A promising approach to get the benefits of neural networks and fuzzy logic is to combine them into an integrated system to merge the computational power of neural networks and the representation and reasoning properties of fuzzy logic. In this context, this paper presents a fuzzy neural network which is able to code fuzzy knowledge in the form of it-then rules in its structure. The network also provides an efficient structure not only to code knowledge, but also to support fuzzy reasoning and information processing. A learning scheme is also derived for a class of membership functions.

Case- based reasoning(CBR) offers a new approach for developing knowledge based systems. Unlike the rule-based paradigm, in which domain knowledge is encoded in the form of production rules, in the case-based approach the problem solving experience of the domain expert is encoded in the form of cases stored in a casebase(CB). CBR allows a reasoner (1) to propose solutions in domains that are not completely understood by the reasoner, (2) to evaluate solutions when no algorithmic method is available for evaluation, and (3) to interprete open-ended and ill-defined concepts. CBR also helps reasoner (4) take actions to avoid repeating past mistakes, and (5) focus its reasoning on important parts of a problem. Owing to the above advantages, CBR has successfully been applied to many kinds of problems such as design, planning, diagnosis and instruction. In this paper, I propose case-based DSS(CBDSS). CBDSS is an intelligent DSS using CBR technique. CBDSS consists of interface, case-based reasoner, maintainer, casebase management system, domain dependent CB, domain independent CB, and so on.

A hybrid artificial intelligence approach based on combining case based reasoning and neural networks is presented. The approach is designed to allow for solving blowing control of BOF(basic oxygen furnace), example of which lie at the core of steelmaking process control systems application in the steel industry. According to this hybrid approach, the system, when faced with a new problem, first retrieves similar cases and neural network is used to solve the problem. Experimental Results indicate that combining case based reasoning and neural network offers an efficient approach to solving control and prediction problem

This paper presents fuzzy Pr/T nets to represent the fuzzy production rules of a knowledge-based system in the level of first-order predicate logic. The fuzzy Pr/T nets are fuzzy extension of the Pr/T nets. Based on the fuzzy Pr/T net, we propose a fuzzy reasoning algorithm. This algorithm is much closer to human intuition and reasoning than other methods because of using the proper belief functions according to fuzzy concepts in fuzzy production rules.

The paper presents functional modelling and its application for diagnosis in nuclear power plants. Functional modelling is defined and its relevance for coping with the complexity of diagnosis in large scale systems like nuclear plants is explained. The diagnosis task is analyzed and it is demonstrated that the levels of abstraction in models for diagnosis must reflect plant knowledge about goals and functions which is represented in functional modelling. Multilevel flow modelling (MFM), which is a method for functional modelling, is introduced briefly and illustrated with a cooling system example. The use of MFM for reasoning about causes and consequences is explained in detail and demonstrated using the reasoning tool, the MFMSuite. MFM applications in nuclear power systems are described by two examples: a PWR; and an FBR reactor. The PWR example show how MFM can be used to model and reason about operating modes. The FBR example illustrates how the modelling development effort can be managed by proper strategies including decomposition and reuse.

현재까지 개발된 대부분의 규칙기반 의료 진단시스템에서는 의사들이 환자들을 진단하는데 필요한 지식을 정형화된 규칙만으로 표현해야 하기 때문에 어려움이 있으며, 시스템의 성능개선을 위해 규칙들의 수정 및 추가가 이루어져야 할 뿐 아니라, 예외적인 상황에서 진단시 문제점율 지니게 된다 본 논문에서는 일반적인 급성복통 진단을 위한 지식은 규칙으로 표현하고, 기존 규칙으로 처리할 수 없는 예외적인 급성복통 진단을 위한 지식은 사례로 표현함으로써 규칙과 사례가 서로 보완적인 역할을 할 수 있는 통합 방법을 제안한다. 또한 기존의 규칙 기반 DS-DAAP와 사레기반 추론에 의해 확장된 CDS-DAAP(Combined Diagnosis System for Diseases associated with Acute Abdominal Pain)의 비교를 통해, 제안하는 접근 방법이 진단율을 향상시킴을 보였다.

The prediction of future demand is a vital task in managing business operations. To this end, traditional approaches often focused on statistical techniques such as exponential smoothing and moving average. The need for better accuracy has led to nonlinear techniques such as neural networks and case based reasoning. In addition, experimental design techniques such as orthogonal arrays may be used to assist in the formulation of an effective methodology. This paper investigates a multistrategy approach involving neural nets, case based reasoning, and orthogonal arrays. Neural nets and case based reasoning are employed both separately and in combination, while orthoarrays are used to determine the best architecture for each approach. The comparative evaluation is performed in the context of an application relating to the prediction of Treasury notes.

Recently, personal robots and home robots are developing by many companies and research groups. It is considered that a general effective interface for user of those robots is speech or voice. In this paper, Japanese speech based man-machine interface system is discussed for reflecting the fuzziness of natural language on robots, by using fuzzy reasoning. The present system consists of the derivation part of action command and the modification part of the derived command. In particular, a unique problem of Japanese is solved by applying the morphological analyzer ChaSen. The proposed system is applied for the motion control of a robot manipulator. It is proved from the experimental results that the proposed system can easily modify the same voice command to the actual different levels of the command, according to the current state of the robot.

The purpose of this study was to suggest an advanced system for educating scientifically gifted children in the Center for Science Talented Education at Kyungpook National University. Several suggestions based on analysis of current identifying-process and instructional materials for scientifically gifted children were provided for advancing the educational system of the center. First, this study suggested a three-step procedure to identify procedure emphasized students reasoning skills as one of important characteristics of the gifted child. Second, this study provided an instructional model for developing hypothesis testing skills in scientifically gifted children. The model was originally based on Lawson's scientific reasoning processes and learning cycle mode. Third, this study also suggested an effective administration system of the Center for Science Talented Education. Further, this study suggested effective ways on research works for advancing the center, educating instructors, the cyber center for remote education, and international co-works for developing the gifted children's potential abilities.
