Starmap - Building method of Collective Intelligence
Our Hungarian partner has developed a symbolic interface working on the basics of knowledge-sociometrics. The system is practically offering the operating possibilities of a 'COMMON-BRAIN'. From the many kind of possible application areas such case is emphasized when fore-pointing summaries should be created from the “living matrix” of human thoughts, opinions and ideas (live discussion, brainstormings, work discussions, political debate, interest harmonization, etc.). The system is tailor made to automatically filter out the most efficient essence from a data- or thought-mass or to provide the most relevant elements to a given question. The basic of this system is a highly sophisticated coherence-examining method. It tries to build up a total complexity-net from an arbitrary database even with low number of internal data-coherences. From this the system can easily come up with such an answer to any question which is much more farseeing than an answer as the result of a possible mechanical database enquiry. The novelty of the system This system can give answers (with high accuracy and low margin of error) to such questions for which other methods would fail to give an answer and the pattern-style answer’s extra-quality is given. The basis of the possibilities is the driving of the data set to a maximum coherence which is such a standard, such a process through which the internal contradictions, shortage of data, future-/consequence-evaluation, etc. problems and tasks could be well solved. The handling of the information set – not considering how wide range the origins are, or how heterogenic it is – is done in such way as operating within a single human mind. Initially the system on one hand automatically and on mathematical bases (based on the normal sociometric principles) is offering an order, on the other hand subjectivities are building together in such a way that they would equal themselves to the possible maximal objectivity. In the heterogenic set of all kinds of information (e.g. symptoms, diagnoses, physiological effects, drugs, view-points of psychological tests, persons, kinds of life-events, job opportunities, etc.), • if 2-5% of the relations between pairs are known, • then (with consideration of transitional conclusions and the use of other supplemental methods) EVERY relationship of the complete “chaotic hierarchy”, n-dimensional coherence-web could be given with near accuracy, • and because here everything is in connection with each other rather than in case of any questions not just the usual linear ranking could be given as an answer (“who are the winners”), but also patterns. The basics of this is that every relationship between pairs (degree and sign) can be forecasted and after that stepping over the pair connections also group-group (= pattern-pattern) comparisons could be done. (Of course the group is NOT the mechanical sum of the members.)

Advantages: Starmap helps to control and to solve situations of life: • Understand the essence and move options of a long discussion at a glance; • Aggregate the knowledge of co-workers in a given issue and use it as a common brain; • Surmount acute conflicts easily; • Find the common basis of united action for all sorts of people; • Operate direct democracy, in order to make clear-cut the mass of individual contributions and strengthen indeed the best during selection; • Understand impartially even a complicated situation of personal life and make a good decision; • Provide creative versatility and thought development during consultations or go the other way, compare viewpoints of a live discussion continuously to an expert database; • Utilize synthesized knowledge of specialized textbook; • Explore the hidden knowledge of databases: bring to surface formerly unknown correlations and patterns.
