A Knowledge Engineering Primer

Knowledge can take different forms. We distinguish between declarative knowledge (knowing something) or procedural knowledge (knowing how, know-how), sensorimotor knowledge (riding a bicycle), and affective knowledge (deep understanding). The classic definition of knowledge derived from philosophy defines knowledge as a justified true belief. It can be said to occur in situations where we consider something to be objectively "true" or "stated". Another definition refers to what is "explicit knowledge" that is something that is known and can be written down [30].
