Method Summary

boolean	checkQuotient(Vertex currentState, Vertex sentence, Vertex questionInput, Vertex responseInput, java.util.Map<Vertex,Vertex> variables, Network network) Check if any of the existing quotients match, if none do, then add a new quotient.
Vertex	createFormula(Vertex questionInput, Vertex responseInput, java.util.Map<Vertex,Vertex> variables, Network network) Attempt to create a formula response from the question and response.
boolean	isConsciousProcessingRequired() The input must be processed by language first to associate the question/response.
boolean	processInput(Vertex input, Network network) If the input is a sentence process it for language rules and variable substitution.
boolean	processState(Vertex currentState, java.util.List<Vertex> words, int index, java.lang.String statePath, Comprehension.PathType path, Vertex sentence, Vertex questionInput, Vertex responseInput, java.util.Map<Vertex,Vertex> variables, Network network) Check if any of the current states match the next word, if no match, or quotient does not match, add a new case.

Method Detail

isConsciousProcessingRequired

public boolean isConsciousProcessingRequired()

The input must be processed by language first to associate the question/response.

Overrides:

isConsciousProcessingRequired in class SubconsciousThought

processInput

public boolean processInput(Vertex input,
                            Network network)

If the input is a sentence process it for language rules and variable substitution.

Specified by:

processInput in class SubconsciousThought

processState

public boolean processState(Vertex currentState,
                            java.util.List<Vertex> words,
                            int index,
                            java.lang.String statePath,
                            Comprehension.PathType path,
                            Vertex sentence,
                            Vertex questionInput,
                            Vertex responseInput,
                            java.util.Map<Vertex,Vertex> variables,
                            Network network)

Check if any of the current states match the next word, if no match, or quotient does not match, add a new case. Return if the quotient matched.

checkQuotient

public boolean checkQuotient(Vertex currentState,
                             Vertex sentence,
                             Vertex questionInput,
                             Vertex responseInput,
                             java.util.Map<Vertex,Vertex> variables,
                             Network network)

Check if any of the existing quotients match, if none do, then add a new quotient.

createFormula

public Vertex createFormula(Vertex questionInput,
                            Vertex responseInput,
                            java.util.Map<Vertex,Vertex> variables,
                            Network network)

Attempt to create a formula response from the question and response.
