Rule-Based Expert Systems
Objective:
Delve into Deepak Khemani's perspectives on Rule-Based Expert Systems, emphasizing key components
pivotal for knowledge transfer and problem-solving.
Background:
Evolution from earlier expert systems, driven by the idea of transferring domain expertise through rules.
Highlighting the crucial role of programming languages like OPS5 (refer also to Brownston et al., 1985) in
facilitating the expression of rules.
Significance:
Understanding how these systems became a bridge between human expertise and machine-driven
decision-making.
Transition:
Uncover the foundational components of Rule-Based Expert Systems according to Deepak Khemani,
starting with the Set of Rules.
Introduction to Rule-Based Expert Systems
Key Points:
Rule-Based Expert Systems emulate human decision-making in AI,
representing a significant advancement in artificial intelligence.
Originated from the powerful concept of transferring domain expert
knowledge to machines through the formulation of rules.

Context:
General-purpose inference engines play a vital role in connecting these rules,
facilitating efficient problem-solving by the system.
OPS5, a programming language introduced by Brownston et al. in 1985,
emerged as a critical enabler, providing a structured framework for expressing
these rules effectively.

Significance:
Rule-Based Expert Systems automate complex problem-solving tasks, acting
as a pivotal link between human expertise and the decision-making
capabilities of machines.
Traditional Components of an Expert System
Key Points:
Expert systems traditionally comprise three essential components, forming the
backbone of Rule-Based Expert Systems.
Set of Rules:
Definition: Rules act as the long-term memory, storing associations between
patterns and actions.
Function: Rules become ready to execute when current problem data matches
their pattern.
Working Memory:
Definition: Working Memory (WM) functions as short-term memory, composed of
timestamped Working Memory Elements (WMEs).
Inference Engine:
Definition: The inference engine is constant, domain-independent, driving
processing by selecting and executing rules.
