DETECTING CASES WITH CONFLICTING RULES

摘要

A method, system and/or computer program product for managing condition action rules comprises: a treated case modeler for building a family of cases that make some rules applicable; a conflict detector for iteratively building and testing subsets of cases of the family searching for cases with conflicting decisions in order to locate a subset of cases that all have conflicting decisions. The conflict detector is further adapted for eliminating subsets of cases that have all non-conflicting decisions. The conflict detector is further adapted for distinguishing conflicting decisions from unrelated decisions and thus avoids the reporting of false conflicts.
