This allows rules without exceptions to never have to incur the
overhead of default reasoning.

Exceptions to rules are written like so:

  (Except-When R(x1,...,xn) Rule001)

and get canonicalized into rules concluding abnormal like so:

  R(x1,...,xn) => (Abnormal(x1,....,xn) Rule001)

Since a different 'abnormality' predicte is needed for every default
rule in the system, we instead handle this uniqueness requirement by
having a single Abnormal predicate which takes the rule in question
as an argument.

Also, the variables over which abnormality is computed is given as a
single list.  This allows Abnormal to be binary rather than
arbitrary arity. "))

Here is some elaboration, to help convey the intended meaning of the basic criterion for agenthood:  It must seem that a kind of decision-making is going on, even if it's down at the `mindless' level of the reflex reaction of a spider leg to heat, or the reflex reaction of a Human Resources Department rejecting an applicant with no formal degree.  It generally `sounds right' or `feels  natural' to assign causality to agents, rather than some larger or smaller entity.

              "A collection of tangible things.  An instance of Artifact is a tangible which was more or less intentionally created by an Agent (or a group of Agents working together) to serve some purpose or perform some function.  By `created', we don't require that the matter itself be created, it is often just the result of some sort of assemblage or modification process, such as a wooden flute that's been whittled from a tree branch, a sawhorse that's been put together out of boards and nails, a coin that's been minted by embossing or by melting liquid silver into a mold, etc.

Let's consider some positive and negative examples.

In addition to the obvious human artifacts (buildings, tools, textiles, power lines), this collection includes certain sorts of things made by Animals, such as bird nests, termite mounds, and beaver dams.

Something which just barely squeaks through the intended meaning of this concept is Yale-University.  In addition to the abstract legal entity, it consists of a set of physical buildings, furnishings, etc.  By contrast, an organization that had no headquarters building, equipment, tangible property, etc. would not be an artifact.  Similarly, a fictional character such as Tom Sawyer is not an artifact (in the context of the story, Tom is not an artifact because he is a real boy; in the context of the real world, Tom is not an artifact because he has no tangible component whatsoever.)

While some artifacts may be alive, or contain living subparts, we do not intend this collection to encompass all organisms which resulted from normal biological reproductive processes.  Your child is not an artifact.

If you do an oil painting of a house that is an artifact, but much more borderline is what you get if you take a rock and just paint it a solid color, say white.  In general that won't be an artifact unless it serves some purpose, such as marking the shoulder of a roadway, but more questionable cases are if the purpose of the white rock is just `to be sold as art' or `to look pretty.'  The white rock might thus be an artifact in certain contexts, but not in others.

Not every instance of Path-Generic (q.v.) is necessarily an instance of Artifact.  For example, some channels used for navigation may not be artifacts, because even though they are marked with human artifacts (i.e., channel markers) as locations where ships may safely travel, the channel itself may have been a naturally occurring pre-existing thing -- e.g., the English-Channel.  If a Channel-Wide-Strait were produced or maintained only by constant dredging, it might count as an artifact.  By contrast, each Canal, such as Suez-Canal, is almost certain to be an Artifact."))

This is stronger than material implication; i.e., it must also be the case that (:=> p1 p2).  Note that Causes means more than Implies, of course: there is a temporal ordering involved, there is a presumed mechanism of causation, etc.  Unlike Implies, Causes is not reflexive; one would not say that p1 causes p1, even though p1 implies p1.  Another difference between Implies and Causes is that Causes is a predicate, not a logical connective.  Just because (Causes p1 p2) is true that does NOT entail that (Causes (:not p2) (:not p1)) is true.Note that (Causes p1 p2) is generally a more accurate way of talking about causation than saying that some event e1 caused event e2 (which one can do in Cyc, using the predicate Caused-By) since often there are a few key aspects of e1 that caused a few key aspects of e2, and the remaining details of e1 and e2 were, to first order, irrelevant.  Note that, similarly, (Causes p1 p2) is generally a more accurate way of talking about causation than saying that some agent AGT caused something to be true (which one can do in Cyc, using the predicate Causes-Prop) since often there is some specific aspect of the agent, or something they were involved in or did, that is the cause of the proposition's becoming satisfied.  Because this predicate is asymetric and since effect (p2) can not temporally precede cause (p1), Causes may not be used to express mutual causation, e.g. feedback loops for which it may be said that two events (probably more process-like) cause each other.  We consider mutual causation to be a different form of causation and should be expressed using some as of yet (Dec 96) unreified relationship."))

