Hi -
I am attempting to model some hierarchical data for use in my first
logic program and am having some problems understanding how to create
a “typeof?” relationship with my data.
Defining parent child is easy enough of course; however I would like
to design a generic way of defining a subclass or superclass such
that, given some set of hierarchical data, for example:
Domain - Eukarya
Kingdom - Animalia/Metazoa
Phylum - Chordata
Class - Mammalia
Order - Primate
Family - Hominidae
Genus - Homo
Species - Homo sapiens
(typeof? “Mammalia” “Eukarya”) and
(typeof? “Primate” “Eukarya”) and
(typeof? “Hominidae” Eukarya”)
all are true using the same mechanism without having to explicitly
define the order one by one like:
(defrel typeof? p c)
(fact typeof? “Homo” “Homo sapiens”)
(fact typeof? “Hominidae” “Homo sapiens”)
(fact typeof? “Primate” “Homo sapiens”)
(fact typeof? “Mammalia” “Homo sapiens”)
...
Any help getting started on this would be most appreciated!
Thanks!
