	OpenCyc.org
		The entire Cyc ontology containing hundreds of thousands of terms, along with millions of assertions relating the terms to each other, forming an upper ontology whose domain is all of human consensus reality.
		A specification of CycL, the language in which Cyc (and hence OpenCyc) is written.
		The Cyc Foundation is now forming to manage the OpenCyc ontology and to grow the ontology and knowledge base exponentially with the help of volunteers from all walks of life.

	AI artificial intelligence
		Cyc, which is not an acronym but rather is short for enCYClopedia, aims to capture all, or a large segment, of human knowledge such as might be found in a typical encyclopedia in a knowledge base.
		Cyc is the brainchild of Douglas Lenat, with significant assistance from R.V. Guha, who conceived back in 1984 of the idea of encapsulating all of human knowledge in a rule-based system.
		Cyc had previously planned for its first open source release in mid-2001; this has obviously been pushed back although they seem to still expect it in the first half of 2002.

	Washington CYC and Philadelphia Suns Fall 2006 Asian Basketball Tournament
		CYC 18A had taken an 8 point lead midway through the first half and they seemed ready to shift it into another gear as they were headed to the Semis.
		But mysteriously, CYC went back to their 2-man forward game and Philly was able to zone them up to get the stops.
		Nevertheless, CYC was on their way to the sidelines to pack their bags and thinking about where they wanted to eat dinner on the trip home.

	Cyc: The Wright Manhattan Project for AI (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Cyc: The Wright Manhattan Project for AI Merideth Naomi is now 15 months old No new pictures posted.
		The immediate motivations for the Cyc project derive from the experience in the AI field in general during the 1970's and the early 1980's, and more specifically from failures to accomplish desired goals, such as natural language understanding and expert systems that demonstrated anything but the most narrow of expertise.
		Initially the Cyc system was almost entirely a (vanilla) frame language but this has declined in use as the use of a constraint language (based on first order predicate calculus) has risen in use.

	The Austin Chronicle: Screens: The Brain Behind Cyc: Scientist Doug Lenat Discusses Artificial Intelligence
		This involves equipping Cyc with the ability to cut through layer upon layer of ambiguity, for the world we live in is fraught with ambiguity.
		DL: HAL was a general artificial intelligence, and Cyc is the closest thing that exists in the world to that kind of general artificial intelligence.
		For example, Cyc at one point concluded that everyone born before 1900 was famous, because all the people that it knew about and who lived in earlier times were famous people.

		CYC REPORT Vaughan Pratt Stanford Univ. April 16, 1994 Revised April 19 This is a report of my visit to Cyc-West on Friday April 15, with corrections made in response to one round of feedback from Guha.
		CYC inferred an inconsistency with a record in another spreadsheet labeled "Organization" from another source that contained a record claiming that IDL is a pacifist organization.
		Doug talked about CYC at a faculty luncheon on April 5, and I had formed the impression from his enthusiastic description that CYC would be able to answer a reasonable percentage of questions at this level of general knowledge at least.

		In the #$InformationGMt, Cyc makes the more complicated inference that an agent who accesses an IBT understands its content afterwards only if the agent is able to get the encoded information using a convention familiar to that agent.
		Cyc collections are natural kinds or classes, as opposed to mathematical sets; their elements have some common attribute(s).
		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.

	itmWEB: The Unofficial, Unauthorized CYC FAQ
		CYC is the name of a very large, multi-contextual knowledge base and inference engine, the development of which started at the Microelectronics and Computer Technology Corporation (MCC) in Austin, Texas during the early 1980s.
		His most notable contributions include converting CYC from a frame-based system to one in which the fundamental data objects are logical assertions, and the implementation of logical contexts (microtheories) as a method for structuring and effectively reasoning with the knowledge in the CYC knowledge base.
		CYC can be run in a networked mode (information provided on one machine is available to all the other machines) or on a stand-alone workstation serving several users at once.

	David Whitten's unofficial Cyc FAQ
		Cyc is intended to provide a "deep" layer of understanding that can be used by other programs (such as domain-specific expert systems) to make them more flexible.
		His most notable contributions included converting Cyc from a frame-based system to one in which the fundamental data objects are logical assertions, and the implementation of logical contexts (microtheories) as a method for structuring the knowledge in the Cyc knowledge base.
		Cyc has predicates that refer to the symbol 'Cyc', but since it would not have a representation of itself in space, it couldn't be immediately usable as a control program for a robot.

	CYC: Building HAL
		The type of knowledge that CYC is really an expert in though is a general type of knowledge known as common sense.
		After 1994, the CYC program was reported to be mature enough, developed enough, to become profitable, and so spun off to become Cycorp, and to market the current abilities of CYC.
		From his visit it appeared that CYC was a bit unstable and hardly mature enough to perform outside of a very specific and limited range of behaviors.

	Operating Principles
		In order to maintain the CYC's focus on sailing while balancing member fairness, wear on docks/moorings and CYC financial impacts, the CYC Executive Board, on behalf of the membership, has formalized a set of policies to provide member guidance in these activities.
		The CYC provides about 25 areas for winter primary boat storage for the convenience of members who may not have the facilities to store their CYC primary boat in a personal location.
		Members who have stored their boat at the CYC in the past, but said boat would currently be in violation of these guidelines, will be eligible to store that particular boat at the CYC, but will be assessed the additional surcharges, as appropriate.

	IMHOFAQ: Expert systems and Cyc
		Doug Lenat's Cyc (from enCYClopedia) Project at MCC in Austin, Texas, was begun in 1984 as a ten-year $35-million attempt to build a 'universal' expert system, able to understand and speak ordinary language, and detect violations of common sense as readily as humans can.
		Versions of CYC for Macs and Suns are supposed to be released this year.
		Lenat has revised his estimate of the total number of 'rules' required for this, upward by a factor of ten (to 20-40 million), and extended the time needed by another ten years.

	SignOnSanDiego Science News -- AI's missing link may be in the gut
		Lenat is a former Stanford professor attempting to teach common sense to a computer named Cyc (pronounced sike).
		It's been a long and laborious process, primarily because Lenat is teaching Cyc about reality one fact at a time.
		By the 1970s, most AI scientists had given up on that notion and moved on to more modest ambitions, like developing task-specific systems in which a computer is programmed to know everything about a single subject, such as how to monitor and regulate elevator movement.

	CYC Report -- V. Pratt (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Other axioms for this photo included "The girl is on a beach" and "The girl is reclining." The request "someone relaxing" found this image by inferring from the fact that she was reclining that she was relaxing.
		CYC is taught in the Stanford course CS 321, "Representing Large Bodies of Knowledge," which meets once a week.
		After looking at the axioms it is clear to me that merely lowering expectations is not sufficient in order to come up with a suite of questions that CYC is likely to be able to answer say 20% of.
