Development and Verification of Rule Based Systems - A Survey of Developers
نویسنده
چکیده
While there is great interest in rule based systems and their development, there is little data about the tools and methods used and the issues facing the development of these systems. To address this deficiency, this paper presents the results from a survey of developers of rule based systems. The results from the survey give an overview of the methods and tools used for development and the major issues hindering the development of rule based systems. Recommendations for possible future research directions are presented. The results point to verification and validation, debugging and overall tool support as the main issues negatively affecting the development of rule based systems. Further a lack of methodologies that appropriately support developers of these systems was found.

Entailment Calculus as a Logical Tool for Reasoning Rule Generation and Verification
A common inadequacy of current knowledge-based systems is that they cannot reason about those situations and/or problems that have not been considered by their developers. A major cause of this inadequacy is that the system cannot automatically generate new and valid reasoning rules from those existing rules and facts that are programmed or inputted in the systems by their developers or users. ...

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...
