摘要:
AbstractThe ‘Knowledge Engineer's Assistant’ (KEATS) is a software environment suitable for constructing knowledge‐based systems. In this paper, we discuss its role in supporting the knowledge engineer in the tasks of knowledge elicitation and domain understanding. KEATS is based upon our own investigations of the behaviour and needs of knowledge engineers and provides two enhancements to other modern ‘shells’. ‘toolkits’, and ‘environments’ for knowledge engineering: (i) transcript analysis facilities, and (ii) a sketchpad on which the KE may draw a freehand representation of the domain, from which code is automatically generated. KEATS uses a hybrid representation formalism that includes a frame‐based language and a rule interpreter. We describe the novel components of KEATS in detail, and present an example of how KEATS was used to build an electronic fau
