3. Knowledge Representation (Prof. Jeff Heflin) Inferred Hierarchy DL Reasoner Ontology table & view creation Database operation Rule-Based Systems (Catie Welsh) Rule inference as search trees Advantages: volume of information, prevent mistakes Disadvantages: lack of flexibility to changes in environment Real world domain: IDSS for cancer test

4. Design (Liam Page) Constrains not fully specified (ranking by preference) Graph representation of data Flexible similarity metrics: local Model+cases Fish and Shrink retrieval Configuration Systems (Sudhan Kanitkar) Concept Hierarchies Structure-Based Approach Forms of adaptation:  Compositional  Transformational

5. E-commerce (Joe Souto)Recommender Systems (Chad Hogg) fixed innovative products Knowledge gap: seller doesn’t know what buyer wants User Requirements  Hard versus soft  Redundant + contradictory Local similarity metrics Information overload Variants:  Content: inter-item similarity  Collaborative: Preferences  Query based  Hybrid Compromise-driven retrieval

6. Intelligent Tutoring Systems (Nicolas Frantzen) Description/performance history of student behavior Information the tutor is teaching Reflects the differing needs of each student Help-desk systems (Stephen Lee-Urban) Experience Management  CBR Approved versus Open cases Client-Server architecture  But all share domain model Help-desk deployment processes:  Technical: requirements  Organizational: training  Managerial: quality assurance

7. Conversational Case-Based Reasoning (Shruti Bhandari) Case Base Maintenance (Fabiana Prabhakar) Contrast with rule-based systems Initial input in plain text Only relevant cases/questions shown to user Coverage(CB): all problems that can be solved with CB Reachability(P): all cases that can solve P

8. MDPs and Reinforcement Learning (Megan Smith) Fuzzy Logic (Mark Strohmaier) Policy  : state  action MDPs: probabilities are given RL: learn the probabilities (adaptive) Drops concept of an element either belongs to a set or not Rather there is a degree of membership As a result well capable of dealing with noise Applications: autonomous vehicles

10. Computational Complexity Techniques for IDSS have a variety of complexities  Searching for m-NN in a sequential case base with n cases:  O(nlog 2 m)  Searching for m-NN in a case base with n cases indexed with a KD-tree :  O(log k n  log 2 m)  Constructing optimal decision tree, graph-subraph isomorphism, configuration, planning, constraint satisfaction  NP-complete  Quantified Boolean formulas, hierarchical planning, winning strategies in games  PSPACE-complete
