Abstract

A novel Conceptual Graph Matching Algorithm (CGMA) is proposed along with a knowledge base organization scheme. It allows the user to select the Degree of Matching and Degree of Inheritance to increase the user's satisfaction. A conceptual graph is represented in a special linear form (called U-Form) for CGMA. U-Form eliminates the necessity of explicit arcs in the graph to achieve the simplicity.
