Knowledge Representation Commonsense Knowledge

An ontology represents knowledge as concepts and relationships within a domain. Knowledge representation and engineering are central to AI research, as machines need extensive knowledge about the world to solve problems. An ontology is the set of objects, relations, concepts and other domains that a machine knows about, providing a representation of "what exists". The most general ontologies are called upper ontologies, which attempt to provide a foundation for all other knowledge.

Knowledge representation[edit]

An ontology represents knowledge as a set of concepts within a domain and the relationships between those
concepts.

Main articles: Knowledge representation and Commonsense knowledge


Knowledge representation[44] and knowledge engineering[45] are central to AI research. Many of the
problems machines are expected to solve will require extensive knowledge about the world. Among
the things that AI needs to represent are: objects, properties, categories and relations between
objects;[46] situations, events, states and time;[47] causes and effects;[48] knowledge about knowledge
(what we know about what other people know); [49] and many other, less well researched domains. A
representation of "what exists" is an ontology: the set of objects, relations, concepts and so on that
the machine knows about. The most general are called upper ontologies, which attempt to provide a
foundation for all other knowledge
