Abstract :
A hybrid knowledge representation for the problem of investment-strategy selection is described. This representation scheme is efficient in knowledge organization and inference performance. The types of knowledge required to support the selection process are identified. The interrelationships among these different types of knowledge are represented in a frame abstraction, and a frame-slot structure in clausal form is described. Knowledge acquisition, consistency, and completeness checks are shown in terms of sample Prolog rules.<>
