Abstract

Reidentification has been recognised as the most central job of

cognition [1]. In my Master's thesis, titled 'Connecting conceptual
agents in Semantic Web', the function of concepts (abilities to
reidentify, [1]) in communication is discussed to solve the semantic
interoperability problem. We developed CROC: a Representational
Ontology for Concepts, to give artificial agents concepts based on
lexical representations [2].
