This paper is part of an ongoing effort to facilitate wider acceptance and further development of the IEEE Std 1232-2010 Standard for Artificial Intelligence Exchange and Service Tie to All Test Environments (AI-ESTATE). To that end, we describe a tool named SAPPHIRE TM , which includes an implementation of AI-ESTATE in Java and a corresponding GUI tool that supports model creation and diagnostic inference of the standard's Bayes Network Model (BNM). In addition, we describe extensions to the BNM as well as additional reasoner services that allow for representation and inference over dynamic Bayesian networks (DBNs) for standards-based prognostics.
