Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for assisted decision-making. A knowledge base comprises a plurality of executable stories. A given story comprises a belief network containing at least one associated hypothesis and evidence associated with the at least one hypothesis. The system further comprises at least one decision algorithm having respective associated input formats. A translation interface is operative to convert a given story from the knowledge base into a decision network having a format associated with the at least one decision algorithm.

11. A method for assisting decision making comprising:
-
storing a plurality of executable stories in a knowledge base;
converting a given story from the plurality of executable stories into a decision network having a format associated with a decision algorithm associated with the knowledge base;
processing the decision network at the decision algorithm to produce a revised decision network; and
converting the revised decision network into a revised executable story. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
