Developing Industrial Case-Based Reasoning Applications

Sinopse

In just few years, case-based reasoning has evolved from a research topic studied at a small number of specialized academic labs into an industrial-strength technology applied in various fields. The INRECA methodology presented in detail in this monograph provides a data analysis framework for developing case-based reasoning solutions for successful applications in real-world industrial contexts. The book is divided into parts on: - smarter business with case-based decision support;- developing case-based applications using the INRECA methodology; and- using the methodology in various application domains. The book provides a self-contained introduction to case-based reasoning applications that address both Ramp;D professionals and general IT managers interested in this powerful new technology. In this second edition, improvements and updates have been incorporated throughout thenbsp; text. Particularlynbsp;useful is the systematic coverage ofnbsp;experience factory applications at various steps; and, of course, the references have been extended substantially.
