Enum Class StatementOrigin

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<StatementOrigin>

ai.chatur.cortex.StatementOrigin

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<StatementOrigin>, Constable

public enum StatementOrigin
extends Enum<StatementOrigin>

Where a statement returned by CortexQuery.describe(String) came from.

The three origins are exhaustive and mutually exclusive: a statement is either something a human approved, part of the ontology the graph is built on, or a consequence the reasoner drew from the two.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
ASSERTED	Approved into the knowledge graph by a human, and therefore carrying provenance.
INFERRED	Derived by the reasoner from the approved assertions and the ontology.
ONTOLOGY	Part of the ontology the graph is built on.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static StatementOrigin	valueOf(String name)	Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name.
static StatementOrigin[]	values()	Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Details

ASSERTED

public static final StatementOrigin ASSERTED

Approved into the knowledge graph by a human, and therefore carrying provenance.

ONTOLOGY

public static final StatementOrigin ONTOLOGY

Part of the ontology the graph is built on. The reasoner is bound to the ontology as its schema, so the ontology's own axioms are visible alongside the assertions; they were authored with the application, not derived and not approved, so they carry no provenance.

INFERRED

public static final StatementOrigin INFERRED

Derived by the reasoner from the approved assertions and the ontology.

Method Details

values

public static StatementOrigin[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static StatementOrigin valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum class has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
