An Intelligent Knowledge-Based Tutoring System for a Transponder Test Set.

Abstract

This research note describes the development of an Intelligent Knowledge Based Instructional System (IKIS), a portable, pc-based tutor for training operators of the Teledyne AN/APM 424 transponder test set. The system consists of a high-fidelity simulation of the functional operations of the test set, together with mechanisms for teaching cognitive, situational, and procedural components of skills in operation and fault identification at the flight line level of operations. The IKIS demonstrates the basic components required of an intelligent tutoring system, including a knowledge base, an inference engine, a student model, a tutoring strategy, and a well-defined interface for user/system transactions. The report also discusses strategies for the further development and refinement of the knowledge representation approach, student modelling, and instructional strategies and methods. Keywords: Intelligent tutoring, Artificial intelligence, Expert systems, Simulation, Transponder. (kr)
