    -- A Seamless Integration of Induction and CaseBased Reasoning for Decision Support Tasks

    No full text
    this paper we want to focus on a deep kind of integration of TDIDT and CBR that we call a seamless one. The INRECA system has been influenced by both the KATE system (Manago, 1989) and the MOLTKE workbench (Althoff, 1992; Pfeifer & Richter, 1993), which includes a.o. the PATDEX CBR system (Althoff & Wess, 1991; Richter & Wess, 1991; Wess, 1993; Althoff, 1993). The main idea is to extend the PATDEX indexing mechanism such that it can process also numeric attributes. For this purpose a k-d tree (Friedman, Bentley & Finkel, 1977) has been introduced in INRECA as one basic structure for indexing and retrieval (Althoff, Wess et al. 1994). While this structure allowed the use of numeric attributes and local similarity measures, it had to be extended to preserve the main qualities of the PATDEX system (Althoff, Wess et al. 1994; Wess, Althoff & Derwand, 1994). Within this paper we will call this extended k-d tree an Inreca tree to avoid confusion with the original one. Based on an Inreca tree both a decision tree and an extended k-d tree can be generated. This allows the use of induced knowledge within a k-d tree to improve the retrieval by the use of generalised knowledge. The more cases are available, the more general knowledge can be extracted and integrated in the Inreca tree for retrieval improvement. In section 2 we will contrast k-d trees and decision trees, in section 3 an overview of the k-d tree improvements is given. Finally, section 4 summarises the use of the seamless integration of TDIDT and CBR in INRECA

    Evaluating Case-Based Reasoning Systems

    No full text
    Evaluation is an important issue for every scientific field and a necessity for an emerging soft-ware technology like case- based reasoning. This paper is a supplementation to the review of industrial case-based reasoning tools by K.-D. Althoff, E. Auriol, R. Barletta and M. Manago which describes the most detailed evaluation of commercial case-based reasoning tools currently available. The author focuses on some important aspects that correspond to the evaluation ofcase-based reasoning systems and gives links to ongoing research

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
