Coherence Theory of Truth as Base for Knowledge Based Systems
Heinz Josef Mubhoff · Journal of the Association for Information Systems · 1996
A Special Problem of Expert SystemsUsually knowledge based systems are realized as expert systems.Knowledge engineers try to build systems which 'represent' an expert's knowledge.These models typically are used by laymen lacking the specific expert knowledge in the modelized domain.Experts ared used to provide the knowledge to solve a specific problem and as a metaphor for constructing knowledge based systems.The later aspect has its roots in the psychological interest dominating research in artificial intelligence.Human problem solving behavior set artificial intelligence the example.The expert system approach satisfies many types of problems.But it can be shown that there are others which cannot be solved by this approach in a proper way.
