Locally computed statistics of image texture and a case-based reasoning (CBR) systemwere evaluated for mapping of forest attributes. Cluster analysis was preferred to regression models, as a pre-selection method of features. The best stand-based accuracy using satellite sensor images was 74.64 m 3 ha 1 (36%) RMSE for stand volume, 1.98 m 3 ha 1 a 1 (49%) for annual increase in stand volume, whe...

In this paper we will present a design model (in the sense of KADS) for the domain of technical diagnosis. Based on this we will describe the fully implemented expert system shell MOLTKE 3.0, which integrates common knowledge acquisition methods with techniques developed in the fields of Model-Based Diagnosis and Machine Learning, especially Case-Based Reasoning.
