Nettlesome: Simplified Semantic Reasoning
Release v. 0.6.0.
Nettlesome is a Python library defining a limited grammar of natural-language statements that can be compared programmatically for implication or contradiction.
Nettlesome is intended for use where there is a limited schema of statements that can be used to annotate a dataset with categories, numbers, quantities, and dates. One example of such a schema is the National Information Exchange Model.
Although Nettlesome was designed to be used for legal annotations in the AuthoritySpoke library, Nettlesome itself doesn’t depend on any legal concepts or legal knowledge.
