Using naturally occurring texts as a knowledge acquisition resource for knowledge base design: developing a knowledge base taxonomy on microprocessors

<p>Many artificial intelligence applications suffer severely from a bottleneck in acquiring domain information necessary to go beyond toy hand-built demonstrations to realistic applications. This project examines one approach to reducing that bottleneck by using automated and semi-automated te...
