Abstract

General requirements for knowledge representation in the form of logic rules, applicable to design and control of industrial processes, are formulated. Characteristic behavior of Decision Trees and Rough Sets Theory in rules extraction from recorded data is discussed and illustrated. The significance of the models’ drawbacks was evaluated, using simulated and industrial data sets. It is concluded that performance of Decision Trees may be considerably poorer in several important aspects, compared to Rough Sets Theory, particularly when not only a characterization of a problem is required, but also detailed and precise rules are needed, according to actual, specific problems to be solved.
