Wow, so I’m really cruising along on the development of various software systems.  I wrote a web front end for the software that will soon run POSI (http://posithon.org).  It is a goal tracking and knowledge representation system used to model people’s goals, interests, and abilities and use that information to help form teams  to solve specific problems.

Related to this is the Job-Search resume matching program, which had been written earlier.  I’m half-way through writing a web front end so anyone can submit their resume and have the results processed.  This includes creating a daily update script for the scraper.  The resume matcher takes your resume, parses all the different skills and experience, and uses this to query Craigslist job postings to find the best matches.

Lastly, I’ve written code for Reasonbase that populates a wiki with information that has been extracted from text.  It runs OpenCalais along with other text analysis procedures on the submitted URI, and these provide information for all the named entities, which are then fed into a Wiki.  The first instance of this, the Tara Knowledge Archives, is (partially) online.

Tell your friends, join #posi @ freenode to work with others on interesting projects of your/their choosing.

The FRDCSA release is coming along, although I haven’t spent too much time on it recently.  Of course, all the software I mentioned above with be copied via git to the VM before being released.

There are so many projects I want to work on.  But reality is calling. Disability will soon expire and then I’ll be looking for a job.  So if you know anyone that wants to hire, please let them and me know.  I am
also open to doing consulting once the disability has ended.  If you are looking for consulting work, I am writing code to consolidate consulting tasks using the POSI infrastructure and information.

Hello friends and bots, the FRDCSA will be available to download soon - in all its glory.  A working, configured virtual machine will be the easiest way to distribute the system for now given the myriad dependencies and other configuration items that have not been ironed out yet.  Just load it into the Virtual Machine software of your choice and you have the nascent FRDCSA at your fingertips.  I would like it if those who are considering downloading it email me, but of course that's not necessary.  As there is no coherent documentation, please feel free to contact me for explanation of how the software might suit your needs.  Also, all who discover the software systems of the FRDCSA could help by documenting them.  Okay, thanks.  I'm sure that you won't be disappointed, but chances are you won't know which tools are useful to you.
 
Relative Consistency Proofs PDF Print E-mail

In the course of a proof, at each step, when you make an inference, you have to protect the inference from leading to a false conclusion, because the axioms and or rules of inference could very well be inconsistent.  What assurance do you have for the safety of the conclusion?  How has it been secured?  And where would you put a proof of the consistency of the axioms and the rules of inference?  Ultimately, perhaps this must reside in the mind of the prover.  It is here that the prover may be tricked.  If she wishes to verify some set of axioms and rules of inference, she must either do it in another proof system, or in her head (or perhaps I am mistaken).  Anyways, this is what a fresh pair of eyes yields upon rediscovering mathematical logic.
 
Raiders of the FTP Sites PDF Print E-mail

While the FRDCSA has a ridiculous number of projects ongoing at any
time, a recently developing project has taken my fancy because it
promises to offer good dividends.  The project, called "Raiders of the
FTP Sites", well, speaks for itself.  It is a system that searches FTP
sites for interesting artifacts and retrieves them.  It works by
correlating subject matter of interest with FTP sites, extracting a
recursive directory listing of the FTP site, and then performing
several analyzes of the contents.  While still a very immature system,
it has yielded up a labelled resume corpus which will help the
job-search program.

Three new useful AI systems have been successfully configured and tested:

  • Sentiment Analysis using OpinionFinder-1.5
  • Query Expansion using LucQE
  • Natural Language to Logic Conversion using ResearchCyc

Unfortunately, I believe only LucQE is free software.  However, having these abilities will improve the analytic capabilities of the FRDCSA to help with the mission of promoting the use of free software.  For instance, the Sentiment Analysis system can determine who is expressing bad opinions about us, allowing us to automatically avenge them.  Lol.  Indeed it unfortunately could be used for that purpose.  However, it is intended to be used for MPQA (Multiple Perspective Question Answering), in order to get a better idea of subjective statements.

In other news, I am searching for research interest ontologies, in order to have an idea what to search for in terms of new systems.
