Trends in expert system development: A longitudinal content analysis of over thirty years of expert system case studies
作者：
Highlights：
• Diagnostic expert system applications continue to be the most popular.
• Synthetic type problem domains (such as design and planning) tend you yield higher impact systems.
• Rule-based knowledge representations tend you yield higher impact expert system applications.
• Unstructured interviews are not commonly used now for knowledge acquisition.
• In the past, structured and unstructured interviews tended to yield systems with equally high impact.
