Homogeneous (Uniform) Knowledge Representation

Homogeneous (Uniform) Knowledge Representation
in Prodigy
In Prodigy, all types of rules- inference rules,
operators, and control rules, are represented uniformly. This allows
the control rules to apply to both inferences and operators, guiding the
application of rules. This representation allows Prodigy to
examine and modify all of its own
knowledge. This approach to knowledge manipulation is termed the
glass box approach.
Another advantage to uniform representation is that it allows additional
learning or problem-solving modules to be easily added, which gives
Prodigy its modular design.
