SRT: A knowledge engineering tool for scene recognition

This paper describes the salient features of a knowledge engineering tool developed for scene recognition. Though the tool has been developed based on the requirements of a specific application area, the tool has been made general enough to be able to cater to a large number of applications. The tool, in its extended version, can deal with fuzzy as well as crisp data and knowledge. A novel technique, termed rule stratification, has been introduced and utilized in this tool. The paper also describes an application of the tool and presents a comparison of the features with those of The commercially available tools.
