MYCIN type Certainty Reasoning



Hello,

I am looking to implement a variation of MYCIN Certainty Theory - in prolog perhaps, or some suitable logic enabled language. I am not familiar with Prolog really or Clips or Lisp for that matter, but I know about some of the underlying principles, so I am specifically looking for an implementation of CT using such a language. I already have an implementation in C++ but I am just looking to see if there is any advantage to using a logic language to do this; perhaps there isn't but I would like to see an example.
.
