**TLDR:** The approach of transforming facts, relationships, and rules about the world into machine-processable structures.

<p>For a system to behave intelligently, it is not enough for it to see data; it must also be able to store and organize that data in a meaningful structure. Knowledge representation addresses exactly this problem. It transforms facts, relationships, rules, and concepts about the world into forms that machines can process. These representations may take the form of logical expressions, rule systems, graph structures, probabilistic models, or vector spaces. The right choice depends on the nature of the problem being solved. Without strong knowledge representation, strong reasoning is difficult, because the system cannot reliably manage what it knows or how that knowledge is structured.</p>
