  • Abstract
    Efficiency in industrial process is extremely important. Expert systems have been used in industrial processes with resulting improvements in efficiency. Expert systems rely on rules normally acquired by a knowledge engineer. These results comprise the knowledge of the expert system. The paper describes a system for the automated acquisition of knowledge for an expert system for process control. The distillation column is the process chosen for testing the proposed system. Results are given to demonstrate the validity of the ideas presented.
