What CogNarr does

CogNarr reads a narrative and builds a story graph you can inspect and correct. The story view shows the narrative, the semantic graph built from the selected sentence, and an inspector for any element.

The CogNarr story view: the narrative text, the semantic graph built from a sentence, and an inspector panel for the selected element.
  • CogNarr transforms natural-language narrative into a formal, queryable semantic graph.
  • It represents uncertainty explicitly, as soft distributions across the many dimensions of a reading, such as word sense, coreference, and entity identity.
  • It captures a narrative's argument structure, its timeline, and the modality of its claims, including predictions and conditionals.
  • It lets a writer inspect and correct the graph until it reflects their intended meaning, with corrections that persist yet remain revisable.
  • It supports precise communication between software agents over a shared semantic structure.
