'''Semantic AI (formerly Semantic Research, Inc.)''' is a privately held [[software]] company headquartered in [[San Diego, California]] with offices in the National Capitol Region.  Semantic AI is a Delaware C-corporation that offers patented, graph-based knowledge discovery, analysis and visualization software technology.<ref>{{US patent reference | number = 8,700,555 | issue-date = April 15, 2014 | inventor = Murphy, et al. | title = Systems and methods for pairing of a semantic network and a knowledge sharing repository}}</ref><ref>{{US patent reference | number = 9,298,702 | issue-date = March 29, 2016 | inventor = Faletti, et al. | title = Systems and methods for pairing of a semantic network and a natural language processing information extraction system }}</ref> Its original product is a link analysis [[software application]] called Semantica Pro, and it introduced a web-based analytical environment called the Cortex Enterprise Intelligence Platform, or Cortex EIP.

== History ==
The SEMANTICA platform was originally conceived as a method to help biology students learn and retain knowledge about complex organic structures. Joe Faletti, Kathleen Fisher, and several colleagues in the [[University of California|University of California system]] created SemNet, a computer program used to draw a network of "concepts" connected to each other by "relations".<ref>{{cite web|title=Online SemNet Tutorial|url=http://naturalsciences.sdsu.edu/tutorial.html|accessdate=17 May 2017}}</ref> In the late 1960s, Ross Quillian and Allan Collins used the concept of [[semantic networks]] as a way of talking about the organization of human semantic memory, or memory for inter-related word concepts.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Fisher|first1=Kathleen M|chapter=SemNet: A Tool for Personal Knowledge Construction |editor1-last=Kommers|editor1-first=P.A.M.|editor2-last=Jonassen|editor2-first=D.H.|editor3-last=Mayes|editor3-first=J.T.|editor4-last=Ferreira|editor4-first=A.|title=Cognitive Tools for Learning|date=1992|volume=81|series=NATO ASI Series (Series F: Computer and Systems Sciences)|pages=63–75|doi=10.1007/978-3-642-77222-1_5|isbn=978-3-642-77224-5}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|author1=Gorodetsky, Malta|author2=Fisher, Kathleen M.|author3=Wyman, Barbara|title=Generating connections and learning with SemNet, a tool for constructing knowledge networks|journal=Journal of Science Education and Technology|date=1994|volume=3|issue=3|pages=137–144|doi=10.1007/BF01575176|bibcode=1994JSEdT...3..137G|s2cid=62635310}}</ref> Using SemNet, students could employ simple components to build complex networks.
