an object-oriented language called COOL (CLIPS Object-Oriented Language) which is directly integrated with the inference engine. Joseph Giarratano and Gary Riley's book, "Expert Systems Principles and Practice", comes with an MS-DOS CLIPS 6.0 interpreter. Requires: ANSI C Ports: CLIPS runs on many platforms including IBM PC compatibles (including Windows 3.1 and MS-DOS 386 versions), Macintosh, VAX 11/780, Sun 3/260, and HP9000/500. Porting to any system with an ANSI C compiler should be easy.

Version: 2.03 (1-APR-91), 2.50 Description: MIKE (Micro Interpreter for Knowledge Engineering) is a full-featured, free, and portable software environment designed for teaching purposes at the UK's Open University. It includes forward and backward chaining rules with user-definable conflict resolution strategies, and a frame representation language with inheritance and 'demons' (code triggered by frame access or change), plus user-settable inheritance strategies. Automatic 'how' explanations (proof histories) are provided for rule execution, as are user-specified 'why' explanations. Coarse-grained and fine-grained rule tracing facilities are provided, along with a novel 'rule graph' display which concisely shows the history of rule execution. MIKE, which forms the kernel of an Open University course on Knowledge Engineering, is written in a conservative and portable subset of Edinburgh-syntax Prolog, and is distributed as non-copy-protected source code. MIKE version 1 was described in the October/November 1990 issue of BYTE. MIKE v1.50, which was formerly available from a range of ftp servers, has been superseded by two newer versions: MIKEv2.03, a full Prolog source code version, incorporating a RETE algorithm for fast forward chaining, a truth maintenance system, uncertainty handling, and hypothetical worlds, and MIKEv2.50, a turnkey DOS version with menu-driven interface and frame- and rule-browsing tools, fully compatible with MIKEv2.03, but without source code.

Version: Description: This directory contains the original public domain implementation of an OPS5 interpreter written by Charles L. Forgy and ported to Common Lisp by George Wood and Jim Kowalski. Also included is an updated version with several bug fixes and ports by Mark Kantrowitz. Charles Forgy, the inventor of Rete and OPS5, has a company that sells RAL (Rule-extended Algorithmic Language), a high-performance C-based expert systems tool. RAL uses a more efficient match algorithm called Rete II and was designed to permit seamless integration of rules and objects into C programs. RAL is a superset of C. RAL rules can operate directly on the data types used by the C code in your application. RAL "understands" C type declarations, function prototypes, #define constants, and so on. C expressions, statements, macros, function calls, and so on can be embedded directly in the rules. RAL has an open architecture that permits it to be used with any GUI builder, data base library, or other library that can be used with C. No bridges are required. For efficiency, RAL rules are compiled into C code. A special version of the language, called RAL/RT, adds the features that are required for real-time expert systems. RAL and RAL/RT have a multi-windowed, point-and-click development environment called the RAL Workbench. RAL and RAL/RT are available for DOS, MS Windows, OS/2, and UNIX. License fees for development systems are available on request. There are no run-time fees charged for distributing applications developed using RAL. For information about RAL, write Production Systems Technologies, Inc., 5001 Baum Blvd., Pittsburgh, PA 15213, call 412-683-4000, or fax 412-683-6347.

PROTEST is a tool for building prototype expert systems. It accepts a knowledge base written in IF-THEN rules whose conditions and conclusions consist of object/attribute/value triples: rule1: if pain/duration/constant and pain/localisation/accurate and pain/'initiated by'/'gentle touch' and pain/character/'sudden onset' and pain/character/'intense & throbbing' and gingivae/swelling/present and gingivae/erythema/present and miscellaneous/'local lymphadenopathy'/present and pain/'initiated by'/'clenching, biting or chewing' and tooth/mobility/present then diagnosis/group/abscess with certainty(0.9). Conclusions may contain certainty factors. Inference can be either backward chaining or mixed. The former is normal backward chaining, giving a single firm conclusion if one has been deduced or else as a list of possible conclusions in order of their certainties. Mixed mode is a "mixed" inference strategy which first prompts you to enter your initial findings and then tries to deduce one or more of the goals. If a firm conclusion is not reached, it then tries to solve the problem by backward-chaining. After PROTEST has given a conclusion, you can ask to see its chain of reasoning. A sample knowledge base, for dental diagnosis, is included. Requires: Prolog Ports: Runs in Edinburgh compatible Prologs. The terminal-control predicates are terminal-specific.

