Accession Number: 00964803
Record Type: Component
Availability: N/AFind a library where document is available Abstract: Development of computer technology enables the implementation of expert tools supporting decision processes in bridge management systems. The proposed expert tools utilize both the data base and knowledge base of the system. Decisions in bridge management are very often based on a mixture of precise data and fuzzy or uncertain information. It requires proper technology for information acquisition, representation, and processing. Presented is the technology of hybrid knowledge representation, integrating symbolic and nonsymbolic knowledge representation. The proposed technology of the multilevel hybrid network enables the integration of various techniques in one computer tool. According to the problem that should be solved and to the type of available information the hybrid network can be built of the neural, fuzzy, and functional components.
