They will be disclosing quite a bit to their Partners if they want us to sell it.

I may not have to know the deep internals but they are going to have to tell us a lot about how to customize it and integrate it into systems that want to have questions answered.

We need to know where the levers are that control its behaviour and make it handle heathcare questions rather than pick merger and acquisition targets if they expect us to install this in hospitals or investment banks unless they want to hear doctors announcing "The patient died but I was able to give the widow a great stock tip that will make her secure for the rest of her life."

I think that we will see a lot more technical details in the coming months as the trials going on in hospitals start to show results.

IBM is a private company. Watson is their proprietary NL / question and answer system. Their internal implementation about how they have used Ontology can be disclosed only by them. But other than, we have to rely on what they have published to general public. ( Like Dr. Sowa did..)

Probably Ontolog Forum can invite them for a discussion.??

Regards,
Ferenc


Attention is the weakest, but a minimum form of connecting
