Associate Memory-Based Reasoning: How to Represent and Retrieve Cases
نویسنده
چکیده
It is widely accepted that deduction, induction and analogy are quite differen forms of reasoning and that is why they are studied separately. We believe tha from a computational point of view deduction, induction and analogy are only slightly different versions of an uniform reasoning process. We shall make an attempt at exploring this process and showing a possible way of reasoning in human problem solving that we call associative aeaory-based reasoning. Once again a special emphasis will be placed on the importance of experience for human thinking and for this reason we shall study in more detail the representation of cases. The crucial role of the retrieving process in reasoning will be revealed and this aspect of the reasoning process will be considered extensively.

The case-based reasoning paradigm models how reuse of stored experiences contributes to expertise. In a case-based problem-solver, new problems are solved by retrieving stored information about previous problem-solving episodes and adapting it to suggest solutions to the new problems. The results are then themselves added to the reasoner's memory in new cases for future use. Despite this emphas...

Case-based reasoning (CBR) can be defined as the task of solving a new problem by remembering a previous related situation and of course reusing information and knowledge of that situation. Using a CBR system in structural health monitoring saves both time and money because accidents such as bridge collapses can be avoided. CBR systems also are used e.g. for medical support, credit decision tas...

Case-based Reasoning (CBR), a method of analogical reasoning which is common and extremely important in human cognition, has only recently emerged as a major reasoning methodology. CBR involves solving new problems by identifying and adapting solutions to similar problems stored in a library of past experiences. The important steps in the inference cycle of CBR are to retrieve cases from the li...
