If we want to refer to the truth value of an Atom A in the context C, we can use the construct ContextLink <truth value> C Sometimes, Atoms in OpenCog are labeled with two truth value components as

MindAgents, e.g. - activation affects action selection. For instance this may be effected by a process that, each cycle, causes a certain amount of STICurrency to pass to schema satisfying certain properties (those involving physical action, or terminating rapidly).

For instance, suppose there is an Atom A at the fringe of the inference tree, and its importance hasn't been assessed with high confidence, but a number of items B are known so that: Membe

• Attentional Currency: Short Term Importance and Long Term Importance values are implemented in terms of two different types of artificial money, STICurrency and LTICur- rency. Theoretically these may be converted to one another. • Attentional Focus: The Atoms in an OpenCog Atomspace whose ShortTennImport
