This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite its increasing importance, the verification and validation of the human-machine interface is perhaps the most overlooked aspect of system development. Although much has been written about the design and developmentprocess, very little organized information is available on how to verifyand validate highly complex and highly coupled dynamic systems. Inability toevaluate such systems adequately may become the limiting factor in our ability to employ systems that our technology and knowledge allow us to design. This volume, based on a NATO Advanced Science Institute held in 1992, is designed to provide guidance for the verification and validation of all highly complex and coupled systems. Air traffic control isused an an example to ensure that the theory is described in terms that will allow its implementation, but the results can be applied to all complex and coupled systems. The volume presents the knowledge and theory ina format that will allow readers from a wide variety of backgrounds to apply it to the systems for which they are responsible. The emphasis is on domains where significant advances have been made in the methods of identifying potential problems and in new testing methods and tools. Also emphasized are techniques to identify the assumptions on which a system is built and to spot their weaknesses.

Download or read book Maintenance of Knowledge based Systems written by Frans Coenen and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practical take-up of Knowledge Based Systems (KBSs) is usually described as disappointing. One explanation of the reluctance of organisations to make a real commitment to these systems stems from the lack of well-defined techniques to engineer them in an acceptable manner. Without the assurance of quality that can be given by the use of a proven methodology, the risk of investing substantially in these systems will remain a risk too great to be taken. One of the chief manifestations of the lack of these techniques is that it is impossible to say with any assurance that it will be possible to maintain the systems so that their useful life can be extended. This book is concerned with the maintenance of KBSs, providing a balance between the academic and the practical, and containing analysis of tools developed in a research project. The intention of the book is to move from very general concerns available to all systems through to specific techniques and tools designed to address particular problems in particular representations, before concluding with some more general remarks. This book is essential reading for anyone, whether in a commercial or academic environment who wishes to build a serious Knowledge Based System that will continue to be used over a period of time. * SPECIAL FEATURES: * Building a Knowledge Based System is not the end of the story: the system must be used, and during its period of use, theknoledge on which it relies will change and develop. A Knowledge Based Ssystem that is not to become rapidly obselete must change and develop with it. * This book addresses this neglected area of maintenance, emhasising the specific maintenance tasks required by a Knowledge Based System. * The book provides a balance between the academic and the practical, and containg analysis of tools developed in a research project.
Download or read book Validation and Verification of Knowledge Based Systems written by Anca Vermesan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge-based (KB) technology is being applied to complex problem-solving and critical tasks in many application domains. Concerns have naturally arisen as to the dependability of knowledge-based systems (KBS). As with any software, attention to quality and safety must be paid throughout development of a KBS and rigorous verification and validation (V&V) techniques must be employed. Research in V&V of KBS has emerged as a distinct field only in the last decade and is intended to address issues associated with quality and safety aspects of KBS and to credit such applications with the same degree of dependability as conventional applications. In recent years, V&V of KBS has been the topic of annual workshops associated with the main AI conferences, such as AAAI, IJACI and ECAI. Validation and Verification of Knowledge Based Systems contains a collection of papers, dealing with all aspects of KBS V&V, presented at the Fifth European Symposium on Verification and Validation of Knowledge Based Systems and Components (EUROVAV'99 - which was held in Oslo in the summer of 1999, and was sponsored by Det Norske Veritas and the British Computer Society's Specialist Group on Expert Systems (SGES).

Download or read book Enhancing the Knowledge Engineering Process written by Luc Steels and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1992 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1983, the Commission of the European Communities launched an ambitious 10 year programme in information technology called ESPRIT: European Strategic Programme for Research and Development in Information Technology. The papers in this volume focus on the contributions of the second phase of the programme, ESPRIT II, to the area of knowledge engineering, and more specifically, on the trend towards more disciplined knowledge engineering methodologies. An attempt has been made to establish a coherent volume that will act as a lasting reference source for experts in the field. This has lead to a focus on a small number of projects and topics. Further, contributions have been sourced primarily from those that have established a significant advance in respect of the international state of the art, without losing sight of practical realisability and industrial acceptance. The book captures work centering around the concept of knowledge-level modelling and its use in structuring the complete life-cycle, validating expert systems, acquiring knowledge, enhancing capabilities and achieving genericity and re-use. It shows the high quality and the advanced nature of the research currently being undertaken and indicates that important innovations of extreme relevance to the industry have been achieved. However, further research and advanced development clearly continues to be needed because the European information technology has far from reached the level of competitiveness required to acquire a greater international market share. It is hoped this publication will play an important role in this movement forwards.

Download or read book Foundations of Deductive Databases and Logic Programming written by Jack Minker and published by Morgan Kaufmann Publishers. This book was released on 1988 with total page 760 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foundations of Deductive Databases and Logic Programming focuses on the foundational issues concerning deductive databases and logic programming. The selection first elaborates on negation in logic programming and towards a theory of declarative knowledge. Discussions focus on model theory of stratified programs, fixed point theory of nonmonotonic operators, stratified programs, semantics for negation in terms of special classes of models, relation between closed world assumption and the completed database, negation as a failure, and closed world assumption. The book then takes a look at negation as failure using tight derivations for general logic programs, declarative semantics of logic programs with negation, and declarative semantics of deductive databases and logic programs. The publication tackles converting AND-control to OR-control by program transformation, optimizing dialog, equivalences of logic programs, unification, and logic programming and parallel complexity. Topics include parallelism and structured and unstructured data, parallel algorithms and complexity, solving equations, most general unifiers, systems of equations and inequations, equivalences of logic programs, and optimizing recursive programs. The selection is a valuable source of data for researchers interested in pursuing further studies on the foundations of deductive databases and logic programming.
Download or read book Artificial Intelligence Methods in the Environmental Sciences written by Sue Ellen Haupt and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-11-28 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can environmental scientists and engineers use the increasing amount of available data to enhance our understanding of planet Earth, its systems and processes? This book describes various potential approaches based on artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, including neural networks, decision trees, genetic algorithms and fuzzy logic. Part I contains a series of tutorials describing the methods and the important considerations in applying them. In Part II, many practical examples illustrate the power of these techniques on actual environmental problems. International experts bring to life ways to apply AI to problems in the environmental sciences. While one culture entwines ideas with a thread, another links them with a red line. Thus, a “red thread“ ties the book together, weaving a tapestry that pictures the ‘natural’ data-driven AI methods in the light of the more traditional modeling techniques, and demonstrating the power of these data-based methods.