Version: Description: This directory contains a revised version of Elkan's AAAI-93 paper, "The Paradoxical Success of Fuzzy Logic", and two responses to the paper from members of the fuzzy logic community. One response is by Enrique Ruspini and the other by Didier Dubois and Henri Prade. The following summary of the controversy comes from the Fuzzy Logic FAQ. The presentation of Elkan's AAAI-93 paper Charles Elkan, "The Paradoxical Success of Fuzzy Logic", in Proceedings of the Eleventh National Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 698-703, 1993. has generated much controversy. The fuzzy logic community claims that the paper is based on some common misunderstandings about fuzzy logic, but Elkan still maintains the correctness of his proof. (See, for instance, AI Magazine 15(1):6-8, Spring 1994.) Elkan proves that for a particular set of axiomatizations of fuzzy logic, fuzzy logic collapses to two-valued logic. The proof is correct in the sense that the conclusion follows from the premises. The disagreement concerns the relevance of the premises to fuzzy logic. At issue are the logical equivalence axioms. Elkan has shown that if you include any of several plausible equivalences, such as not(A and not B) == (not A and not B) or B with the min, max, and 1- axioms of fuzzy logic, then fuzzy logic reduces to binary logic. The fuzzy logic community states that these logical equivalence axioms are not required in fuzzy logic, and that Elkan's proof requires the excluded middle law, a law that is commonly rejected in fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic researchers must simply take care to avoid using any of these equivalences in their work. It is difficult to do justice to the issues in so short a summary. Do not assume that this summary is the last word on this topic, but instead read Elkan's paper and some of the other correspondence on this topic (some of which has appeared in the comp.ai.fuzzy newsgroup). A final version of Elkan's paper, together with responses from members of the fuzzy logic community, will appear in an issue of IEEE Expert sometime in 1994. A paper by Dubois and Prade will be presented at AAAI-94.

NEFCON-I is able to learn fuzzy sets and fuzzy rules by using a kind of reinforcement learning that is driven by a fuzzy error measure. To do this NEFCON-I communicates with another process, that implements a simulation of a dynamical process. NEFCON-I can optimize the fuzzy sets of the antecedents and the conclusions of a given rule base, and it can also create a rulebase from scratch.

They are used in defining fuzzy variables. Common manipulations of fuzzy variables are performed by the "degree" and "membership" classes. Arbitrary nonlinear membership functions, as well as membership functions based on triangular piewise membership are supported. The classes attempt to follow the FAM-style structures found in Bart Kosko's Neural Networks and Fuzzy Systems book. Early work on 3D fam surfaces is shown. It compiles but hasn't been tested.

The pendulum is controlled by a fuzzy logic knowledge base. This is *not* the classical inverted pendulum which uses the sliding "cart"; instead, this system just has a motor connected to the pendulum. It's only intended as a simple example of a fuzzy control system. It's not trying to prove anything. The fuzzy logic knowledge base was developed with the Togai InfraLogic Fuzzy-C Development System.

The kernel of xfuzzy consists of the software implementation of a fuzzy inference engine. The modules defining the behavior of the controller (Fuzzifier, Rules Set, and Defuzzifier) and the system being controlled (model) interact with this inference engine. The environment is completed with a user interface which, through a group of menus, eases the tasks of editing the membership functions, rules, and the system model, as well as the graphic presentation of the simulation results. The closing of the feedback loop of the complete system (controller + system under control) is accomplished by means of a program in C, provided by the user according to the directions contained in a template file supplied by the environment. This module is dynamically linked to the inference engine, allowing the user to perform the whole tuning of the controller without exiting the environment.

Baker's SUS selection algorithm is employed, n-point crossover is maintained at 60%, and mutation is very low. Selection is based on proportional fitness. This GA uses generations. It is also important to note that this GA maximizes. A note on crossover is in order. This version of GAC allows for n-point crossover, where n is less than the length of an individual (although there is no check for that). It is also possible to run uniform crossover (see discussion below). GAC will display run-time information as it executes. GAC also has the ability to output this information into files. These statistics include best behavior, online/ offline measurements, convergence, and the number of reevaluations per generation. At this time the code is commented out. The user can simply remove a few comment symbols to use this facility. See run.c and geval.c for details. There is no ranking, adaptive operators, etc. We intend to explore these issues in future work. Requires: C Ports: Origin: Copying: Property of the Department of the Navy.

