Abstract
Common sense and judgement ability, in the same way as humans, are necessary to realize a computer that communicates directly with humans. Such a thing needs the ability to recall a concept from a particular word and to associate the concept with others. A Time Judgement System that can understand everyday time expressions is important for natural communication, and the system was based on the aforesaid Association Mechanism. The purpose of this research is to construct the system that can treat regular time expressions with adaptability to unknown expressions. The resultant Time Judgement System achieves a correct response rate of 75.9% with accuracy of 85.8%, comparable to that of human subjects.
