Components of an Expert System - Architecture Overview #3715574 (License: Personal Use)

The diagram outlines six key components of an expert system: the Inference Engine (central reasoning unit), Knowledge Base (stores domain-specific facts and rules), Acquisition Facility (enables knowledge input from experts and engineers), User Interface (facilitates interaction), Users (end beneficiaries), and Explanation module (provides transparency in reasoning). Arrows indicate bidirectional data flow between modules, emphasizing dynamic collaboration among components for intelligent problem-solving.

Used in AI education, technical documentation, or enterprise knowledge management pages; targets students, developers, and system designers seeking to understand expert system design and implementation.
