Carlos will complete the integration of RelEx (including the RelEx2Frame component) with OpenCog, and then carry out various RelEx improvements needed to make RelEx useful to virtually embodied agents. Samir will integrate the NLGen language ge

As a main (but not exclusive) goal we will be seeking to demonstrate some examples of the use of embodied experience to help with natur

the lead author Ben Goertzel, the overall work and underlying ideas have been very much a team effort, with major input from the sec- ondary authors Cassio Pennachin and Nil Geisweiller, and large contributions from various other contributors as well.

No doubt it will evolve in some respects as implementation progresses; one of the principles kept in mind during the design and development of OpenCog was modular- ity, enabling substantial modifications to particular parts of the framework to occur without requiring wholesale changes throughout th
