Abstract
Machine Understanding is the term introduced by authors to denote understanding by a machine and is referring to the new area of research the aim of which is to investigate the possibility of building the machine with the ability to understand. A new research area such as machine understanding needs the framework within which the problems will be formulated and solved and the machine, in order to be able to understand, needs to imitate the way in which humans understand the world and the language (text). Machine understanding that denotes understanding by the machine (shape understanding system—SUS) stresses the dependence of learning and understanding processes. In this chapter machine understanding is defined in the context of both human understanding and the existing systems that can be called understanding systems.
