Towards a General Framework for Substitutional Adaptation in Case-Based Reasoning
نویسندگان
چکیده
Adaptation is one of the most problematic steps in the design and development of Case Based Reasoning (CBR) systems, as it may require considerable domain knowledge and involve complex knowledge engineering tasks. This paper describes a general framework for substitutional adaptation, which only requires analogical domain knowledge, very similar to the one required to define a similarity function. The approach is formally defined, and its applicability is discussed with reference to case structure and its variability. A case study focused on the adaptation of cases related to truck tyre production processes is also presented.

Using Case-Base Data to Learn Adaptation Knowledge for Design
One advantage of Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) is the relative ease of constructing and maintaining CBR systems, especially as a number of commercial CBR tools are available. However, there are areas of CBR that current tools have not yet addressed. One of these is easing or automating the acquisition of adaptation knowledge. Since tasks like design or planning typically require a significant amou...

متن کاملTowards a New Formal Model of Transformational Adaptation in Case-Based Reasoning
Although several systematic analyses of existing approaches to adaptation have been published recently, a general formal adaptation framework is still missing. This paper presents a step into the direction of developing such a formal model of transformational adaptation. The model is based on the notion of the quality of a solution to a problem, while quality is meant in a more general sense an...

This work is the second part of a general similarity-based theory of case-based reasoning (CBR), which moves CBR towards a firm theoretical foundation based on similarity-based reasoning. This paper will first examine abductive CBR and deductive CBR and propose a knowledge-based model for integrating abductive CBR and deductive CBR. It then proposes similarity-based models for rule-based and fu...
متن کاملBecoming an Expert Case-based Reasoner: Learning to Adapt Prior Cases
Experience plays an important role in the development of human expertise. One computational model of how experience affects expertise is provided by research on casebased reasoning, which examines how stored cases encapsulating traces of specific prior problem-solving episodes can be retrieved and re-applied to facilitate new problemsolving. Much progress has been made in methods for accessing ...