Genetic algorithms are applied to the optimization of the weights in the cascade-correlation learning architecture. In this architecture, the neural network starts out with a layer of output neurons. The output neuron weights are then adjusted to minimize the error in the network. A hidden neuron is then added and its weights adjusted so its output correlates with the error in the network. It is then connected to the output neurons and the weights of the output neuron are once again readjusted. This process of adding neurons continues until a network with an acceptable error is produced. Genetic algorithms are used to find the weights for both the hidden and output neurons. We attempt to use the global optimization characteristics of genetic algorithms to find the global set of weights. However, while simple genetic algorithms can find the area of the weight space where there is a minimum error for the output weights or maximum correlation for the hidden layers, they do not converge to the actual minimum or maximum. We must find a way to supplement the simple genetic algorithm. In our approach, the Genetic aided cascade-correlation, we explore the weight space first by using simple genetic algorithms with non-overlapping populations and binary encoded weights. We then use Quickprop to converge to the minimum or maximum. We have applied our algorithm to the two spiral test with resulting average network sizes of an average of 21.6 hidden nodes.

It consists of a C++ class library for programming genetic algorithms. But from a user point of view, it is a genetic algorithm application generator. The application generator takes a fitness function written in C and surrounds with enough code to produce a complete program. It then compiles it and runs it for you. GAGS includes the following features: - Selection procedures include steady-state, tournament, and roulette-wheel. - Crossover is 2-point. Uniform crossover is also supported in the library, but the apps generator does not know about it. - Mutation is bit-flip, with user-supplied frequency. Other operators, like gene duplication or elimination, and gene transposition, are also included in the library, but not in the apps generator. - Best fitness and individual are printed on STDOUT or to a file. - Most GA parameters are inside a configuration file, so that different operators and frequencies can be tested on a fitness function. Only the fitness function and the output options are fixed, once the program has been generated and compiled. - Fitness evaluation using training files. - Graphics output through gnuplot. The application generator gags.pl is written in perl, so this language must also be installed before using GAGS.

GENESIS is system for function optimization based on genetic search techniques. Since genetic algorithms are task independent optimizers, the user must provide only an "evaluation" function which returns a value when given a particular point in the search space. This version offers several enhancements over previous versions that should make the system much more user friendly. The major improvement is a user-level representation that allows the user to think about the genetic structures as vectors of real numbers, rather than bit strings. This level of representation should make the application of GENESIS to new problems easier than ever. A number of new options have been added, including: a display mode that includes an interactive user interface, the option to maximize or minimize the objective function, the choice of rank-based or proportional selection algorithm, and an option to use a Gray code as a transparent lower level representation.

All problem independent mechanisms have been implemented and can be used regardless of application domain. It allows the fast development of applications. GenET is intended to become a depository of representations and operators and to be used as a tool for comparing different models and strategies. The algorithm provides many models and choices. For example, population models include generational GA, steady-state, (n,m)-EP and (n,n+m)-EP models. Choices include automatic adaptation of operator probabilities and a dynamic ranking mechanism. The two included examples illustrate how to implement problems with heterogeneous and homogeneous structures (with explicit rep/opers) and how to use the existing library (FP).

It is intend to improve performance without changing the behavior of the genetic algorithm. Unlike the punctuated equilibria and local selection models PARAGENESIS doesn't modify the genetic algorithm to be more parallelizable as these modifications can drastically alter the behavior of the algorithm. Instead each member is placed on a separate processor allowing initialization, evaluation and mutation to be completely parallel. The costs of global control and communication in selection and crossover are present but minimized as much as possible. In general PARAGENESIS on an 8k CM-200 seems to run 10-100 times faster than GENESIS on a Sparc 2 and finds equivalent solutions. The solutions are not identical only because the parallel random number generator gives a different stream of numbers. PARAGENESIS includes all the features of serial GENESIS plus some additions. The additions include the ability to collect timing statistics, probabilistic selection(as opposed to Baker's stochastic universal sampling), uniform crossover and local or neighborhood selection. Anyone familiar with the serial implementation of GENESIS and C* should have little problem using PARAGENESIS. Requires: C* Ports: This version runs on the CM-200 (Connection Machine).

