Natural Language Programming
BAI is developing technology for compilation of natural language statements into source code. BAI Natural Language Compiler technology includes the following features
- Object Orientated design
- Multiple language support for low level compilation
(C++ currently configured) - Visual Debugging with network view
- Declaration of function prototypes (hybrid NL programming)
- User Customisation of libraries
- Direct execution flow and articulate class contents
- Dynamic (implicit) determination of variables and classes
- Logical conditions (if, while, for) and conjunctions (and, or)
- MathText (equations)
- MathText exclusive variables (numerical/string/boolean single word entities; e.g. "X")
- Math objects (numerical/string/boolean natural language entities; e.g. "The value")
- Context maintenance (GIA and NLC referencing)
- Function argument synchronisation
- NLC stdlib (move, copy, read, write, print, etc)
- NLCI graphical user interface
- Operating system independent development - ISO C++ (currently supported by Linux EL6/EL7/UB14/UB16/UB20 and Microsoft Windows 7/8/10)
This technology is not currently being maintained and it is recommended to use a modern vectorised and hardware accelerated implementation (e.g. TensorFlow/PyTorch).
