Temporally Distributed Symptoms in Technical Diagnosis

Modeling the Representation of Time From a Fuzzy Perspective

“…An additional problem arises now: How can we compare the computational representation of the knowledge with the real measurements obtained at different points in time? Nokel (1991) has studied this problem in detail in a similar domain. If the granularity of the measurements is not high enough, they can be matched to different models, not determining a particular one.…”

“…A number of knowledge-based systems exist that use mechanisms for the manipulation and representation of temporal information and implement diagnostic tasks in physical systems (Perkins and Austin, 1990;Nokel, 1991) or biological systems Cousins et al, 1989). However, current approaches to temporal reasoning do not consider temporal imprecision explicitly or are limited to obtaining precise ranges of temporal error as in PERT diagrams.…”

Qualitative Spatial and Temporal Reasoning with Answer Set Programming

“…This made them useful when precise, numerical information is either not needed or not available. IA and RCC-8 have been used in a diverse number of applications including automated planning [2], computational biology [10], diagnosis [18], natural language processing [24], [16], and spatial information systems [11].…”

Temporal Constraint Satisfaction Problems

“…El razonamiento temporal juega un papel importante en diversasáreas de la Inteligencia Artificial, tales como procesamiento de lenguaje natural [4], planificación [5,19], scheduling [33,2], diagnóstico [31,32] o minería de datos temporales [7]. La solución usual para dotar a los programas de resolución de problemas con capacidades de gestión de información temporal consiste en construir un razonador temporal e integrarlo con el resolutor de problemas.…”
