The danain of applicationcomputer-based statistical analysis - requires that a changing knowledge base be handled by the system, GLIMPSE•. · The developing system is suitable for users with different levels of expertise, including those who wish to act independently of the system's advice. Two features are incorporated into GLIMPSE that are suitable for other front-ends and expert systems - a facility for suggesting answers to a user who requires guidance; - an evaluator that suspends when information is missing and suggests an action to find the missing information. Previous and current methods of proviaing advice are discussed.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1987/118","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1987/0118.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1987/118.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1987/bibtex/118","volume":{"slug":"1987","title":"Proceedings of the Tenth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1987","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1987/","year":1987,"location":"Milan, Italy","dates":"","editors":"John McDermott","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Knowledge Representation","track":"Knowledge Representation","number":118,"pages":{"first":596,"last":600},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
