non DSL based NLP for simple predicates --------------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-37 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-37 Project: JBoss Rules Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Rule Assemply/SPI Affects Versions: 3.0-beta1 Reporter: Michael Neale Assigned To: Michael Neale Fix For: 4.0.0.MR3 Original Estimate: 3 days Remaining Estimate: 3 days Should be based on a config file, which spels out what possesive strings are, conjunctions etc, what are redundant So we can do: The Dog's name is fido and its age is less than 2 Dog(name=="fido", age < 2) ['s] is possesive, [is] is the operator, [its] references the Fact, The is stripped out etc. basic format of {fact, field, opr, arg} conjuntion {repeat} [08:54] <bob> if default lang could do cheesy reflection name-based stuff, perhaps? [08:54] <bob> turning verbs into methods by reflection? [08:54] <bob> w/o any specific mappings? [08:54] <bob> <-- cluefree [08:55] <bob> import com.myco.pets.* [08:56] <bob> ... [08:56] <bob> dog name is "Ted" [08:56] <bob> Dog( name='Ted' ) [08:56] <bob> etc [08:56] <bob> purely very basic by default [08:56] <bob> or am I thinking about it wrong? [08:56] <bob> mic! [08:56] <bob> stop perving [08:56] <bob> start IRCing! [08:58] <mic> bob: yeah can do that to [08:58] <mic> started working on something like that, but on the back burner for the moment [08:58] <mic> of course, need to know that it is a Dog object to do reflection etc... [08:58] <mic> but thats more of a 3.1 thing [08:59] <mic> would be a seperate expander [09:00] <bob> yah, string[0] is a noun, search imports for class named string[0] [09:00] <bob> 'k [09:00] <bob> noun attribute operator value [09:00] <bob> filter out throw-away words like "a" "the" etc
