12. Answer: • The Orbs initially have local structure but no global structure and yet are easy to organize into a specific global structure • Categorical Abstraction creates similarity relationships which can be modified in real time using mutual induction (human reification through cognitive priming and visualization) • Event Chemistry stores past work product into things-to-try, where the resulting organization expresses real science regarding event structure and sub-structure to function relationships • Now the retrieval task has by-passed schema structure imposed in classical database models and allows real time intuition to play an un-encumbered role Simple Architecture: basic intuition behind Orbs Diagram from Prueitt (2004)

16. Production of Event Measurement Metrics Implicit Ontology T ground (B 1) T ground (B 2) T ground (B 3) Explicit Ontology de Cresponse T ground (B 5) T ground (B 4) For each response, d, the implicit ontology produces a set of metrics, { mk }, and these metrics are used as the atoms of a logic. These atoms are used to produce an explicit ontology. The logic is then equipped with a set of inference rules. Evaluations rules are then added to produce an inference about the response set. Advanced Architecture: event metrics Diagram from Prueitt (2002)

17. Differential Ontology Framework • By the expression “Differential Ontology” we mean the interchange of structural information between Implicit (machine-based) Ontology and Explicit (machine-based) Ontology • by Implicit Ontology the variations of latent semantic indexing. These are continuum mathematics with only partial representation on the computer. • by Explicit Ontology we mean an bag of ordered triples { < a , r, b > }, where a and b are locations and r is a relational type, organized into a graph structure, accompanied by first order predicate logic. This is a discrete formalism. Implicit Ontology Explicit Ontology Advanced Architecture: differential ontology framework Diagram from Prueitt (2002)

18. Tri-level Architecture : bases for abduction of event function and mutual induction from substructure memory with human in the loop The Tri-level architecture is based on the study of natural systems that exist as transient stabilities far from equilibrium. The most basic element of this study is the Process Compartment Hypothesis (PCH) that makes the observation that “systems” come into being, have a stable period (of autopoiesis) and then collapse. Human cognition is modeled in exactly the same way. Human mental events are modeled as the aggregation of elements of memory shaped by anticipation. The tri-level architecture for machine intelligence is developed to reflect the PCH. A set of basic event atoms are developed through observation and human analysis. Event structures are then expressed using these atoms, and only these atoms, and over time a theory of event chemistry is developed and reified.

19. cA/eC : categoricalAbstraction and eventChemistry • Neuroscience informs us that the physical process that brings the human experience of the past to the present moment involves three stages. • 1) First, measured states of the world are parceled into substructural categories. • 2) An accommodation process organizes substructural categories as a by-product of learning. • 3) Finally, the substructural elements are evoked by the properties of real time stimulus to produce an emergent composition in which the memory is mixed with anticipation. • Each of these three processes involves the emergence of attractor points in physically distinct organizational strata. The study of Stratified Complexity appeals first to foundational work in quantum mechanics and then to disciplines such as cultural anthropology and social-biology. categoricalAbstraction (cA) is the measurement of the invariance of data patterns using finite set of logical atoms derived from the measurement. eventChemistry (eC) is a theory of type that depends on having anticipatory processes modeled in the form of aggregation rules, where the aggregation is of the cA logical atoms.

20. gF : two examples generalFramework (gF) theory constructs cA/eC knowledge based on “conversation” with humans. The general form of a framework is constructed based on specific knowledge of an application domain We have generalized from a physical theory of about formative processes, to a computational architecture based on frameworks.Various forms are conjectured to exist as part of emergent classes, and to have a periodic table – like, in many ways, the atomic period table. The Sowa-Ballard Framework has 18 “semantic atoms”. The Zachman has 30 atoms. Ballard/Sowa Framework “According to Alvin Toffler, knowledge will become the central resource of the advanced economy, and because it reduces the need for other resources, its value will soar. (Alvin Toffler, Power Shift, 1990). Using architectural constructs such as the Zackman Framework, can prepare organizations to tap their inner banks of knowledge to improve their competitive positions in the twenty-first-century.

21. mI : mutual Induction between machine memory and human Introspection Mutual induction occurs when cognitive priming triggers mental events in humans. If an incomplete pattern is presented using SLIP visualization of topological neighborhoods, in Orb structure, then Human-centric Information is Produced (HIP). SAR = structure activity relationships Advanced Architecture: mutual Induction from Dr. Paul Prueitt Diagram from Prueitt (1995)

22. Situational Logic Construction A latent technology transform, T ground , is used to produce simple metrics on membership of sub-structure in event structure from the response collectionCresponse in the categories defined by the contents of the bins C exemplar = B 1 È B n2 È . . . È B q These bins are represented in the situational logic as the logical atoms A , from which a specific logic is constructed. These atoms are then endowed with a set of q real numbers that are passed to an Inference Processor. The set of q real numbers are computed from a formal “evaluations of the structural relationship between logic atoms” using the Ontology Lens. Atom a  { r1 , r2 , . . . , rq } The process of developing a situational logic treats new data structure as axioms, and then a process of reduction of axioms to logical atoms occurs (Russian Semiotics). The reduction also requires the Ontology Lens, (invented 2002 by Prueitt). Advanced Architecture: situational logics from Dr. Paul Prueitt Diagram from Prueitt (2003)

23. The Ontology Len (discovered by Prueitt, 2002) is a structural focus “instrument” that is designed to allow non-computer scientists to specify high quality exemplar sets. This is done with an Implicit Ontology to Explicit Ontology (IO-EO) loop. • When the user puts a new unit into a bin or removes a unit from a bin, then the IO-EO loop will produce a different result. • It is the human responsibility to govern the IO-EO loops so that the results have the properties that the human wants, mostly independence of categories, but perhaps some specific (and maybe interesting) “category entanglements”. A graphic representation of what we call a “Latent Semantics Index structural similarity matrix”. The similarity is called structural because the exact notion of semantic similarity is not known from this algorithmic computation by itself. The paragraphs of a small exemplar set (see appendix A) are ordered as labels for the columns and rows. One would expect that a paragraph would be structurally similar with itself, and this is in fact what one sees as a set of dots (representing a value of 1) down the diagonal.
