The approach presented here begins with two separate Al systems, OpenCog (introduced in Chapter 6.3) and DeSTIN (introduced in Chapter 4.3.1) - both currently implemented in open-source software. Here are the relevant fe

somewhat in the de- tails from the manner in which these things would be incorporated into a standalone DeSTIN, but pursuing the same concepts in an OpenCog integration context. What we describe here is a way to make a "Uniform DeSTIN", in which the internal repre- sentation of perceived visual forms is

Our experiments with virtual worlds so far have used the high-level approach described here; but we are also expe

N nodes are activated and exported to the OpenCog Atomspace • Recognition that a block is present is carried out, either by - PLN inference within OpenCog, drawing the conclusion that a block is present from the exported predicates, using ImplicationLinks comprising a working definition of a "block"

This architecture is not yet fully implemented, but is a straightforward extension of the current OpenCog architecture for processing data from game worlds IGEA08], and is scheduled for implementation later in 2013 in the course of a funded project invo
