Abstract

In the paper, the author’s conception of building an intelligent system for predicting economic situation of enterprises is presented. This conception is captured in the form of the prediction chain (PC). A process of reasoning by analogy is performed using a Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) methodology. In the paper, a model of an enterprise, concentrating on identification of the competence potential and competence gap, is shown. A protocol of an assessment of potential and assessment of competence gap in a given range, using the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process), is presented. Individual elements of a system for creating the knowledge are captured in the form of an A-E-AE (Agent-Expert-Acts of Explanation). The structures of classes in the Protege editor are shown. At the end, a coordination diagram in the UML language is depicted. This diagram makes up a diagram of the interface between an expert and a CBR system.

Keywords:
