Rule reduction for efficient inferencing in similarity based reasoning

Rule reduction for efficient inferencing in similarity based reasoning

The two most important models of inferencing in approximate reasoning with fuzzy sets are Zadeh’s Compositional Rule of Inference (CRI) and Similarity Based Reasoning (SBR). It is known that inferencing in the above models is resource consuming (both memory and time), since these schemes often consist of discretisation of the input and output spaces followed by computations in each point. Also ...

Efficient Rule-Based Inferencing for OWL EL

We review recent results on inferencing for SROEL(×), a description logic that subsumes the main features of the W3C recommendation OWL EL. Rule-based deduction systems are developed for various reasoning tasks and logical sublanguages. Certain feature combinations lead to increased space upper bounds for materialisation, suggesting that efficient implementations are easier to obtain for suitab...

Robust Reasoning: Integrating Rule-Based and Similarity-Based Reasoning

A Margin-based Model with a Fast Local Searchnewline for Rule Weighting and Reduction in Fuzzynewline Rule-based Classification Systems

Fuzzy Rule-Based Classification Systems (FRBCS) are highly investigated by researchers due to their noise-stability and  interpretability. Unfortunately, generating a rule-base which is sufficiently both accurate and interpretable, is a hard process. Rule weighting is one of the approaches to improve the accuracy of a pre-generated rule-base without modifying the original rules. Most of the pro...

Rule-based Inferencing System for Infertility Diagnosis in Women

Childlessness among married couples is a rising problem in India. One of the major factors of childlessness is due to being infertile of either one or both of wife or husband. Infertility refers to the failure of a couple to become pregnant after one year of regular unprotected sexual intercourse. Infertility is a life crisis with invisible losses, and its consequences are manifold. This paper ...
