35 Questions

What is the primary goal of backward chaining in diagnostic systems?

To determine the cause of a particular problem based on symptoms

What is the difference between backward chaining and forward chaining in terms of direction?

Backward chaining starts from a conclusion and works backward, while forward chaining starts from available data and works forward

What is the representation of the backward chaining process?

A tree, with the conclusion at the end of the tree and the premises at the beginning

What is the strength of backward chaining in terms of rule evaluation?

It is more efficient in terms of the number of rules that need to be evaluated

What is the primary difference between the two reasoning processes in terms of their goals?

Backward chaining is used for focused problem solving, while forward chaining is used for generating new conclusions
