Abstract

A knowledge inferential processing apparatus comprises an external interface section for inputting and outputting information between the knowledge inferential processing apparatus and the exterior thereof; a rule base memory for representing knowledge as a combination of a plurality of rules constructing a premise conditional section and a conclusive section as a pair, and storing the represented knowledge; a rule pointer table for storing a rule pointer group indicative of a sequence for applying the rules within the rule base memory; an inferential processing section for interpreting and executing the rules and judging whether or not the matching is formed with respect to the respective rules; a memory section for storing fact data sent to the inferential processing section and conclusive data generated during the inferential processing; an inferential hysteresis recording section for recording a rule pointer of the matched rule in the matched sequence with respect to the inferential processing results executed by the inferential processing section; and a control section for sequentially sending the rules to the inferential processing section in accordance with the rule pointer group and sending the rule pointer of the matched rule to the inferential hysteresis recording section with respect to the inferential processing results executed by the inferential processing section.
