    Abstract

    This paper describes the application of advanced knowledge-based reasoning (KBR) on the performance of paper machine's felts, especially in relation to runnability. This kind of analysis and benchmarking has traditionally been based almost exclusively on numerical data. In addition to such data analysis, also textual information and storage of tacit knowledge is needed for more comprehensive understanding of the phenomena involved. Methods of the case-based reasoning (CBR) technique were utilized on systematic exploitation of experiences. Three different case retrieval methods; numerical similarity, taxonomy-based similarity and free text search, were studied and used in the application. The implemented software application was aimed for process engineers, providing information for benchmarking and longer term process improvement.
