Knowledge management is being hailed as the next "big thing". Perhaps the biggest thing since reengineering according to IBM. All the big players of the IT industry including IBM, Lotus, and Xerox have labeled themselves as providers of knowledge management systems. Although market demand is hot, fundamental technologies of knowledge management systems have not yet been found. First, what is the architecture of a knowledge management system or how is knowledge organized? Second, how is knowledge acquired or learned into the knowledge base? Third, where can we locate knowledge when we need to retrieve it?
We can start to answer these questions by understanding our own knowledge system, which is our brain. The human brain is a natural knowledge system that is constructed with an innate human logic capacity. This system is able to efficiently learn, organize, store, and recall knowledge. Hypothetically, if we are able to simulate the structure of human brain, we will be able to provide the technology of knowledge management.
Based on the structure of the human brain, Abstract Productions has constructed a natural intelligence system. This simulated natural intelligence system is able to reproduce a full range of human cognitive functions including learning, thinking, association, imaging, recall, and categorization. It is also able to process language grammatically, and disambiguate homophones and lexicons. All cognitive functions are able to perform coherently within this unified system.
Uniqueness in comparison to a Database application or a expert system
- Embedded Human Logic or Common Sense Capacity (without design time programming)
- Natural Leaning Capability (Automatic Knowledge Acquisition)
- General-Purpose Application (not limited in a specific domain)
- Communication Ability (Knowledge Integration and Distribution)
