AIML is an XML complient language created to allow creation of a dialog engine. Responses to various stimulus phrases are stored in an organized way. These responses are optionally recursive in nature. AIML was used to win the Lobner (Turing test) Prize in AI in 3 differnt years. There are aiml engines in python, C++, java and other languages. AIML processes word oriented data. Punctuation and Capitalization are generally ignored.

Overview

AIML is an XML complient language created to store data to drive a dialog engine. Responses to various stimulus phrases are stored in an organized way. These responses are optionally recursive in nature. AIML was used to win the Lobner (Turing test) Prize in AI three differnt years. There are aiml engines in python, C++, java and other languages.
