Current efforts to
build the Semantic Web have been based on creating machine readable
metadata, using XML tags and RDF triples to formally represent
information. It is generally assumed that the only way to create an
intelligent Web agent is to build a new Web, a Web specifically for
machines, using a unified logical language. We are attempting to
solve this disparity between humans and machines from the opposite
direction, by enabling machines to
understand and reason on natural
language statements, and giving them knowledge of the world we live
in.
Future Work
We are currently working on
automatically selecting and querying Web Services based on a user's
request. More information will be posted in the future.
