哲学家们花了25个世纪来争论本体论的范畴。他们的见解是直接适用于分析,设计和规范的本体中使用的知识为基础的系统。本文探讨了人工智能中出现的一些本体论问题,一些哲学家提出的答案,以及哲学分析在澄清人工智能中一些当前问题中的应用。有两位哲学家发展了最完备的范畴体系,他们是查尔斯·桑德斯·皮尔士和阿尔弗雷德·诺斯·怀特海。他们的分析提出了一个基本的类别结构,可以为人工智能系统的设计提供一些指导方针。(C)1995年学术出版社
Philosophers have spent 25 centuries debating ontological categories. Their insights are directly applicable to the analysis, design, and specification of the ontologies used in knowledge-based systems. This paper surveys some of the ontological questions that arise in artificial intelligence, some answers that have been proposed by various philosophers, and an application of the philosophical analysis to the clarification of some current issues in AI. Two philosophers who have developed the most complete systems of categories are Charles Sanders Peirce and Alfred North Whitehead. Their analyses suggest a basic structure of categories that can provide some guidelines for the design of AI systems. (C) 1995 Academic Press Limited
