As research on using the IME model for the cognitive analysis of data con-
stantly progresses, an improved model which contains one more element - intelli-
gence - has been created.

The
Information-Matter-Energy + Intelligence (IME+I) model -
adding the
component called intelligence to the IME model represents an extremely impor-
tant stage in work to build a cognitive information model. The perceived physical
world and the invisible world of the abstract are linked not just by information,
but also by intelligence which lies at the border of these two completely different
realms. This is because intelligence is described as an element of human nature,
but is also a notion defined in a very concrete way, so it is a notion coming from
the physical world. The difficulty in unambiguously defining and placing intelli-
gence in the natural world is a problem that cannot be solved as there is ambigu-
ity in defining the areas of the abstract and the physical world.
The analysed IME+I cognitive information model (presented in Figure 2.2) in-
dicates the phenomenon of two-stage data analysis using the available intelli-
gence, both human and automatic, the latter founded only and exclusively on
structures of human intelligence models.

Intelligence, presented in Figure 2.2., is understood as the ability of humans or
systems to interpret and analyse information and to automatically combine infor-
mation elements coming from the abstract world, such as: data, information,
knowledge, experience. It serves as a connection through which data is transmitted
and transferred between information, matter and energy.
