Course Overview

Expert systems (ES) attempt to solve complex problems by reasoning through bodies of knowledge, represented mainly as if–then rules rather than through conventional procedural code. A decision support system (DSS) is an information system that supports business or organisational decision-making activities. DSSs serve the management, operations and planning levels of an organization, consequently help people make decisions about complex cases, for example in dealing with unstructured and semi-structured decision problems. Decision support systems can be either fully computerized or human-powered, or a combination of both. In many use cases, DSSs can help businesses. From health management systems, to finance sector, and urban planning, expert systems and DSSs provide diagnostic, decision making, and reasoning services. In this course, we are going to address fundamentals, theory, and practice of expert systems and DSSs.

Course Objectives

The course is devoted to introduce expert systems and decision support systems; show their relationship to different applications in different businesses, and how to design and develop them. Learners will be able to articulate ES and DSS design, implementation approaches and tools.
