So, is this an island parser on top of a Bayes net?
Haven't read the papers for a few decades, but I wonder how the auto generated code differs from General Problem Solver: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Problem_Solver https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Problem_Solver
Hope the above doesn't sound dismissive. Was working at company incubated at SRI. We were hand coding similar workflows. My guess is that VIV is a 10x improvement in workflow.
Be that as it may, it still seems to be constrained by Humans creating ontologies. So, may suffer scaling issues. Somewhat akin to Yahoo's Human curated websites vs Google's auto generated backrub.
- bobsil1 10y agoYes but they let third parties create the ontologies. If they're smart they'll do auto query optimization.
- musesum 10y agoFair point about UGC; Viv has as good a chance as all the other competitors to make it work. What do you mean by "auto query optimization"? [EDIT] removed idle speculation
- bobsil1 10y agoLike search engines, see a failed query followed by a successful one and map the first to the second.
