構造化知識運用のためのシステム技術

抄録

The documents about troubles such as trouble reports, testing reports and FMEA sheets are shared in design departments. However, the descriptions in those documents are limited to the very parts in which the troubles occur and tend to be fragmentary and individual knowledge. In order to realize trouble prevention, it is necessary to extract the essence of the failure mechanisms from those descriptions and represent the structured knowledge processed by computer. Furthermore, it is dispensable to construct the system based on knowledge processing supported by advanced retrieval technology. In this paper, the system technology and knowledge processing for structured knowledge is discussed and "Alize", which is the system supporting trouble prevention is introduced. "Alize" is realized by combining the structured knowledge engineering and advanced natural language processing technology and it is much better than a mere document search engine.
