Introduction to Expert Systems 3/e

The third edition of Peter Jackson's book, Introduction to Expert Systems, updates the technological base of expert systems research and embeds those results in the context of a wide variety of application areas. The earlier chapters take a more practical approach to the basic topics than the previous editions, while the later chapters introduce new topic areas, such as case-based reasoning, connectionist systems, and hybrid systems. Results in related areas, such as machine learning and reasoning with uncertainty are also accorded a thorough treatment.
