Abstract

The problem of verification of rule knowledge base covers the verification of dynamic properties, which reflect the processes occurring during inference. Process of detection of these anomalies requires modelling of dynamics of these processes. Suggested in previous papers the decision unit conception did not guarantee such a possibility. This paper gives attention to the analysis of possible use of Petri nets and incidence matrix as the way of representation of knowledge base. The paper presents the relation between Petri nets and decision units’ nets and simultaneously points at the possible use of Petri nets to develop the properties of decision units.
