Abstract
Case Retrieval Nets (CRNs) have been developed for the efficient and flexible retrieval of cases from large case bases in the context of Case Based Reasoning. The information access in CRNs is performed by a bottom-up spreading activation process according to similarity and relevance from query related nodes to case nodes. Special attention is put on the handling of vague queries in CRNs.
