Description | This paper describes the design of newly developed Dolphin system for effective implementation of a knowledge base and question answering based on the transparent intensional logic (TIL). TIL is a high-order logic with a hierarchy of types made for representing all natural language phenomena like intensionality, temporality or belief attitudes. In the text, we will introduce the database acting as a knowledge base for inference in TIL. The time aspect of the truth value of propositions will be mentioned and basic ``thinking'' capabilities of the Dolphin system will be exemplified. |
