Abstract
This study intends to propose a hybrid Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) system with the integration of fuzzy sets theory and Ant System-based Clustering Algorithm (ASCA) in order to enhance the accuracy and speed in case matching. The cases in the case base are fuzzified in advance, and then grouped into several clusters by their own similarity with fuzzified ASCA. When a new case occurs, the system will find the closest group for the new case. Then the new case is matched using the fuzzy matching technique only by cases in the closest group. Through these two steps, if the number of cases is very large for the case base, the searching time will be dramatically saved. In the practical application, there is a diagnostic system for vehicle maintaining and repairing, and the results show a dramatic increase in searching efficiency.
