New to OpenCOG, chatbot issues

[Randy Deborggraeve]

Hello,

I'm new to opencog. I picked up an old hobby while ago to play with electronics/robotics.
As main platform i'm using ROS, so now i want to make my robot a bit smarter ;)

As i already implemented TTS & speech recognition to my ROS stack, i want my robot be able to understand and answer, so finally i found my way to opencog.

So far i installed all dependencies by installing the packages or install from source.
Also the cogutil, atomspace, moses, opencog are git cloned, build and installed.

Running the chatbot:
~/Workspaces/opencog/relex(master)$ ./opencog-server.sh
~/Workspaces/opencog/opencog/build(master)$ guile -l ../opencog/nlp/chatbot/run-chatbot.scm
~/Workspaces/opencog/opencog/build(master)$ ./opencog/nlp/irc/cogita --nick chatbot-randy

So when i join the chat channel to talk to the bot, or just run the guile (process-query "randy" "message") commands, i get the same result.
When i first started, i always got the answer that the bot did not know the answer.
Yesterday i updated all git repo's and retried, but now with different result. The answer is always a list of all messages i typed ...

<randy_> Are u a bot?
<chatbot-randy> Hello randy_, you said: "Are u a bot?"
 You made a Declarative SpeechAct
<randy_> Tom eats apples.
<chatbot-randy> Hello randy_, you said: "Tom eats apples."
 You made a Declarative SpeechAct
<randy_> What does Tom eat?
<chatbot-randy> Hello randy_, you said: "What does Tom eat?"
 You made an Interrogative SpeechAct
 (Tom eats apples . what does Tom eat ?)
<randy_> John threw the ball
<chatbot-randy> Hello randy_, you said: "John threw the ball"
 You made a Declarative SpeechAct
<randy_> who threw the ball?
<chatbot-randy> Hello randy_, you said: "who threw the ball?"
 You made an Interrogative SpeechAct
 (Tom eats apples . what does Tom eat ? John threw the ball who threw the ball ?)


Any help to get started with this and get it working would be welcome.
I have lot of c++ experience, so if i need to dig into the code to get this solved is not an issue, just need to find where to get started

Kind regards,
Randy
