Expert systems are computer applications that solve complex problems in a particular domain at an expert human level using artificial intelligence. They were developed in the 1970s by computer scientist Edward Feigenbaum. Expert systems can explain their reasoning, deal with uncertainty without full information, make errors, and display intelligent behavior, while not being able to refine their own knowledge bases or always being difficult and expensive to develop and maintain. They have applications in medical diagnosis, vehicle fault detection, design, virus detection, and loan analysis, providing advantages like speed, reduced errors and risks, while always being available.

3. What is an Expert System ?
• The expert systems are the computer applications
developed to solve complex problems in a
particular domain, at the level of extra-ordinary
human intelligence and expertise.
• The concept of expert systems was developed in
the 1970s by computer scientist Edward
Feigenbaum.

5. Example

6. Characteristics of Expert System
• Can explain their reasoning or suggested decisions.
- Why recommended a certain medicine ?
• Can deal with uncertainty.
- A patient is diagnose without running all the tests.
• Possibility of error.
• Cannot refine own knowledge base.
• Difficult to maintain.
• May have high development costs.
• Can display “intelligent” behavior.
• Raise legal and ethical concerns.

7. Applications of Expert System
• Medical Diagnosis
• Finding out faults in vehicles, computers.
• Design Domain-Camera lens design, automobile
design.
• Virus Detection, Loan analysis

8. Advantages:
•Speed
• Less Error rate
•Availability
•Reducing Risk
Disadvantages:
•ES are difficult to maintain
•High development costs

9. CONCLUSION
Expert system is undeniably reliable in terms of
providing reasonable and highly valuable
decisions. Knowledge and experiences from a
human expert can lead to the critical decision-
making in achieving success.
