Abstract

The management of the incidents on a subway line is a difficult task for several reasons, mainly because parameters that intervene in it are numerous and of various types. Decision trees are structures that permit to model contextual reasoning, but do not take the dynamics of contextual knowledge and proceduralized context into account. Decision graphs get round it and avoid combinatorial explosion often met in industrial applications of decision trees.
