• abstract = "Nowadays a large number of intelligent systems for decision-making have yielded encouraging results. However, it is commonly acknowledged that expert system technology has some drawbacks. In particular, the knowledge bases of expert systems do not evolve. To solve this problem, a solution that integrated neural networks and expert systems has recently been proposed, namely the application of neural logic networks. This integrated system combines the strength of rule-based semantic structure and the learning capability of connectionist architecture. Nevertheless, the early approaches of this model carried the disadvantage of producing poor results or solutions that could not be interpreted straightforward. In this work, we overcome the these problems and we propose a system that is capable of producing arbitrary large and connected neural logic networks that can easily be interpreted into sets of expert rules. To accomplish this task we adopt a genetic programming approach, guided through grammars and we encode indirectly the architecture into genetic programming individuals. We test and make conclusions on the effectiveness of the proposed system into two real-world decision making domains.",
