Technical Definition
A knowledge representation technology using 'frames' to model concepts and their relationships as ontologies.
How it works
Frame languages are used for knowledge representation in AI, organizing information into frames that act like concepts with attributes. They are similar to object-oriented concepts but emphasize intuitive knowledge modeling over encapsulation. Frame languages are used to build sophisticated knowledge bases.
