Re: Casual Communication, AI, and Text Processing

Most anyone attempting to create AI has to be crazy. The complexity surrounding language and its use is a mind numbing thing to consider. There was a very good article in Harper's April 2001 called "Tense Present". I think what you are trying to accomplish really needs to be throughly broken down into the parts that make up languages, the more the better, and discern the commonality between them.

There are good articles on Perl for language parsing in TPJ. Fall 2000 and Summer 2000 jump to my mind immediately.

Take a look at the Lingua related modules to see what others have done.

Take a look at the Lingua related modules to see what others have done. Probably Lingua::LinkParser could be a good starting point. There is also a TPJ article by Dan Brian about that Module. Hanamaki	[reply]

I just wanted to say, that your link and quick comment deserves more ++'s than I can give. That module will help me a lot. If anything to keep my mind busy for the day. :) Thank you! _14k4 - perlmonks@poorheart.com (www.poorheart.com)	[reply]

And be sure to check out the Wordnet Module, the Liguana Project and again Dan Brians article on the `Wordnet` module. E.g with Wordnet the input "ketch" will allow you to talk about "sailing ships" in general. Hanamaki	[reply] [d/l]
