Abstract

CGKAT helps KA and IR by combining a CG workbench with a structured document editor, and by providing default general ontologies and functions to search and handle them. Thus, compared to other current KA or IR systems, it provides more ways or more precise ways to represent or index DEs and structure these DEs or the knowledge representations, and more guidance or freedom for representing or structuring information (KA or IR systems generally do not provide a default ontology or provide a non-extensible ontology). Articles related to CGKAT are accessible at http://www.inria.fr/acacia/CGKAT/.

CGKAT could be quickly extended by using extensions of CoGITo (e.g. with rules and CGs index), of Thot (e.g. Alliance for document cooperative edition and Amaya for Web-browsing) and of WordNet (e.g. EuroWordNet and International WordNet).
