Overview:
Natural Language Understanding (NLU) was one of the main original goals of artificial intelligence and cognitive science. This has proven to be extremely challenging and was nearly abandoned for decades. We describe an implemented system that supports full NLU for tasks of moderate complexity. The natural language interface is based on Embodied Construction Grammar and simulation semantics. The system described here supports human dialog with an agent controlling a simulated robot, but is flexible with respect to both input language and output task.
