We use a Mycin-like uncertainty management but we include a factor imp

The algorithm is described below:
IF (
AND
) THEN
ELSE IF ( AND ) THEN
ELSE IF (
AND
) THEN
ELSE |
This algorithm is summarized by the following figure :
(for values -1, , , +1, giving for all possible three values imp, , ).
If more than one production rule can be activated for an identical conclusion (on class i for example), the conclusion will be assigned a combined certainty factor computed by the following commutative and associative operation.
For example :
Application of rule 1 gives class i (
) and application of rule 2 gives class i (
)
then the combined certainty factor
will be :
|
At the end of the process, each point is classified in each class with updated certainty factors, so the final classification can take place.
