Abstract
An autonomous biologically based learning tool system and a method that the tool system employs for learning and analysis are provided. The autonomous biologically based learning tool system includes (a) one or more tool systems that perform a set of specific tasks or processes and generate assets and data related to the assets that characterize the various processes and associated tool performance; (b) an interaction manager that receives and formats the data, and (c) an autonomous learning system based on biological principles of learning. The autonomous learning system comprises a memory platform and a processing platform that communicate through a network. Both the memory platform and the processing platform include functional components and memories that can be defined recursively. Knowledge generated and accumulated in the autonomous learning system(s) can be cast into semantic networks that can be employed for learning and driving tool goals based on context.
