As of version 1.4, the iKnow engine produces Concept-Relation-Concept clusters, aka "CRC's".

A CRC is a basic knowledge unit, linking two concepts together. CRC detection can be used to filter large text corpora. CRC's have a textual "normalized" representation (the "index" value) in the interface, for ease of handling.
Using the Python interface, this is how it looks like :

Input text:
This is a test of the Python interface to the iKnow engine.

Index:
{'proximity': [((3, 5), 64), ((5, 7), 64), ((3, 7), 42)],
 'sentences': [{'crcs': [{'head': 'test',
                          'relation': 'of',
                          'tail': 'python interface'},
                         {'head': 'python interface',
                          'relation': 'to',
                          'tail': 'iknow engine'}],
