I have one question,

In the paper *Pursuing the Goal Of Language Understanding, *you proposed

: VivoMind approach:
: Encode graph structure and ontology in a Cognitive Signature™.
: Find the closest matching signatures in logarithmic time.
: Use structure mapping only on a very small number of graphs

As my understanding, you build an index for conceptual graphs. Does this
method works for sub-graph matching?