Command line arguments control a range of parameters, there are a number of built-in problems for the GA to solve. The current set consists of: - maximize the number of bits set in a chromosome - De Jong's functions DJ1, DJ2, DJ3, DJ5 - binary F6, used by Schaffer et al - a crude 1-d knapsack problem; you specify a target and a set of numbers in an external file, GA tries to find a subset that sums as closely as possible to the target - the `royal road' function(s); a chromosome is regarded as a set of consecutive blocks of size K, and scores K for each block entirely filled with 1s and it's easy to add your own problems (see below). Chromosomes are represented as character arrays, so you are not (quite) stuck with bit-string problem encodings. PGA allows multiple populations, with periodic migration between them, and a range of other options. For example, you can choose the chromosome length independently of the choice of problem.

The following is a short description on the operation of the simple classifier system: The classifier system randomly generates a starting population of classifiers. The program then generates a random signal to the environment (in this case the multiplexer). The multiplexer responds with the environmental message. The program then attempts to match the random signal with the classifiers and those that match are allowed to bid. The strengths of the matching classifiers are deducted by the amount that is to be bid specified by the CBID variable and the effective bids of the classifiers are compared. The classifer with the largest effective bid (the bid modified by EBID) wins and the classifier message is compared with the environmental message. If the messages match, the classifier is given a reward. If the bucket brigade flag is activated, the classifier will post a reward to be given to the last matching classifier. The genetic algorithm is activated at the iteration specified by the variable GAPERIOD. Pairs of classifiers are chosen randomly according to their strengths. Bad performing classifiers are replaced according to their similarities to the new offsprings. Data about the population and its parameters is recorded in REPORT.OUT at periodic intervals.

When run on the nCUBE 2, SGA-Cube can take advantage of the hypercube architecture, and is scalable to any hypercube dimension. The hypercube implementation is modular, so that the algorithm for exploiting parallel processors can be easily modified. In addition to its parallel capabilities, SGA-Cube can be compiled on various serial computers via compile-time options. When compiled on a serial computer, SGA-Cube is essentially identical to SGA-C. SGA-Cube is described in TCGA report No. 91005.

References: ? =========================================================================== Package: areas/kr/systems/colab/ Name: COLAB Summary: Knowledge Representation and Compilation Laboratory Version: Description: This directory contains the COmpilation LABoratory (COLAB). COLAB is a hybrid knowledge representation system emphasizing the horizontal and vertical compilation of knowledge bases. It has been designed as a COmpilation LABoratory aiming at a synergetic collaboration of different knowledge representation and reasoning formalisms. It is comprised of subsystems dealing with different kinds of knowledge and that can also be used as stand-alone systems. The COLAB representation architecture splits into two main parts, an affirmative part, sometimes also called `assertional', and a taxonomic part. The affirmative part provides efficient reasoning with different kinds of relational or functional knowledge using tailored inference engines. For affirmative knowledge represented as constraint nets COLAB supplies constraint propagation techniques (CONTAX). Relational knowledge in the form of Horn rules is processed by forward (FORWARD) and backward (RELFUN) chaining. The backward component is also suited for expressing (non-deterministic) functional dependencies. Taxonomic knowledge is represented by intensional concept definitions which are automatically arranged in a subsumption hierarchy (TAXON). Dynamic cooperation of the subsystems is organized through access primitives providing an interface to the respective reasoning services. COLAB is a piece of research software developed at DFKI and the University of Kaiserslautern. COLAB involves 4 subsystems: + RELFUN is a logic-programming language with call-by-value (eager), non-deterministic, non-ground functions, and higher-order operations [Boley92b]. SHORT DESCRIPTION: Operational (interpreter in pure LISP), procedural (SLV-resolution), fixpoint, and model-theoretic semantics [Boley92c]. Interpreter for full RELFUN; WAM emulator for fixed-arity subset. Layered compiler system, from source-to-source transformers to declarative classifier, to WAM-code generator [Boley90a]. Translator to relational subset of RELFUN, henceforth to PROLOG. Accepting freely interchangeable LISP-style and PROLOG-style syntaxes. Tracer for valued conjunctions; interface to LISP; on-line help. Prelude with useful relations/functions; library of declarative hypergraph operations [Boley92a]; components for mechanical-engineering system using declarative geometry [BoleyHanschke+91b]. Tight (WAM-level) coupling with FORWARD. + TAXON is a terminological knowledge representation system extended by concrete domains [BaaderHanschke91b,Hanschke92b]. SHORT DESCRIPTION: Comprises a T-box and an A-box formalism for representing terminological and assertional knowledge. The T-box provides expressive concept forming operators, in particular for specifying role/attribute interaction. The TAXON A-box can instantiate concepts, roles, etc. All reasoning services (e.g., classification, realization) are implemented by terminating, sound and complete algorithms. A concrete domain of rational numbers with comparison operators is tightly coupled with the abstract terminological formalism. Can compute the domain hierarchy for CONTAX. + CONTAX is a constraint system for weighted constraints over hierarchically structured finite domains. SHORT DESCRIPTION: The CONTAX system supports primitive (extensional), compound (conjunctive), disjunctive and predicative constraints. Constraint instances are connected by variables that range over specific domains which can be plain or hierarchically structured. Hierarchical domains can be defined in CONTAX itself or by using the classifier of TAXON. Intervals regarded as subdomains of integers are also supported. All constraints are given a weight (from a discrete set ranging from 'hard' to 'soft') that is used by CONTAX for relaxation of overspecified problems. Besides being integrated in COLAB, there also exists a stand-alone version of CONTAX with a programmer interface to LISP [MeyerSteinle92] that enables any LISP-based application to use CONTAX as its own constraint-reasoning formalism. The CONTAX system has already been used to formalize the tool selection problem in a CIM application [Meyer92a,Meyer92b]. + FORWARD is a logic programming language with bottom-up and top-down evaluation of Horn clauses [HarmHinkelmann+92]. SHORT DESCRIPTION: User-specifiable division of Horn clauses for bottom-up, top-down and bidirectional reasoning. Semi-naive bottom-up evaluation with top-down provable premises. Generalized Magic-Set transformation for goal-directed bottom-up reasoning, supporting conjunctive queries and considering top-down premises. An interpreter version is available, there is also an abstract machine, which will be available in the near future. Simulation of forward chaining in a backward chaining system by rule transformation. Compilation into a WAM with special forward code area and additional so-called retain stack for derived facts. Upside-down meta-interpreter in RELFUN for forward chaining, partial evaluation of the meta-interpreter. Tight coupling with the RELFUN system on interpreter-level and WAM-level. A tight integration of the semi-naive strategy with the TAXON system is currently under development. Other subsystems used in COLAB include - GAMA (General Abstract Machine Assembler) - NyWAM (WAM emulator in Common Lisp) Requires: Common Lisp (all), CLOS (CONTAX) Ports: RELFUN tested in AKCL, Lucid CL, Allegro CL, and Symbolics CL.

