Amine
Group: www.sourceforge.net/projects/amine-platform
Amine
Platform Project: Amine is a multi-layer and open-source platform,
implemented in Java and dedicated to the development of intelligent systems
and agents. Amine is composed of four layers: a) a kernel layer that enables
the creation, edition, update and manipulation of multi-lingua ontologies, b)
an algebraic layer that offers a set of elementary data types (AmineInteger, AmineDouble,
etc.) and structured types (AmineSet, AmineList, Term, Concept, Relation, Conceptual Graph) and
various matching-based operations (like match, equal, unify, subsume, maximalJoin, generalize, analogy, compare, etc.), c) a
programming layer that provides three programming paradigms and d) an agent
and multi-agent systems layer that enables the development of agent-based
applications.
