Towards the Application of Association Rules for Defeasible Rule Discovery
Guido Governatori, Andrew M. Stranieri · 2001
In this paper we investigate the feasibility of Knowledge Discovery from Databases (KDD) in order to facilitate the discovery of defeasible rules that represent the ratio decidendi underpinning legal decision making. Moreover we will argue in favour of Defeasible Logic as an appropriate formal system in which the extracted principles should be encoded.
