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"

Its input must look like X_Link A B X_Link B C And its output then looks like X_Link A C Here, X_Link may be either InheritanceLink, SubsetLink, ImplicationLink or Extension- allmplicationLink. A PLN formula goes along with a PLN rule, and tells the uncertain truth value of the output, base

igence (or any other kind of highly powerful general intelligence), the creation of novel ideas will be paramount. New idea creation takes place in OpenCog via a variety of methods - e.g. inside MOSES which creates new program trees, PLN which creates new logical relationships, ECAN which creates new a

ces. and combining information about them in an appropriate way. In this subsection, we'll discuss an approach that should work for InheritanceLink, SubsetLink, Impli- cationLink, and ExtensionalImplicationLink and other related link types. But we'll explicitly present it only for the InheritanceLink case.