The rule system translates rule definitions into functions which can then be compiled by the native Common Lisp compiler. The frobs-doc.l file is something that someone else did to add documentation strings to FROBS. It is not something that we load automatically, so is separate. Having it be a separate file is fine.

Version: 1.5 (22-APR-91) Description: PARMENIDES (PropagAting, Rulekit-Motivated ENgine for Instance DEScriptions) is a frame-based knowledge representation system. It is influenced by SRL, Framekit, CommonLoops, and the Spice lisp structure implementation. The slot and facet access functions have comparable speed to the Slisp slot access functions. It has some of the Framekit and SRL functionality, such as facets, demons, and user-defined relations. However, like Loops, it makes a distinction between classes and instances. This means that instances can only be an instance of one class, while classes may be subclasses of (have an is-a relation with) more than one class. Instances may not have any slots that their classes don't have. Classes describe a way to make instances, and instances only participate in the frame network through their classes. Parmenides is implemented in Common Lisp. Other features of Parmenides include multiple language messages and user-defined relations. Parmenides is used by FRulekit, a CommonLisp frame-based RETE production system. Requires: Common Lisp Ports: Origin: Copying: Parmenides and Frulekit are available at no charge for people and institutions who wish to use it on a non-profit basis.

It contains as a kernel the ALC language which is a decidable sublanguage of first-order predicate logic. Whereas ALC is a single-agent knowledge representation language, i.e. ALC is only able to represent general world knowledge or the knowledge of one agent about the world, MOTEL is a multi-agent knowledge representation system. The MOTEL language allows modal contexts and modal concept forming operators which allow to represent and reason about the believes and wishes of multiple agents. Furthermore it is possible to represent defaults and stereotypes. Beside the basic reasoning facilities for consistency checking, classification, and realization, MOTEL provides an abductive inference mechanism. Furthermore it is able to give explanations for its inferences. Requires: Prolog Ports: Runs in SWI-Prolog (Version 1.6.17 June 1993), Quintus Prolog Release 3.1.1, or SICStus 2.1.
