Description of Network Features
The following table summarizes information about the network nodes in the basic KARMA example corresponding to features (in target and source domains).

FEATURE NAME* DESCRIPTION POSSIBLE VALUES
TARGET DOMAIN
DIFF difficulty Present, Absent
EC_STATE economic state Recession, No_Growth, Low_Growth, Mod_Growth, High_Growth
ASPECT aspectual status Ready, Starting, Ongoing, Suspended, Finishing, Done, Stopped, Canceled (corresponding to the standard controller graph for aspect)
IN_CONTROL Whether the actor is in control of the policy/state True, False
POL_EVAL policy evaluation information that can be inferred from the input Good, Bad
GOAL goal of the policy Unregulated_freetrade, Protectionism
OUTCOME the outcome of the policy Succeed, Fail
PROG_AMT amount of progress made at different stages None, Low, Med, High
ACTOR economic actor IG (Indian Government), US, FRANCE, GERMANY
POLICY The type of Economic Policy followed Liberalization, Protectionism
PROG_RATE Rate of Progress in Policy None, Low, Med, High
PROG_DIR Policy Direction Forward (toward Goal), Backward (away from Goal), Sideways (Tangential)
SOURCE DOMAIN
OBSTACLE obstacle (blocking motion on path) Present, Absent
LOC Location Hole, Stable (on stable ground), Slippery, Uphill
PAT_STATE patient health state Healthy, Diseased
CONTROLLER_STATE aspectual status (same as controller graph nodes)
STABILIZE recover stability (x-schema) True, False
EXPEND_ENERGY expend energy Low, Med, High
UNSTABLE unstable False, True
FALL fall (x-schema) False, True (x-schema selection)
DISTANCE distance (x-schema parameter) Tiny, Small, Med, Large, Giant
MOVER mover, trajector of motion x-schema role
MOTION presence of motion Present, Absent
TREATMENT quality of treatment Good, Bad
speed speed (x-schema parameter) slow-, slow, med, high, high+
DIRECTION direction (x-schema parameter) forward, backward, sideways
*Target features have nodes corresponding to three time steps. Links between time steps correspond to temporal persistence links.

The following table summarizes information about the network nodes in the basic KARMA example corresponding to active metaphors.

METAPHORS ** DESCRIPTION
OBSTACLES_ARE_DIFFICULTIES Event Structure Metaphor
LOCATIONS_ARE_STATES same as above
PAT_STATE_IS_EC_STATE Economies are usually viewed as patients and the state of the economy as the state of the patient (from the Health Source Domain)
CONTROL_IS_CONTROL (ACT) Control of one's bodily motions in the source domain are mapped to control of the policy of action.
FALL_IS_FAIL Event Structure Metaphor
DISTANCE(forw)_IS_PROG_AMT Event Structure Metaphor
ACTORS_ARE_MOVERS Event Structure Metaphor
MOTION_IS_ACTION Event Structure Metaphor
TREAT_TYPE_IS POLICY Health domain metaphor that seems quite productive in economics. Can be used to specify evaluation of policies, assign responsibility/blame, etc.
PROG_RATE_IS_SPEED Event Structure Metaphor
POL(dir)_IS_MOTION (dir) Event Structure Metaphor
**All metaphors are either active or inactive during processing.
