The Keys to Relevance
Posted in Perception, Semantic Models, Semantic Search, abstraction, tagged fundamental quanta, semiotic symbol on Thursday, November 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
A key is a fundamental or central operative of harmony. The connexion of relevance is recognized concordantly.
A quick read of popular technology news and review sites– gives one the impression that the trouble people have with search engines– those called semantic search engines and all other search engines too– is the relevance of the [...]
Semantic Maps, Meaning, and other Nebulous Notions
Posted in Influence, Intelligence, Perception, Semantic Models, abstraction, tagged emotional control, physiological control, recognition, semantic map, thinking on Friday, September 26, 2008 | 1 Comment »
A semantic map is a pattern imposed on reality or experience to assist in explaining it, mediating perception, or guiding response. That is the conception of a semantic map I want the reader to have in mind as we continue.
Only Two Routes to Semantic Search?

Peter Mika recently wrote an article about the semantic web and NLP-style semantic search. I should just ignore his claim that there are only two roads to semantic search because he is plainly mistaken on that count. As Peter works for Yahoo, he was mainly discussing data processing with RDF and [...]
Semantic Acuity and Semantic Search
Posted in Perception, Semantic Models, Semantic Search, intelligent search on Wednesday, June 25, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
In looking at the comments of the last post The Search for Semantic Search, I see there appears to be some interesting interpretations. Let me explain my motives, address any perceived bias and clarify my position.
Alex Iskold wrote about semantic search that we were asking the wrong questions; that it was essentially the root [...]
The Search for Semantic Search
Posted in Intelligence, Perception, Semantic Models, Semantic Search, intelligent search, tagged intelligent search, search engines, semantics on Wednesday, June 18, 2008 | 5 Comments »
In a recent Read Write Web article that was much more myth than reality, Alex Iskold posits the fact that a semantic search engine must dethrone Google (myth1). Fortunately by the end of his article he concludes that he was mislead into thinking that. I do not think he was misled at [...]
On the Semantics of Interpersonal Relationships

I would like to address the few questions I received on the three parts 1,2 and 3 of the semantics of interpersonal relations. The first and most obvious questions was:
I don’t get it. What are the semantics?
This question is about the actual semantic rules that I did not state fully or formally in any [...]
The Semantics of Interpersonal Relations (Part 2)
Posted in Influence, Perception, Semantic Models, abstraction, tagged interpersonal elements and relations, search engines, semantic theory, systems on Saturday, January 26, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
In part 1, I offered some context and my definition of ’semantics’ as being the system of relationships that are important or significant to people and which are symptomatic of human experience. In this part, I will flush out what this means.
Though most people may be familiar with that famous quote: I think, therefore [...]
Why do we need computers to understand semantics?
Posted in Semantic Models, Semantic Web on Sunday, September 30, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Alex Iskold recently authored a couple of articles over at the Read/Write web about the Semantic Web. I caught the one labeled Top-Down: A New Approach to the Semantic Web that refers to an earlier post on the same subject. I commented at the site that I thought it was misinformed and [...]
Summer Heat and Semantic Search.
Posted in Perception, Semantic Models, Semantic Search, intelligent search on Sunday, July 29, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Things do heat up in the summer time and some say there is some competition brewing among Natural Language vendors that are offering search services.
Over at the Conceptualist, Sahar Sarid comments on whether 30 years of research is enough to beat Google. Citing Michael Reisman for MIT Technology, he thinks semantic search is [...]