              "A collection of collections; a subset of Tangible-Stuff-Composition-Type.  Every instance of Chemical-Compound-Type is a subset of Tangible-Thing whose instances are defined ONLY by their chemical composition, and not by their physical state or any other property.  In Cyc's current representation, Chemical-Compound-Types can be of two varieties:  (1) Collections whose instances are completely uniform with each other in terms of chemical composition; this includes (a) the chemical elements -- such as Carbon, Oxygen, and Hydrogen -- which are instances of Element-Stuff-Type-By-Number-Of-Protons (thus, the latter is a subset of Chemical-Compound-Type), and (b) compounds constituted of more than one substance chemically bonded, e.g., Water, Caffeine, and Iron-Oxide.  (2) Substances which have a general chemical specification, that is, whose instances do not have exactly the same chemical composition but fall within certain specifications, e.g., DNA.  Cyc's current theory includes those cases in Chemical-Compound-Type, though they are arguably borderline.  (Future work may require the creation of type collections to identify various levels of chemical specification, such as `exact formula' or `exact structure'.)
Note: Collections which Cyc does NOT classify as Chemical-Compound-Types include collections of substances which have some component which is of overriding significance in some context, so that in everyday language such substances are frequently referred to by the name of their important component (e.g., `penicillin' applied to a tablet containing penicillin), but which have significant admixtures of other substances.  Our representation distinguishes between the chemical compound (here, instances of Penicillin) and the mixture of substances in a tablet containing some Penicillin for pharmaceutical use.  Thus, Penicillin is an instance of Chemical-Compound-Type, but the collection of tablets containing penicillin and including other ingredients are not.  Also, subsets of Mixture, such as Lemonade, are not instances of Chemical-Compound-Type, because mixtures are determined by their physical state rather than solely by their chemical composition."))

Each Cyc collection is like a set in so far as it may have elements, subsets, and supersets, and may not have parts or spatial or temporal properties.  Sets, however, differ from collections in that a mathematical set may be an arbitrary set of things which have nothing in common (see Set-Mathematical).  In contrast, the elements of a collection will all have in common some feature(s), some `intensional' qualities.  In addition, two instances of Collection can be co-extensional (i.e., have all the same elements) without being identical, whereas if two arbitrary sets had the same elements, they would be considered equal.   As with any Cyc constant, an instance of Collection should be created only if it is expected to have some purpose or utility.  Moreover, the `best' collections to create are the ones which are impossible to define precisely, yet about which there are rules and other things to say.  E.g., `WhiteCat' is not a good element of Collection to create, because it's easy to define with other Cyc concepts, and there's not much to say about the collection of white cats; but `WhiteCollarWorker' could be a good element of Collection, because it is hard to define exactly, yet there are many things to say about it."))

Suppose predicate P is an instance of Cotemporal-Objects-Slot.  If (P X Y) holds, then it must be the case that (Cotemporal X Y).  For example, consider the binary predicate Owns, which is an instance of Cotemporal-Objects-Slot.  To represent `Nick owned Spot in 1992' we could create the appropriate cotemporal subabstractions of each, and assert (Owns NickIn1992 SpotIn1992), and this would satisfy the constraint introduced when we declared Owns to be a Cotemporal-Objects-Slot.  More tersely, we could use Holds-In (qv) and just assert (Holds-In (Year-Fn 1992) (Owns Nick Spot)), since Holds-In implicitly treats instances of Something-Existing as their appropriate subabstractions.  Alternatively, we could create a context (a microtheory) one of whose assumptions was a temporal one, limiting all axioms to holding during 1992, and then in that context we could simply assert (Owns Nick Spot).  But it would be incorrect to assert (Owns Nick Spot) in the BaseKB, since Nick as a baby and Nick as an old man didn't/won't own Spot."))

Each element of Cotemporal-Predicate is a Cyc predicate whose temporal arguments (i.e., arguments having a temporal extent) must be Cotemporal, i.e., they have the same temporal starting points and ending points.  Moreover, all the temporal arguments of all the cotemporal predicates involved in a single axiom must be Cotemporal.  Since this is a very common and important relationship, we'll consider a detailed example.   If I say `Fred owns a Camaro', what I really mean is that some Sub-Abstrac (i.e., a time-slice) of Fred, over some time interval INT (e.g., 1993-1995), owns some Sub-Abstrac of that Camaro, which exists over that very same time interval INT.  Fred may have owned many cars before and since, and that Camaro may have had many owners before and since, but one time-slice of Fred owned one time-slice of that car.  Common sense tells us that the time interval (INT) must have been the same in both cases; Cyc can infer this commonsensical conclusion from our having told it that Owns is a cotemporal relation, i.e., (:instance-of Owns Cotemporal-Predicate).  A ternary example is `between', as in `Lucy is between Fred and Ethel'.  Not all predicates are elements of Cotemporal-Predicate, of course; consider `remembers' -- I (today) remember my father as he was forty years ago.  There are some borderline cases here; Sees clearly belongs to Cotemporal-Predicate, but in the case of someone smelling another object (cf. Smells) it is less clearcut, since one can smell an object that has ceased to exist."))

