Event tree analysis using artificial intelligence techniques
Brent W. Dixon, M.F. Hinton · OSTI OAI (U.S. Department of Energy Office of Scientific and Technical Information) · 1985
Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques used in Expert Systems and Object Oriented Programming are discussed as they apply to Event Tree Analysis. A SeQUence IMPortance calculator, SQUIMP, is presented to demonstrate the implementation of these techniques. Benefits of using AI methods include ease of programming, efficiency of execution, and flexibility of application. The importance of an appropriate user interface is stressed. 5 figs.
