Abstract

In this paper we describe a new approach to the problem of management of the inconsistency in expert systems which can be used for acquiring knowledge. The method proposed is used for planning interviews with the domain expert. The validation method searches for inconsistent areas in the knowledge base and asks the expert questions with the aim of resolving the conflict present in these areas. The questions asked will depend on the area in which the inconsistency arises.
