BIB-VERSION:: CS-TR-v2.0 ID:: STAN//CS-TR-85-1065 ENTRY:: May 01, 1995 ORGANIZATION:: Stanford University, Department of Computer Science TITLE:: Review of Sowa's "Conceptual Structures" TYPE:: Technical Report AUTHOR:: Clancey, William J. DATE:: March 1985 PAGES:: 14 ABSTRACT:: "Conceptual Structures" is a bold, provocative synthesis of logic, linguistics, and Artificial Intelligence research. At the very least, Sowa has provided a clean, well-grounded notation for knowledge representation that many researchers will want to emulate and build upon. At its best, Sowa's notation and proofs hint at what a future Principia Mathematica of knowledge and reasoning may look like. No other AI text achieves so much in breadth, style, and mathematical precision. This is a book that everyone in AI and cognitive science should know about, and that experienced researchers will profit from studying in some detail.
