Case-based reasoning system and artificial neural networks: A review
In this survey paper, the-state-of-art of the connectionist model (i.e. Artificial Neural Network (ANN)) based methodology for a Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) system design is discussed. Special emphasis is laid on how the ANN can advance CBR technology by building an ANN-based CBR system, or integrating itself as a component within a CBR system. Several ANN models proposed for constructing a CBR system and for solving some special issues involved in a CBR process are described. The main characteristics of each model are analysed, and the advantages and limitations of different models are compared. Also, future research directions are outlined.
