A lot of expert systems have been developed in the area of medical diagnosis and prescription, but there has been relatively little effort to develop medical expert systems using domestic technologies. In this paper, a medical expert system for gastroenteritis is developed, which can be easily used on the Internet. This system is implemented using Java technologies and Jess, which is a Java expert system shell. Therefore. the system can be used independently from a specific platform on the Internet. In addition, facts and rules of a knowledge base in the system ate represented separately making the system updatable and expandable with ease.

Rule-based paradigm is one of the principal types of software process modeling and enaction approaches, as they provide formality and flexibility sufficient to handle complex processes. However, the systems adopting rule-based paradigms are hard to define and understand process models, and their inference engine should be modified or redeveloped at worst according to the change of process language. In this paper, we describe a rule-based PSEE(Process-Centered Software Engineering Environment) PRAiSE that solves the above limitations of existing rule-based PSEEs as well as maintains the merits of rule-based paradigm such as the ability to incorporate the nature of software processes flexibly in which dynamic changes and parallelism are pervasive and prevalent. PRAiSE provides RAiSE, a graphical Process modeling language, and defined process models are interpreted and enacted by process engine implemented using CLiPS, a rule based expert system tool.

Because of the recent interest in the u-Health and development of IT technology, a need of utilizing a medical information data has been increased. Among previous studies that utilize various data mining algorithms for processing medical information data, there are studies of association rule analysis. In the studies, an association between the symptoms with specified diseases is the target to discover, however, infrequent terms which can be important information for a disease diagnosis are not considered in most cases. In this paper, we proposed a new association rule mining system considering the importance of each term using TF-IDF weight to consider infrequent but important items. In addition, the proposed system can predict candidate diagnoses from medical text records using term similarity analysis based on medical ontology.

An expert system was developed for the stress diagnosis of cucumber and tomato using FoxPro. The principle points in building the system were integration with Korean, effective processing of mass information, and easy access for non-experts such as farmers. The method of inferencing was forward chaining based on pattern matching. Knowledge base was expressed with IF∼THEN rules and was expressed in the form of tree. Also, the expert system was designed so that additions and modifications of all information could easily be performed on windows. The results tested by farmers with the developed system showed that the expert system was reliable for the practical use. It was expected the expert system could be directly applied to the stress diagnosis of other vegetable plants by modifying only data bases.

There are more than five dozen different RP(rapid prototyping) systems in the world and they are fairly expensive. All those systems have different capabilities and requirements in that each of them gives different tolerance, application field and part strength, etc. This situation may cause a problem of selecting an appropriate RP system. This paper presents an expert system, utilizing an algorithm that is composed up of rules to derive recommendations and answers to queries of the RP users. The expert system incorporates RP machines commercially available and adopts multi-selection criteria, namely, machine price, accuracy, build size, adopted process, etc. In the expert system, forward reasoning method is adopted and external spreadsheet for sub-data of the RP systems is used. The rules and knowledge are obtained from interviews and discussions with RP vendors and users, appropriate research publications and other reference materials.

Rule-based knowledge representHtion is, the most popular technique for ,storage and manipulation of domain knowledge in expert system. By the way, the amount of knowledge increases more and more in this representatiun technique, it, relationship becomes complex, and even its contents can be modified. This is the reason why rule-based knowledge representation technique requires a verification ,system which can maintain consistency and completeness of knowledge base. This paper is to propose a verification system for consistency and completeness of knowledge base to promote the efficiency and reliability of expert system. After verifying the potential errors both in structure and in semantics whenever a new rule is added, this system renders knowledge base consistent and complete by correcting them automatically or by making expert correct them if it fails.

추론엔진과 지식베이스를 기반으로 하는 전문가 시스템은 사용목적에 맞게 구성되며,인간의 사고 방식을 모방한 컴퓨터가 올바른 해를 도출시키도록 하는데 궁극적인 목표가 있다. 즉, 추론의 효율성이 전문가 시스템의 효율성을 좌우한다. 시스템이 어떠한 목적을 갖는가에 따라서, 추론 방법과 지식표현 방법등이 결정된다. 최근 추론의 효율성을 극대화하기 위해 이용되고 있는 지식표현 및 추론 방법으로는 Rete, TREAT 등의 트리 표현을 사용하는 전향추론, 관계리스트를 사용하는 직접추론 등이 있다. 전문가 시스템의 성능은 추론을 얼마나 효율적이고 정확하게 하는지에 따라 좌우된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 추론의 효율성이 지식베이스의 구축형태와 밀접한 관련을 이용하여 효율적인 추론 엔진을 구성하였다. 지식의 표준화가 모듈화가 쉬운 생성규칙을 사용하여 지식을 표현하였으며 , 사용자의 요구에 의해 전향추론, 후향추론이 수행되도록 하였다. 본 논문에서는 추론을 효율적으로 하기위한 기본 방법중, 지식표현을 보다 더 효과적으로 구축하는 방법을 택하였다. 기존의 지식표현방법을 살펴보고, 이를 기반으로 새로운 지시표현 방법인 ECBM(extedned clause bit matrix)과 ERCBM(extended clause bit matrix)을 제안하고 이를 이용하여 전향추론, 후향추혼이 가능한 추론엔진을 구축하였으며 이 두 지식표현을 이용하여 구축되어진 추론엔진을 비교하였다. 이 추론엔진은 기존에 시스템과는 달리 전향, 후향이 모두 효율적으로 수행되어지며, 모든 지식에 대해 적용이 가능한 강력한 범용성을 갖고 있다.

In the conduct of this study, a web-enabled healthcare system for the management of hypertension was implemented through a hyperlink-based inference approach. The hyperlink-based inference platform was implemented using the hypertext capacity of HTML which ensured accessibility, multimedia facilities, fast response, stability, ease of use and upgrade, and platform independency of expert systems. Many HTML documents, which are hyperlinked to each other based on expert rules, were uploaded beforehand to perform the hyperlink-based inference. The HTML documents were uploaded and maintained automatically by our proprietary tool called the Web-Based Inference System (WeBIS) that supports a graphical user interface (GUI) for the input and edit of decision graphs. Nevertheless, the editing task of the decision graph using the GUI tool is a time consuming and tedious chore when the knowledge engineer must perform it manually. Accordingly, this research implemented an automatic generator of the decision graph for the management of hypertension. As a result, this research suggests a methodology for the development of Web-enabled healthcare systems using the hyperlink-based inference approach and, as an example, implements a Web-enabled healthcare system for hypertension, a platform which performed especially well in the areas of speed and stability.
