Case-based reasoning

Case-based reasoning (CBR) systems reason from experience: they solve new problems by retrieving relevant prior cases and adapting them to fit new situations. In 1988 the first case-based reasoning workshop, sponsored by DARPA, identified theoretical foundations and fundamental issues for case-based reasoning research. Since then, much investigation has examined the CBR process itself, the validity of CBR as a cognitive model, and the application of CBR technology. The results of that work include refinements in theories of the case-based reasoning process, psychological evidence for human case-based reasoning, and the fielding of over 100 CBR applications.
