Abstract
An inference system responsive to omitting links from indexes in semantic network elements is described. The inference system prioritizes strategies that avoid trying to follow links from an index from which they may have been omitted.
Claims18
An apparatus comprising an inference system (109), wherein the inference system is responsive to an omission rule (108) coupled to an index maintainer (107) for deciding for a link (106) in a semantic network (106) whether to include the link in each of the indexes (113) associated with nodes (105) that the link references.
A method comprising performing, by a processor (100), inference over a semantic network (106), wherein the inference is responsive to a link (106) having been omitted from an index (113) associated with a node (105) referenced by the link in the semantic network.
A computer program product stored on non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising program code means for causing a computer to perform inference over a semantic network, wherein the inference is responsive to a link having been omitted from an index associated with a node referenced by the link in the semantic network.
