A knowledge representation for the communication between robots

摘要

The present study deals with the case in which a robot teaches the knowledge to another robot through questions and answers. In this case, the expression format of the necessary knowledge and the knowledge transmission method are proposed. Both robots must hold the minimum level of knowledge so that the teaching side robot must know in advance what types of knowledge are possessed by the taught side robot while the taught side robot may previously understand what the teaching side robot desires to teach. The same format of knowledge possessed by the respective robots must be shared for the sake of standardization of knowledge. The transmission of knowledge means writing the letter string into the counterpart robot's database. The processing inside the counterpart robot's database is entirely done in conceptual dependency (CD) mode. Using this CD mode simplifies the transmission and processing of knowledge and the development into a lower ranking robot language. Furthermore, the conformity with various robots which are being developed using the CD mode can also be improved. A teacher robot could teach the procedures of assembling work to a work robot using this system.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
