Abstract

A method for emulating human cognition in electronic form is disclosed. Information is received in the form of a textual or voice input in a natural language. This is parsed into pre-determined phrases based on a stored set of language rules for the natural language. Then, the parsed phrases are determined as to whether they define aspects of an environment and, if so, then creating weighting factors to the natural language that are adaptive, the created weighting factors operable to create a weighted decision based upon the natural language. Then it is determined if the parsed phrases constitute a query and, if so, then using the weighted factors to make a decision to the query.

Claims

1. A method for emulating human cognition in electronic form, comprising:

receiving information in a form of a textual or voice input in a natural language;

parsing the received input into pre-determined phrases based on a stored set of language rules for the natural language;

determining if the parsed phrases define a concept and, if so, then creating weighting factors to other concepts in the natural language in an ordered list, the created weighting factors operable to create a weighted relationship to the other concepts; and

determining if the parsed phrases constitute a query and, if so, then using the weighted factors to make a decision to the query.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the stored set of language rules includes fundamental concepts that underlie human personality.
