Re: Cypher - Natural Language to RDF/SeRQL for the Semantic Web

Hi All,

I thought our technology might interest the group.

Cypher is one of the first software program available which generates
the RDF graph and SeRQL query representations of a natural language
input. The Cypher framework provides a set of robust definition
languages, which can be used to extend and create grammars and
lexicons. The Cypher specifications are designed to allow a novice to
quickly and easily build transcoders for processing highly complex
sentences and phrases of any natural language, and to cover any
vocabulary.

Why would a novice need to do this? If software exists that is that effective at parsing the semantics out of natural language, then the search engines will start using it themselves, applying it directly to the natural-language content on the pages it scans, and there will no longer even be a reason for pages to contain RDF or other metadata.
