database
- It can be also augmented with other knowledge databases
The log spiral plots all 24,000 categories in the ALICE
- Brain. The spiral itself represents the root. The trees
emerging from the root are the patterns recognized by
- ALICE. The branching factor for the root is about
2000, but the average branching factor of the second pattern word is only about two. (http://www.alicebot.org/documentation/gallery/)
