It has been applied to the game of OTHELLO . Experiments show that CABOT saves about half as many cases as similar systems that do not adjust their retrieval and adaptation mechanisms. It also consistently beats these systems. These results suggest that existing case-based systems could save fewer cases without reducing their current levels of performance. They also demonstrate that it is beneficial to distinguish failures due to missing information, faulty retrieval, and faulty adaptation.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/118","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/0118.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/118.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/bibtex/118","volume":{"slug":"1991","title":"Proceedings of the Twelfth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1991","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/","year":1991,"location":"Sydney, New South Wales, Australia","dates":"24-30 August 1991","editors":"John Mylopoulos and Ray Reiter","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Learning Be Knowledge Acquisition","track":"Learning Be Knowledge Acquisition","number":118,"pages":{"first":803,"last":808},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