Note: This collection includes all instances of legal tender, worldwide and historically.  But, for better or worse, the notion of legal tender is context-dependent.  Normally what counts as currency is relative to the country one is in; legal tender in the United States is not the same as legal tender in China.  (Though US dollars may have excellent value on the black market.)  What counts as legal tender depends on historical events as well, since a government may change, withdraw, or cancel some types of currency it previously authorized.  Also, conquest of one country by another usually brings about the collapse of the loser's currency.

Note:  Those specialized kinds of events, like Combing-Hair, are NOT subsets of Daily-Personal-Cleaning, since it would be abnormal for someone to JUST comb their hair each day (and do absolutely no other daily cleaning activity whatsoever).
Note:  In the context Human-Activities-Mt --- where all the performers of actions are, by default, human beings --- Daily-Personal-Cleaning designates human grooming activities only.  In that microtheory, dog-grooming performed by human beings does not constitute Daily-Personal-Cleaning, even if it happens on a daily basis for some pampered poodle, as it is not PERSONAL (i.e, self-) cleaning."))

              "(Domain-Assumptions M P) means that the microtheory M has the proposition P as a domain assumption.  See the comment for Microtheory for a detailed explanation of what the `assumptions' of a mt are, as opposed to its `content'.  In brief, it means that all the `content' assertions of M assume that P is true.  Another way of thinking of this is that one is `in' context M only if all its domain assumptions are true.  Another way of thinking of this is that the various `content' assertions of M only apply to objects that satisfy all its Domain-Assumptions.  Yes, that means that the `domain of quantifiers' (For-All and There-Exists) is limited to the universe of such objects.  So if it's true in M that (For-All ?x Q), and if we lift this axiom to another theory M2 that does not make the domain assumption P, then the axiom becomes (For-All ?x (:=> P Q)).  

Note:  Actually, what becomes true in M2 is slightly more complicated, namely: (For-All ?x (:=> (:and P1 P2 P3...) Q)), where P1, P2, P3,... are all the domain assumptions of M which are not implied by the domain assumptions of M2.

Note:  Domain assumption propositions --- in this case P --- must have a special format:  P must contain the free variable ?U, and this ?U represents `some term which is talked about in M'.  The idea is that one could have a domain assumption that said `if ?U is a person, ?U must have been born after 1950', or which said `if ?U is the performer of an event, then ?U is a person' etc.  For example:  (:=> (:instance-of ?U Physical-State-Change-Event) (:instance-of ?U Creation-Or-Destruction-Event)) is one of the Domain-Assumptions of the Naive-State-Change-Mt context.  It says that, in that context, physical state changes of an object (e.g., melting or boiling) are viewed as creations and destructions, in which elements of Entity come into or go out of existence, rather than viewing them as events which preserve entityhood."))

In such contexts, one could assert to Cyc that the preferred denotation of Duration was Measure-The-Word, and that the preferred denotation of Measure was Duration-The-Word, but notice that the two concepts --- Measure and Duration --- are still distinct and useful in that discipline, they just happen to have different names there."))

If VAL1 and VAL2 do have numerical grounding, a Following-Value formula is unnecessary since Numerically-Equal, Greater-Than-Or-Equal-To, and Greater-Than, are automatically computable using arithmetic relations holding between the minimum and maximum of val1 and val2.  (See Min-Quant-Value, Max-Quant-Value.)  For example, one must use Following-Value to state that (High-Amount-Fn Glamor) is more glamorous than (Low-Amount-Fn Glamor).

