[comp.ai.digest] Request for a set of "if-then" rules

eric@aragorn.OZ.AU.UUCP (08/28/87)

I would like to have access to a set (or sets) of in-use "if-then" rules.

I am encoding a General Purpose Inference Engine (GPIE) for a conceptual
graph (J.F. Sowa's book on Conceptual Structures) system and would like to
ask for a set of "if-then" rules currently used in some typical rule-based 
systems. Something between 50 to 200 rules are quite appropriate for testing.

These rules, presumably not written in the CG notation, will be encoded in
the CG formalism and then used for testing the GPIE.  The rules, 
encoded in the CG notation, can be returned to the original source.

Meta-rules, self-referencing rules and other non base level rules are also
sought, though they may not incorporated into the testbed.

Rules are most preferred in areas like financial and auditing domains,
diagnostic systems, planning and intelligent help/advisory systems. 
Others are also welcome.

Does anyone have access to such a set of rules ? 
Can someone provide pointers to locate such rules ?
Any other advise ?
