Rule-Based System

Domain: Agent Architectures

🎯 Motivation

An agent that follows explicit if-then rules. Predictable and explainable but limited to what the rules cover.

πŸ“‹ Concrete Example

Rules: IF temp > 38 AND cough = true THEN suggest β€˜see doctor’. IF temp < 37 AND cough = false THEN suggest healthy. Each rule covers a specific scenario.

πŸ”— Analogy

A recipe - IF water boils THEN add pasta. IF pasta is soft THEN drain. Each step is an if-then rule. Rule-based systems follow recipes of rules, predictable but inflexible.
