Abstract

This paper describes a mineral identification program which utilises a shell system for creating expert systems of a classification nature. It has been specifically tailored to three subdomains, these being identification of minerals in: hand specimens, thin sections of rocks, and polished sections of rocks. The program has facilities for building new expert systems and amending existing expert systems. The expert systems created use inexact reasoning, and thus can handle both missing and inaccurate data. Explanation and help facilities are also available.
