Question:
Exercise 5.8 Suppose there are four possible diseases a particular patient may have: p, q, r, and s. p causes spots. q causes spots. Fever could be caused by one (or more) of q, r, or s. The patient has spots and fever. Suppose you have decided to use abduction to diagnose this patient based on the symptoms.
(a) Show how to represent this knowledge using Horn clauses and assumables.
(b) Show how to diagnose this patient using abduction. Show clearly the query and the resulting answer(s).
(c) Suppose also that p and s cannot occur together. Show how that changes your knowledge base from part (a). Show how to diagnose the patient using abduction with the new knowledge base. Show clearly the query and the resulting answer(s).
