Hohne B.A., Pierce T.H. (eds.) Expert System Applications in Chemistry

American Chemical Society, 1989. — 257 p.This volume demonstrates how chemical problems can be solved through the use of expert systems, programs that attempt to solve problems the same way a human expert would. Its 18 chapters offer a discussion of advanced prototypes and how they were constructed, along with a wide range of expert systems that are being used to solve chemical problems. Three main sections cover general chemical applications, industrial applications, and analytical chemistry applications. Of special interest is a brief glossary in the first chapter that aids in reading the rest of the book.
