On the Notion of Similarity in Case-Based Reasoning
نویسنده
چکیده
The semantics of similarity measures is studied and reduced to the evidence theory of Dempster and Shafer. Applications are given for classification and configuration, the latter uses utility theory in addition. In: Mathematical and Statistical Methods in Artificial Intelligence (eds. G. della Riccia, R. Kruse, R. Viertl), Springer Verlag 1995, pp. 171-184

Improving Agent Performance for Multi-Resource Negotiation Using Learning Automata and Case-Based Reasoning
In electronic commerce markets, agents often should acquire multiple resources to fulfil a high-level task. In order to attain such resources they need to compete with each other. In multi-agent environments, in which competition is involved, negotiation would be an interaction between agents in order to reach an agreement on resource allocation and to be coordinated with each other. In recent ...
متن کاملComprehensive Decision Modeling of Reverse Logistics System: A Multi-criteria Decision Making Model by using Hybrid Evidential Reasoning Approach and TOPSIS (TECHNICAL NOTE)
In the last two decades, product recovery systems have received increasing attention due to several reasons such as new governmental regulations and economic advantages. One of the most important activities of these systems is to assign returned products to suitable reverse manufacturing alternatives. Uncertainty of returned products in terms of quantity, quality, and time complicates the decis...
متن کاملVisio-Spatial Case-Based Reasoning: A Case Study in Prediction of Protein Structure
We show that visio-spatial representations and reasoning can be used as a similarity metric for case-based protein structure prediction. Our system retrieves pairs of α-helices based on contact map similarity, then transfers and adapts the structure information to an unknown helix pair. We show that similar protein contact maps predict a similar three-dimensional protein structure. The success ...
متن کاملUsing Symbolic Similarity to Explain Case-based Reasoning in Classification Tasks
The explanation of the results is a key point of automatic problem solvers. CBR systems solve a new problem by assessing its similarity with already solved cases and they commonly show the user the set of cases that have been assessed as the most similar to the new problem. Using the notion of symbolic similarity, our proposal is to show the user a symbolic description that makes explicit what ...
متن کاملT-Air: A Case-Based Reasoning System for Designing Chemical Absorption Plants
In this paper we describe a case-based reasoning application developed for aiding engineers in the design of chemical absorption plants. Based on the notion of flow sheet, the paper describes how the application uses a highly structured representation of cases and similarity criteria based on chemical knowledge for designing solutions following an interactive case-based reasoning approach.
