CBR as a Framework for Design: Augmenting CBR with other AI Techniques
نویسنده
چکیده
Design is an activity in which the role of experience plays a larger part in the generation of alternative designs than theoretical or formal knowledge. This has lead to increasing interest in CBR as a way of assisting and/or automating portions of the design process. However, there are major areas in the CBR paradigm that do not address the needs of practical CBR. Here CBR is presented as a framework for design, with other AI techniques supporting different aspects of CBR. Specifically, knowledge discovery is used to assist in the development of CBR knowledge and genetic algorithms in the generation of design solutions.

A Combined Expert System/case-based Reasoning Approach for Cogeneration Plant Design
The paper deals with the design problem of natural gas cogeneration systems. Despite its complexity, this design problem subjected to several constraints is properly solved by humans, which suggests the use of artificial intelligence (AI). Moreover, the design process is strongly based on knowledge that experts have in a domain, so that the AI techniques known as knowledge-based systems (KBS) a...

Case-based Reasoning (CBR) is an Artificial Intelligence (AI) paradigm that attempts to solve new problems based on its past experiences of solving similar problems. Due to the intrinsic similarity of CBR with human reasoning process, it is used for automated problem-solving. The effectiveness of CBR can be enhanced by combining it with other AI techniques. One such approach is the inclusion of...

Resilient modulus and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) in unbound granular materials are the key technical characteristics of layers in a flexible pavement design. Among the factors affecting these two parameters, the aggregate gradation is the most important. Using particle size distribution curve developed by AASHTO, together with other considerations mentioned in the related regulations have y...
متن کاملRelating Case-Based Problem Solving and Learning Methods to Task and Domain Characteristics: Towards an Analytic Framework
A particular strength of case-based reasoning (CBR) over most other methods is its inherent combination of problem solving with sustained learning through problem solving experience. This is therefore a particularly important topic of study, and an issue that has now become mature enough to be addressed in a more systematic way. To enable such an analysis of problem solving and learning, we hav...
