Workshop on Evaluation of Knowledge-Based Systems

Buchanan, Bruce University of Pittsburgh $24,995 - 12（$24,995 - 12）基于知识的系统评估研讨会这笔赠款是为将于1995年12月7-8日在马里兰州贝塞斯达的国家医学图书馆举行的基于知识的系统评估研讨会提供部分资金。本次会议的目的是澄清在评估以知识为基础的软件时所涉及的问题和权衡，这些软件旨在协助涉及人类健康和福利的决策者。这些原则将适用于所有基于知识的系统，但在直接涉及人类生活的部署中，需求的紧迫性最为明显。基于知识的系统是复杂的软件，因此有必要进行实证研究来预测其性能。讲习班将召集许多对这种制度进行系统评价的人士，分享他们的知识，并制定这种评价的原则办法。

IRI-9626345 Buchanan, Bruce University of Pittsburgh $24,995 - 12 mos WORKHOP ON EVALUATION OF KNOWLEDGE-BASED SYSTEMS This grant is to provide partial funding for a Workshop on Evaluation of Knowledge-Based Systems, to be held December 7-8, 1995 at the National Library of Medicine, Bethesda, Maryland. The purpose of this meeting is to clarify the questions and tradeoffs involved in evaluating knowledge-based software designed to assist decision-makers in contexts involving human health and welfare. These principles will have applications to all knowledge-based systems, but the acuteness of the need is most apparent in deployments that directly involve human life. Knowledge-based systems are complex pieces of software, so empirical studies are necessary to predict their performance. The workshop will bring together many persons who have undertaken systematic evaluations of such systems to share their knowledge and develop principled approaches to such evaluation.
