METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SUB-MODEL SELECTION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system which enables a user to decide a correct model for allowing the user to solve an issue or to reach a decision by the use of a diagnostic system. SOLUTION: Model selection is performed. First information is obtained from a user about a presenting issue. The first information is used within a supermodel to identify an underlying issue and an associated sub-model for providing a solution to the underlying issue. A Bayesian network structure is used to identify the underlying issue and the associated sub-model. The sub- model obtains additional information about the underlying issue from the user. The sub-model uses the additional information to identify a solution to the underlying issue.
