A number of research issues such as knowledge acquisition, inferencing techniques, and knowledge refinement methodologies have been involved in the development of expert systems. Since each issue is considered very com- plicated, there has been little effort to take all the issues into account collectively at once. However, knowledge acquisition and inferencing are closely reated because the knowledge is extracted by human experts from the inferencing process for solving a specific task or problem. Knowledge refinement is also accomplished by hand-ling problems caused during the inferencing process of the system due to incompleteness and inconsistency of the knowledge base. From this perspecitive, we present a method by which software platform is established in which those issues are integrated in the development of expert systems, especially in the domain where the domain models and concepts are hard to be constructed because of inherent fuzziness of the domain. We apply a machine learning technique,technique, conceptual clustering,to build a knowledge base and rual models by which an efficient inferencing,incermental knp\owledge acquisition and refinment are possible.

This paper proposes an expert system with the knowledge learning capability which can enhance the safety and effectiveness of substation operation in the automated substation as well as existing substation by inferring multiple events such as main transformer fault, busbar fault and main transformer work schedule under multiple inference mode and multiple objective mode and by considering totally the switch status and the main transformer operating constraints. Especially inference mode includes the local minimum tree search method and pattern recognition method to enhance the performance of real-time bus reconfiguration strategy. The inference engine of the expert system consists of intuitive inferencing part and logical inferencing part. The intuitive inferencing part offers the control strategy corresponding to the event which is most similar to the real event by searching based on a minimum distance classification method of pattern recognition methods. On the other hand, logical inferencing part makes real-time control strategy using real-time mode(best-first search method) when the intuitive inferencing is failed. Also, it builds up a knowledge base or appends a new knowledge to the knowledge base using pattern learning function. The expert system has main transformer fault, main transformer maintenance work and bus fault processing function. It is implemented as computer language, Visual C++ which has a dynamic programming function for implementing of inference engine and a MFC function for implementing of MMI. Finally, it's accuracy and effectiveness is proved by several event simulation works for a typical substation.

Ontology-based context models are widely used in ubiquitous computing environment because they have advantages in the acquisition of conceptual context through inferencing, context sharing, and context reusing. Among the benefits, inferencing enables context-aware applications to use conceptual contexts which cannot be acquired by sensors. However, inferencing causes processing delay and thus becomes the major obstacle to the implementation of context-aware applications. The delay becomes longer as the amount of contexts increases. In this paper, we propose a context pre-fetching method to reduce the size of contexts to be processed in a working memory in attempt to speed up inferencing. For this, we extend the query-tree method to identify contexts relevant to the queries of a context-aware application. Maintaining the pre-fetched contexts optimal in a working memory, the processing delay of inference reduces without the loss of the benefits of ontology-based context model. We apply the proposed scheme to our ubiquitous computing middleware, Active Surroundings, and demonstrate the performance enhancement by experiments.

A Bayesian analysis for the product of different powers of k independent Poisson rates, written ${\theta}$, is developed. This is done by considering a prior for ${\theta}$ that satisfies the differential equation due to Tibshirani and induces a proper posterior distribution. The Gibbs sampling procedure utilizing the rejection method is suggested for the posterior inference of ${\theta}$. The procedure is straightforward to specify distributionally and to implement computationally, with output readily adapted for required inference summaries. A salient feature of the procedure is that it provides a unified method for inferencing ${\theta}$ with any type of powers, and hence it solves all the existing problems (in inferencing ${\theta}$) simultaneously in a completely satisfactory way, at least within the Bayesian framework. In two examples, practical applications of the procedure is described.

One of the components that constitute the simulation models is the state variables whose values are determined by the time related simulation process. Embedding rule-based expert systems into the simulation models should provide a systematic way of handling these time-dependent variables without distracting the essential problem solving capabilities of the expert systems which are well suited for expressing the decision making function of complex cases. The expert system, however, is inefficient in dealing with the time elapsing characteristics of target system compare to the simulation models. To solve the problem, this paper provides an interruptible inference engine whose inferencing process can be interrupted when the variables' value, which are used as the parameters of the rules, are not yet determined due to the time dependent nature of the state variables. The process is resumed when the variables are ready. The elapse of time is calculated by time-advance function of the simulation model to which the expert system has been embedded. The example modeling shown exploits the embedded interruptible inferencing capability for the controlling and monitoring of metal grating process.

Expert system is one of AI area which was came out at the end of 19705s. It simulates the human's way of thinking to give solutions of Problem in many applications. Most expert system consists of many components such as inference engine, knowledge base, and so on. Especially the performance of expert system depends on the control of enfficiency of inference engine. Inference engine has to get features; tirst, if possible to minimize restrictions when the knowledge base is constructed second, it has to serve various kinds of inferencing methods. In this paper, we design and implement the inference engine which is able to support the general functions to knowledge domain and inferencing method. For the purpose, forward chaining, backward chaining, and direct chaining was employed as an inferencing method in order to be able to be used by user request selectively. Also we not on1y selected production system which makes one ease staradization and modulation to obtain knowledges in target domain, but also constructed knowledge base by means of Extended Clause Bit Metrics (ECBM). Finally, the performance evaluation of inference engine between Rete pattern matching and ECBM has been done.

A neuro-fuzzy controller has some problems that he difficulty of tuning up the membership function and fuzzy rules, long time of inferencing and defuzzifying compare to PID. Also, the fuzzy controller's own defect as a PD controller has. In this study, it is proposed two methods to solve these problems. The first method is that inner fuzzy rules are tuned up automatically by the back propagation learning according to error patterns. And the second method is a new type defuzzification method that shorten the calculation time of an inferencing and a defuzzifying. In this study, it is designed the new type neuro-fuzzy controller that improves the fast response and the stability of a system by using the proposed methods. And, the designed controller is named EPLNFC(Error pattern Learning Neuro-Fuzzy Controller). To evaluate the fast response and the stability of EPLNFC designed in this study, EPLNFC is applied to a speed control of a DC motor and AC motor.

In this paper, we implemented a convolution neural network using GP-GPU. After defining the structure, CNN performed inferencing using the GP-GPU with 256 threads, which was the previous study, using the weight obtained from the training. Training used Intel i7-4470 CPU and Matlab. Dataset used Daimler Pedestrian Dataset. The GP-GPU is controlled by the PC using PCIe and operates as an FPGA. We assigned a thread according to the depth and size of each layer. In the case of the pooling layer, we used over warpping pooling to perform additional operations on the horizontal and vertical regions. One inferencing takes about 12 ms.
