Mina Yousry Halim, K. M. HO, Aoxue Liu · International Journal of Pattern Recognition and Artificial Intelligence · 1991
This paper outlines an alternative approach using fuzzy production rules to handle approximate reasoning in expert systems without using the Generalised Modus Ponens (GMP) model by Zadeh. The proposed approach provides a method whereby a collection of rules is used to specify the properties of the inference as required by the expert. An example on the medical diagnosis of Acute Rheumatic Fever is used for illustration.
