A Prototype Expert System For Making Bail Recommendations
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract: The state has multiple interests in the quality of bail decisions. Previous papers (Hassett, 1991, 1990) explored the issue of whether computer technology, specifically expert systems technology, could contribute to improving the quality of pretrial release / detention decisions. Subsequently a prototype expert system which makes bail recommendations was developed using the XiPlus expert system shell. This paper documents the process by which the prototype was developed, identifies the capacities and limitations of the prototype, and suggests how the bail expert system project might be carried forward.
