Multivariable Case Adaptation Method of Case-Based Reasoning Based on Multi-Case Clusters and Multi-Output Support Vector Machine for Equipment Maintenance Cost Prediction

Case adaptation is crucial for case-based reasoning (CBR) because the solutions of old cases are not always the ideal answer for the encountered new problem. It is employed to solve new problems by utilizing the adaptation knowledge extracted from similar ones encountered in the past. The traditiona...

This article presents a new case adaptation method by the combination of multi-adaptation engines from different case clusters to improve the adaptation accuracy.
