Abstract: A growing number of industrial applications use rule-based programming. Frequently, the implementation of the inference engine embedded in these applications is based on the RETE algorithm.
Abstract: This paper analyzes the processing characteristics and execution mechanisms of the classical RETE algorithm and points out its limitations when performing multi-entity match and multi-rule ...
In debates about artificial intelligence (AI), imaginations often run wild. Policy-makers, opinion leaders, and the public tend to believe that AI is already an immensely powerful universal technology ...
Age spots, also called solar lentigines and lentigo senilis, are light brown to black pigmented lesions of various sizes that typically develop in chronically sun-exposed skin. It is well known that ...
There are 5.4 million new cases of skin cancer in the United States 2 every year. One in five Americans will be diagnosed with a cutaneous malignancy in their lifetime. Although melanomas represent ...
ABSTRACT: This paper presents a new programming paradigm named Notification-Oriented Paradigm (NOP) and analyses the performance aspects of NOP programs by means of an experiment. NOP provides a new ...
Lisa is a production-quality, forward-chaining expert system shell featuring an optimized implementation of Charles Forgy's Rete algorithm, a highly efficient solution to the difficult many-to-many ...
