Abstract: Methods for constructing and maintaining knowledge representation systems are disclosed herein. The knowledge representation system is initially organized and populated using knowledge engineers. After the initial organization, scientific domain experts digest and structure source texts for direct entry into the knowledge representation system using templates created by the knowledge engineers. These templates constrain both the form and content of the digested information, allowing it to be entered directly into the knowledge representation system. Although knowledge engineers are available to evaluate and dispose of those instances when the digested information cannot be entered in the form required by the templates, their role is much reduced from conventional knowledge representation system construction methods. The methods disclosed herein permit the construction and maintenance of a much larger knowledge representation system than could be constructed and maintained using known methods.