As its two arguments, For-All takes a variable (which is an element of CycEL-Variable) and an element of Cyc-Formula, respectively.  (For-All VAR FORM) means that FORM is true whenever all the occurrences of the variable VAR in the formula FORM are replaced by any object in the Cyc universe.  For example, to say that every person is a mammal, we could assert: (For-All ?X (:=> (:instance-of ?X Person) (:instance-of ?X Mammal))).  In addition, CycL follows a convention that allows For-All to be omitted; that is, when no explicit quantifier is used, seemingly unbound variables inside formulas are assumed to be universally quantified.  With that convention, the sample assertion could be written more compactly as: (:=> (:instance-of ?X Person) (:instance-of ?X Mammal)).



[Developer-level footnote:  There are many `flavors' of quantification `on the market' these days; here is how the Cyc system currently handles axioms that involve For-All:



When processing an FI-ASK about whether an assertion of the form (For-All VAR FORM) is true or not, Cyc determines extensionally whether or not any known VAR (anything in the knowledge base) could make FORM false.



When processing an FI-PROVE about whether an assertion of the form (For-All VAR FORM) is true or not, Cyc tries to construct an intensional proof (at least at a default-true level) that FORM must be true regardless of what VAR is ever inserted therein.



When processing an FI-ASSERT in which a user or program tells Cyc that an assertion of the form (For-All VAR FORM) is true, Cyc records it intensionally so that it can later serve as part of an intensional proof, when some future FI-PROVE request is processed.]"))

The number of different legal values there can be for the third argument (given that we've already chosen the other four) is determined by which Format attribute has been specified for the 3rd argument place of PRED..

To illustrate, let's consider a predicate with a lower Arity, say (Mother CHILD MOM), which says that the mother of CHILD is MOM.  The Arg2-Format for Mother should be Single-Entry, since an animal can have only one biological mother.





(2) If the Arg3-Format of PRED is Set-The-Format, then there may be any number of assertions with different terms in the third argument position, but sharing the same values for arguments 1, 2, 4, and 5.

the temporal stuff-type from which they were divided. This may seem counter-intuitive,
but since the 
individual temporal granules of a temporal stuff typically do NOT have most of the 
properties that the groups made of the granules have (including the property of being 
temporally stuff-like),  we do not count the individual granules as instances of the 
collection of which they are granules. See also Granule-Of-Stuff."))

Nonetheless, it is possible to define a collection parallel to any group, so that the Group-Members of that group are also instances (isa'S) of the correlated collection; e.g., each toe on my left foot is both an element of the collection of my left toes and a member of the group of toes on my left foot.  But that group (of my left toes) is a spatiotemporal thing, while the correlated collection (of my left toes) is NOT.  Another example: if I consider a certain flock of pigeons as having a location, a spatial extent, and a time of existence, then I am considering (the pigeon flock) a group and NOT a collection.  As a default, a group whose Group-Members are elements of Something-Existing is itself an element of SomethingExisting@cyc; and a group whose Group-Members are elements of Event is itself an element of Event.

Note:  Obviously there are no real units of measure for this quantity, ways of objectively measuring the amount of happiness possessed or gained or lost, etc., but still this has proven to be a useful way for Cyc to represent and reason with emotions.  E.g., one can have a rule that says that most people have a greater `amount' of happiness at their wedding than at their high school graduation, etc.  There are functions, such as Low-Amount-Fn, which take a Primitive-Attribute-Type (such as the instances of Feeling-Attribute-Type) such as Happiness and return as their value a certain-sized amount of that feeling; e.g., (Low-Amount-Fn Happiness) is an expression whose value is a positive but small amount of happiness, and that in turn will be an element of Happiness (and also will be an element of Feeling-Attribute and an element of Attribute-Value, etc.)  Feeling-Attribute-Types organize into a lattice; e.g., there are several more specialized forms of Happiness that are present in Cyc's ontology, such as Elation, Delight, Triumph-The-Feeling, etc."))

More tersely, we could use Holds-In and simply assert (Holds-In (Year-Fn 1992) (Owns Nick Spot)), since Holds-In implicitly treats instances of Something-Existing as their appropriate temporal subabstractions.  Alternatively, we could create a context (a microtheory) one of whose assumptions was a temporal one, limiting all axioms to holding during 1992, and then in that context we could simply assert (Owns Nick Spot).  But it would be incorrect to assert (Owns Nick Spot) in the BaseKB --- i.e., devoid of context --- since Nick as a baby and Nick as an old man didn't/won't own Spot."))

