Lab 1

The document discusses different approaches to implementing expert systems, including using the CLIPS and Experta frameworks. CLIPS is a rule-based programming language written in C, while Experta is a Python library inspired by CLIPS. The document explains how to create facts and rules in Experta, with facts representing basic information and rules containing left-hand and right-hand sides to describe conditions and actions.

How To Implement an expert system

⮚ CLIPS
⮚ Python
▪ a rule‑based programming language
Written in C

▪ CLIPS is an abbreviation to the C


Language Integrated Production System
CLIPS
▪ useful for creating expert systems and
other programs where a heuristic solution
is easier to implement and maintain than
an algorithmic solution
▪ Experta is a Python library for building expert systems
strongly inspired by CLIPS
Experta the goal of making it easy for the CLIPS programmer to
transfer all of his/her knowledge to this platform.

Difference between CLIPS and Experta

Pyknow • CLIPS is a programming language, Experta is a Python


library.
• CLIPS is written in C, Experta in Python
• In CLIPS you add facts using assert, in Python we
use declare instead
▪ To install Experta, run this command in your terminal:

Experta ▪ pip install experta


Installation
▪ Pip 🡪 python installer
package
▪ Facts are the basic unit of information of Experta. They
are used by the system to reason about the problem.

▪ The class Fact is a subclass of dict.


Facts
▪ from experta import *

▪ f = Fact(a=1, b=2)
▪ In contrast to dict, you can create a Fact without keys
(only values), and Fact will create a numeric index for
your values.

Facts
▪ f2 = Fact('x','y','z')

▪ You can mix autonumeric values with key-values, but


autonumeric must be declared first:

f3 = Fact('x','y','z',a=1,b=2)
▪ You can subclass Fact to express different kinds of data
or extend it with your custom functionality.

Facts class Alert(Fact):


"""The alert level."""
pass

class Status(Fact):
"""The system status."""
pass

f1 = Alert('red‘, ‘noise’)
f2 = Status('critical')
▪ In Experta a rule is a callable, decorated with Rule.
▪ @Rule

▪ Rules have two components, LHS (left-hand-side) and


Rules RHS (right-hand-side).

▪ The LHS describes (using patterns) the conditions on


which the rule should be executed (or fired).
▪ The RHS is the set of actions to perform when the rule
is fired.
@Rule(Fact('animal', family='felinae')) # This is the LHS
def match_with_cats(): # This is the RHS
"""
Match with every `Fact` which:
Rules
* f[0] == 'animal'
* f['family'] == 'felinae'

"""
print("Meow!")
Rules
