Semantic Networks
• Semantic networks are knowledge representation schemes involving nodes and links (arcs or arrows) between nodes.
• The nodes represent objects or concepts and the links represent relations between nodes.
• The links are directed and labeled; thus, a semantic network is a directed graph.
![Page 3: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

Semantic Networks
• In practice, the nodes are usually represented by circles or boxes and the links are drawn as arrows between the circles as shown.
• a collection of undifferentiated objects and arrows

Semantic Networks
• The structure of the network defines its meaning.
• The meanings are merely which node has a pointer to which other node.
• The network defines a set of binary relations on a set of nodes.
![Page 5: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Semantic Networks• To move semantic nets from this abstract realm to something more concrete, let us consider an example from the
structure of marketing.
• To begin simply, let us introduce two nodes and a link.
• Quad Cities is an example of a market. • The diagram, represents the fact that there is a binary relation between a market, Quad Cities, and the concept of a
market
![Page 6: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Semantic Networks
• Another node with the label "Los Angeles" and a "is-a" link from this node to the "Market" node could be added, again representing that "Los Angeles" is a type of "Market".
![Page 7: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Semantic Networks• Markets generally contain retailing entities.
• To add an example of a retailer, add a node labeled "Chain56" and two links - one from the retailer "Chain56" to "Quad Cities" labeled "is-a-retailer-in" and one from the node "Chain56" to the node "Retailer" labeled "is-a".
• This illustrates that Chain 56 is a retailer in the Quad Cities market.
![Page 8: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Semantic Networks
• It is now important to note some of possible semantic confusion.
• Notice that the nodes in this small network are not all of the same "type".
• The node labeled "Market" represents the generic or class or abstract concept of a market.
• It can be thought of as possessing properties common to all markets.
• The node "Quad Cities" represents a particular instance of a market.
![Page 9: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Semantic Networks
• The same is true of the relation between the node labeled "Retailer" and the node labeled "Chain56“.
• In order to distinguish between these two types of nodes, the class nodes become boxes and the instance nodes become ellipses.
![Page 10: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

• Another class node, labeled "Item", that represents the abstraction of items in a category, can now be added. Along with that, an instance of an item, labeled "87481", is added.
• There is a strong relationship between the class nodes and the column entities in relational database.
• The information now being represented is that Chain56 is a retailer in the Quad Cities market and that Chain56 carries the item 87481.
![Page 11: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
Semantic Networks
• The "is-a" links in the above Figure are "structural" links in that they convey "type" information about the node.
• For instance, the node labeled "87481" is an instantiation of the class node labeled "Item".
![Page 12: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
"Brand" class node with an instance
node "Ivory".
The link "is-brand" conveys the
information that the item 87481 is the
Ivory brand.
![Page 13: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Semantic Networks
• Our network in above figure now has a representation for
information about the item node “87481”.
• For instance, it is a form of Ivory which is manufactured by
Procter & Gamble; it is the 22 ounce size, white in color
and competes in the Mildness market segment of the liquid
light-duty detergent category.
• This is one item in one chain in one market.

Semantic Networks• How we can have more than 2 place predicates in semantic nets? E.g. score(Cardiff, Llanelli, 23-6).• So, for that • Create new nodes to represent new objects contained in the knowledge, game and fixture in the current example. • Relate information to nodes and fill up slots

FRAMES
• Frames can also be regarded as an extension to Semantic nets.
• Semantic nets initially used to represent labelled connections between objects.
• As tasks became more complex the representation needs to be more structured.
• The more structured the system it becomes more beneficial to use frames.
![Page 18: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

FRAMES
• A frame is a collection of attributes or slots and associated values that describe some real world entity.
• Frame systems are a powerful way of encoding information to support reasoning.
• Set theory provides a good basis for understanding frame systems.
![Page 19: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
FRAMES
• Each frame represents: – a class (set), or – an instance (an element of a class).
• A data structure to represent a mental model of a stereotypical situation such as – driving a car, – attending a meeting or – eating in a restaurant. etc.
![Page 20: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
FRAMES
• Knowledge about an object or event is stored together in memory as a unit.
• When a new situation is encountered, an appropriate frame is selected from memory for use in reasoning about the situation.
• Frames are general record-like structures which consist of a collection of slots and slot values, that may be any size and type.
![Page 21: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
FRAMES
• Slots typically have names and values or subfields called facets.
• Facets may also have names and any number of values.
![Page 22: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

24
FRAMES
• From the general frame structure, it will be seen that a frame may have any number of slots.
• A slot may have any number of facets, each with any number of values.
• This will give a general framework to build Knowledge structure.
![Page 25: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
FRAMES
• The slots in a frame specify general or specific characteristics of the entity for which the frame represents, sometimes it may also a instructions.
• Typically, slot contains information such as – attributes value pairs, – default values, – conditions for filling a lot, – pointers to the related frames, and – procedures that are activated when needed.

27
FRAMES
• Slots with attached procedures such as fget and if-needed are called procedural attachments or demons.
• They are get done automatically when a value is needed.

FRAME – BASED REPRESENTATION LANGUAGES
• Frame representations have become popular enough that special high level frame based representation languages have been developed.
• LISP is the most widely used host language, they typically have functions to – create,
– access,
– modify,
– update and
– display frames.
![Page 29: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
FRAME – BASED REPRESENTATION LANGUAGES
For example: to define frame..
(fdefine f-name <parents><slots>)
where
fdefine – is frame definition function
f-name - is the name assigned to the new frame
<parents> - is the list of all parent frames to which the new frame is linked and
<slots> - is a list of slot names and initial values.

FRAME – BASED REPRESENTATION LANGUAGES
• For example, using the function fdefine to create a train frame we might provide the following details:
(fdefine general-train land-transport
(type (VALUE passenger))
(class (VALUE first-class second-class sleeper))
(food ( restaurant (VALUE hot meals))
….

31
FRAME – BASED REPRESENTATION LANGUAGES
• Several frame languages have now been developed to aid in building frame based systems.
• They include the Frame Representation Language(FRL), Knowledge Representation Language(KRL), which served as a base language for a scheduling system called NUDGE etc.

SCRIPTS
• Scripts are another structured representation scheme introduced by Roger(1977)
• They are used to represent sequences of commonly occurring events.
• They were used to capture the meaning of stories or to understand natural language text.
• Like a script for a play.
![Page 34: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

SCRIPTS
• A script is a predefined frame-like structure which contains – expectations, – inferences, and – other knowledge that is relevant to a stereotypical
situation.

35
SCRIPTS
• Scripts are frame-like structures used to represent commonly occurring experiences such as – going to the movies, – shopping in a supermarket, – eating in a restaurant, or – visiting a dentist.
• Like a script for a play, the script structure is described in terms of actors, roles, props, and scenes.

37
Reasoning with scripts
• Scripts contain knowledge that people use for common every day activities.
• They can be used to provide an expected scenario for a given situation.
• Reasoning in a script begins with the creation of a partially filled script named to meet the current situation.
• Next, a know script which matches the current situation is recalled from memory.
![Page 38: L20 Semantic Net](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061121/546f139eb4af9f1c3c8b464a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38
• The index values such as script name, preconditions, or other key words will help to search for the appropriate script.
• Scripts have now been used in a number of language understanding systems.
