case based reasoning
Definition
Process of arriving at the solution of a new problem on the basis of the solutions of previously-solved similar problems, such as when a doctor, lawyer, or mechanic relies on experience to remedy a current situation. In comparison to rule based systems (see expert system) which are useful where only one or a few solutions to a problem are possible, case based systems are useful in solving complex problems with many alternative solutions.
case based reasoning is in the Decision Making, Problem Solving, & Strategy and Statistics, Mathematics, & Analysis subjects.
