Abstract

Nowadays, more and more industries achieve automatic large-scale production, and also more and more robots undertake the responsibilities of domestic chores. When machines run in industries or robots work in home, they should have abilities to make judgement and abilities to learn from experience, if they want to do their jobs well. In this study, a commonsense knowledge base (CKB) and an inference engine that can support decision making with the commonsense knowledge are built. They can understand human languages, and equip with inferencing abilities, and learning abilities.
