Intelligent Fril/SQL interrogator

The intelligent Fril/SQL interrogator is an object‐oriented and knowledge‐based support query system, which is implemented by the set of logic objects linking one another. These logic objects integrate SQL query, support logic programming language—Fril and Fril query together by processing them in sequence in slots of each logic object. This approach therefore takes advantage of both object‐oriented system and a logic programming‐based system. Fuzzy logic data mining and a machine learning tool kit built in the intelligent interrogator can automatically provide a knowledge base or rules to assist a human to analyze huge data sets or create intelligent controllers. Alternatively, users can write or edit the knowledge base or rules according to their requirements, so that the intelligent interrogator is also a support logic programming environment where users can write and run various Fril programs through these logic objects. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
