Abductive reasoning in multiple fault diagnosis

Fault Diagnosis of Telecommunication Networks : Realistic Abductive Reasoning Approach

In this paper, we propose a method to diagnose the faults in the telecommunication networks by using the Realistic Abductive Reasoning Model 1]. This model uses abductive inference mechanism based on the parsimonious covering theory with some new features added to the general model of diagnostic problem solving. The fault diagnosis knowledge is assumed to be represented in the form of causal ch...

Network Fault Diagnosis Using Realistic Abductive Reasoning Model

In this paper, we propose a method to solve the network fault diagnosis problem using the realistic abductive reasoning model. This model uses abductive inference mechanism based on the parsimonious covering theory and adds some new features to the general model of diagnostic problem solving. The network fault diagnosis knowledge is assumed to be represented in the form of causal chaining, name...

Abductive Reasoning with Description Logics: Use Case in Medical Diagnosis

Ontologies have been increasingly used as a core representation formalism in medical information systems. Diagnosis is one of the highly relevant reasoning problems in this domain. In recent years this problem has captured attention also in the description logics community and various proposals on formalising abductive reasoning problems and their computational support appeared. In this paper, ...

Qualitative Reasoning in Electronic Fault Diagnosis

This paper describes some work in progress aimed at developing an expert system for fault diagnosis on switching mode power supplies. The system being developed is designed to interface with some existing automatic test equipment. Results of tests from this test equipment are the main input to the expert system. Another input is information about signals at various points in the circuit under t...
