Overview: The expansion of Generative AI has highlighted the limitations of purely neural approaches and the benefits of coupling them with symbolic counterparts epitomized by ontologies. While knowledge graphs emerge as the jack of all trades among agents dealing with language, knowledge, and orchestration, there is little consensus on the sources and roles of ontologies, in other words, knowledge. The book introduces ontological prisms, a game-changing paradigm that unfolds the geometry of knowledge into a triptych of observed worlds (facts), meanings (concepts), and shared representations (categories). On the side of operational contexts, a variety of commonly called retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) technologies rely on tailored queries to generate different types of training material: all-inclusive, specific, or curated. On the side of organizational (users) contexts, various “chain-of” scripting methods are proposed to define and organize prompts, usually paired with RAGs called dynamically to customize contexts. A long-standing endeavor in Artificial Intelligence (AI), agents can be broadly defined as software components designed to achieve specific objectives within a bounded context, given a set of resources and tools. The book is organized into three parts: principles, foundations, and architecture; cognitive functions: language, reasoning, and judgment; and systems and knowledge engineering. The third part introduces the KEOPS (Knowledge Engineering with Ontological Prisms) methodology, accompanied by a kernel developed with OWL/Protégé. This organization allows for differentiated readings for graduates, engineers, and consultants, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of agentic cognition, knowledge engineering and ontology development, as well as business intelligence and decision-making systems.
