Abstract: A computer implemented method for the automated analysis or use of data is implemented by a voice assistant. The method comprises the steps of:(a) storing in a memory a structured, machine-readable representation of data that conforms to a machine-readable language (‘machine representation’); the machine representation including representations of user speech or text input to a human/machine interface; and (b) automatically processing the machine representations to analyse the user speech or text input.

Abstract: There is provided a computer implemented method for translating between a first natural language and a second natural language, comprising the steps of: (a) storing in a non-transitory computer-readable medium a structured, machine-readable representation of data that conforms to a machine-readable language; (b) receiving a word or sequence of words in the first natural language to be translated into the second natural language; (c) automatically translating that word or sequence of words expressed in the first natural language into the second natural language by first translating that word or sequence of words expressed in the first natural language into the machine readable language, and then translating from the machine readable language into the second natural language.

Abstract: There is provided a computer implemented method for the automated analysis or use of data, comprising the steps of: (a) storing in a non-transitory computer-readable medium a structured, machine-readable representation of data that conforms to a machine-readable language; in which the structured, machine-readable representation of data includes a plurality of tenets defining rules, the plurality of tenets including at least one constraint tenet, the at least one constraint tenet preventing a bad action; wherein the plurality of tenets comprise different sets of tenets; (b) using the different sets of tenets in different contexts, e.g. for different types of chatbots, or for different end-users.

Abstract: There is provided a computer implemented method for the automated analysis or use of data, to answer questions, comprising the steps of: (a) storing in a non-transitory storage medium a structured, machine-readable representation of data that conforms to a machine-readable language, in which the machine-readable language uses a shared syntax across factual statements, queries and reasoning, and uses nesting of nodes and passages, as an unambiguous syntax; where the data relates to parts of documents stored in a document store; (b) automatically processing the structured, machine-readable representation of data to answer questions, in which a user's query is automatically translated into the machine-readable language and a system responds to the user's query by utilising the machine-readable language translation of the query.

Abstract: First and second devices store respective device data and private keys. The first-device data is additionally stored by the second device and by a proxy; and the second-device data is additionally stored by the first device and by the proxy. In a commitment phase, each of the first and second devices uses its respective device data, private key and a random nonce to generate a respective one-time first-device or second-device commitment value, which it sends to the proxy. In a checking phase, the devices communicate secret-key information to the proxy, which verifies the received one-time commitment values. In a digest phase, the proxy calculates a one-time digest, which it sends to the second device. The second device then verifies the received one-time digest to authenticate the first device.
