What is AI?
A machine with the ability to perform cognitive functions such as perceiving, learning, reasoning and solve problems are deemed to hold an artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence exists when a machine…
CYC
· CYC is an example of a frame-based representational system of knowledge, which is, in a way, the opposite of an expert system. Whereas an expert system has detailed knowledge of…
CLIPS (C Language Integrated Production System)
· CLIPS is a freely available expert system shell that has been implemented in C. · It provides a language for expressing rules and mainly uses forward chaining to derive conclusions from…
Expert System Architecture
An expert system is a set of programs that manipulate encoded knowledge to solve problems in a specialized domain that normally requires human expertise. An expert system’s knowledge is obtained…
Knowledge Organization and Management
The advantage of using structured knowledge representation schemes (frames, associative networks, or object-oriented structures) over unstructured ones (rules or FOPL clauses) should be understood and appreciated at this point. Structured…
Matching techniques
Matching is the process of comparing two or more structures to discover their likenesses or differences. The structures may represent a wide range of objects including physical entities, words or…
Propositional Logic
· There are a number of possible systems of logic. · The system we have been examining so far is called propositional logic. · The language that is used to express propositional logic…
Simulated Annealing
· Annealing is a process of producing very strong glass or metal, which involves heating the material to a very high temperature and then allowing it to cool very slowly. · In…
Constraint Satisfaction Search
· Search can be used to solve problems that are limited by constraints, such as the eightqueens problem. Such problems are often known as Constraint Satisfaction Problems, or CSPs. I · n…
