Abstract

A knowledge-based decision support system that allows for communication and learning to occur using natural language is presented. The system has a capability to automatically extract features from the natural language using symmetric reductions and random search. The iterative generalization of the rule base and checking of the resultant base against a case base from which the generalizations are induced is also provided. The decision support system can be used to search semi-structured databases and automatically learns new knowledge and search control knowledge where it is most needed based on the pattern of previous rule firings.
