Research on new creative conceptual design system using adapted case-based reasoning technique

Creative conceptual design requires significant previous design knowledge. Case-based reasoning enables learning from previous design experience and has a great potential in supporting creative conceptual design by means of seeking to retrieve, reuse, and revise most appropriate cases to generate inspired solutions. However, traditional case-based reasoning based creative conceptual design mode...

Cautious analogical-proportion based reasoning using qualitative conceptual relations

Propositional rule bases may be incomplete in the sense that some situations of interest are not explicitly covered by any of their rules. While logical deduction does not produce meaningful results in such a case, a variety of methods have been proposed to derive plausible conclusions about a given situation, by comparing it with similar or analogous situations that are explicitly covered by a...

A Conceptual model on the pharmacogenomics implementation complications: An applied qualitative research based on national drug policy components

Introduction: Pharmacogenomics may well have substantial effects on the clinical, economic and regulatory aspects of health sector; which can lead to complications in access. Therefore, there is a need for evidence-based frameworks based on national drug policy components. The objective of the current study is to identify pharmacogenomics-based complications and develop a conceptual model. Mate...

Qualitative Reasoning about Incomplete Categorization Rules Based on Interpolation and Extrapolation in Conceptual Spaces

Various forms of commonsense reasoning may be used to cope with situations where insufficient knowledge is available for a given purpose. In this paper, we rely on such a strategy to complete sets of symbolic categorization rules, starting from background information about the semantic relationship of different properties and concepts. Our solution is based on Gärdenfors conceptual spaces, whic...
