Notes on "epistemology of a rule-based expert system"
(1993)
| Abstract | In the 1970s, we conceived of a rule explanation as supplying the causal and social context that justifies a rule, an objective documentation for why a rule is correct. Today we would call such descriptions post-hoc design rationales, not proving the rulesÂ’ correctness, but providing a means for later interpreting why the rule was written and facilitating later improvements. | |||||||||
