Peirce’s Graphs
| Abstract | Over a decade ago, John Sowa (1984) did the AI community the great service of introducing it to the Existential Graphs of Charles Sanders Peirce. EG is a formalism which lends itself well to the kinds of thing that Conceptual Graphs are aimed at. But it is far more; it is a central element in the mathematical, logical, and philosophical thought of Peirce; this thought is fruitful in ways that are seldom evident when we first encounter it. In one of his major works on Existential Graphs, Peirce remarks that.. | |||||||||
