CL-Protos: Knowledge Acquisition for Heuristic
Classification Tasks
areas/reasonng/case_bsd/protos/
CL-PROTOS is a Common Lisp reconstruction of the research version of
the Protos exemplar-based learning apprentice conceived by E. Ray
Bareiss and Bruce W. Porter of the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory
at The University of Texas at Austin. Protos was originally developed
as an experiment in knowledge acquisition for heuristic classification
tasks.
The original research version of Protos was written in Prolog. This
Common Lisp implementation is a reconstruction, not a Prolog-to-Lisp
rewrite. Thus, CL-Protos differs from the original Protos in several
places, but mostly by intention. Ray Bareiss had a consulting role in
this reconstruction and suggested many of the changes.
