The following are the main points you should have learned from this chapter:
- Individual-property-value triples form a flexible, universal representation for relations.
- Ontologies are required for knowledge sharing.
- OWL ontologies are built from individuals, classes, and properties. A class is a set of real and potential individuals. A property links an individual to a data type or an individual.
- The ability to explain reasoning and debug knowledge in terms of semantic content can improve the usability of a knowledge-based system.
- A meta-interpreter can be used to build a light-weight implementation of a knowledge-based system that can be customized to fit the requirements of the representation language.
