Memory efficiency of production rule systems

Abstract:

A method for improving memory efficiency of production rule systems is described. In one embodiment, the method includes identifying a rule associated with production rule systems, constructing a production rule network based at least in part on the rule, identifying a positional constraint associated with the rule, and implementing an alpha memory gate in the production rule network based at least in part on the positional constraint. In some cases, the alpha memory gate is one of a plurality of nodes of the production rule network.