Each element of Illocutionary-Force is a specialized component of a communication; its function is to indicate how the speaker in a communication wants the agent(s) whom s/he is addressing to understand, and respond to, the situation--i.e., the state of affairs--described in that communication.  Isolating the `illocutionary force' of a communication allows us to characterize the intention of a speaker; e.g., whether s/he means to assert that the described state of affairs in fact holds; or to express a desire that such a state of affairs hold; or to command someone to make that state of affairs hold; or to offer to make the state of affairs hold.  S/he may even intend to make something true by stating it (e.g., ``I name this ship `The Intrepid'.''). 
Usually, apprehending a speaker's intention is important for understanding what s/he means and what s/he intends the hearer to do.  Although illocutionary forces can be represented propositionally, they are not generally communicated so explicitly.  For example, questions in English are typically communicated by inverting subject-object word order and raising one's intonation at the end of the utterance.  (The intonation marker so strongly indicates a question that it may suffice without the inverted word order, as in `You are going tonight' uttered with a rising intonation.)  Commands in English typically have an (unexpressed) understood subject and perhaps a forceful tone.  In every culture and language there are conventional sets of commonly used illocutionary forces which would be the subsets of Illocutionary-Force for that culture; e.g., in English, they include Inform contexts, Request, Offer, Promise, and Query.
Note: although in this comment Illocutionary-Force is explained in terms of utterances, it applies to communication generally; so `speaker' and `listener' should be broadly interpreted to mean, respectively, any Sender-Of-Info and Recipient-Of-Info.  See also Communicating, Communication-Act-Single.  The portion of a communication's information content that represents the illocutionary force is indicated using ComponentIF."))

Each of these predicates, like those in their superset Quantity-Slot, is a binary predicate whose second argument must be an element of Scalar-Interval, i.e., an interval or point representing the value of some measurement.  For example, take the predicate Height-Of-Object, which relates an object to its vertical length.  Although we suppose that in reality there is only a single distance that is the height of some one particular object, our measurement systems are in practice less precise--and typically we need a measurement only within a certain tolerance.  For example, in measuring the Height-Of-Object of a person, usually a measurement to the nearest inch or centimeter will do.  Or we may be even less detailed in our descriptions, perhaps caring only whether someone is more than four feet tall, or `Tall enough to ride' on an amusement park ride.  By allowing an Interval-Entry Format (qq.v.) in the second argument of the measuring predicate, we are telling Cyc that it's okay to describe the (e.g.) Height-Of-Object in several different ways, with varying levels of precision, SO LONG AS all of the measurements asserted for the same object `overlap'.  For example, it is consistent to say both that Jenny is 4'10'' tall, between four and five feet tall, and that she is `Tall enough to ride' the Dodgems (provided that `Tall enough to ride' is an interval whose minimum is at 4'10'' or lower).  Even though there is only one height of a person in reality, using an Interval-Based-Quantity-Slot allows us to represent that height in many different ways, avoiding contradictions while still checking for consistency.  For example, asserting both that Jeff's Height-Of-Object is 5'9'' and in the range 4.5-5.5 feet tall is an inconsistency."))

  "Arguments to Cyc predicates may have specified formats that constrain their values.  Interval-Entry is the format used to constrain argument positions that must be filled with measurable quantities.  If Interval-Entry is the entry format of some Nth argument to a predicate PRED, then all assertions with PRED that contain the same particular values in their other arguments must have, in the Nth (i.e., Interval-Entry) argument, quantitative values that `overlap'.  (See Scalar-Interval.)  Interval-Entry is provided because, for functional arguments like the second argument to Volume-Of-Object, we know that a single `real' value does exist, though we may have various ways of concluding limits on that value in the form of intervals.  As long as all the intervals overlap, those assertions are not contradictory.  For more explanation, see Format and the related predicates Arg1-Format, Arg2-Format, etc."))

Such intrinsic changes may include changes of a thing's color, temperature, device state, size, and so on.  Events where the main change is extrinsic (such as a change in location or ownership) are not Intrinsic-State-Change-Events.  In events which have more than one actor, the event may be an Intrinsic-State-Change-Event for one actor but not for another.  For example, in a Fastening-Safety-Belt event, the Safety-Seat-Belt (the device used) goes from unconnected to connected (to itself), which is an intrinsic change; however, the agent who does the fastening (i.e., who is Handling-A-Device) does not change intrinsically, but only in its configuration to the belt, an external object.  Another example: in a Hair-Cutting-Event, the hair that is barbered undergoes an Intrinsic-State-Change-Event due to its role in that kind of event, but the barber undergoes no intrinsic change due to the hair cutting.

Note: Some events, such as an ice cube melting into a small puddle of water, could be represented in Cyc either as an Intrinsic-State-Change-Event or as a Transfor
