Abstract

This paper addresses the issue of knowledge acquisition for a knowledge-based system (KBS) for foundation subsidence. It reviews the variety of techniques available and discusses how some of these have been employed in the development of the system. The relative merits and demerits of the various approaches in this application area are highlighted and the steps being taken to overcome the problems encountered outlined in this critical stage of the system development. The importance of the choice of appropriate experts, their attitude to the development of the KBS, their enthusiasm, availability, the ability to convey their thought processes, are included in the paper. The paper concludes that the success of a knowledge-based system is heavily reliant on the quality of the knowledge acquisition process, and the expert(s) whose knowledge is encapsulated within the system.
