Answers and Retrieval

• In the simplest case, a new problem is presented.
• The system searches the casebase for the most similar case.
• It retrieves that along with the answer.
• It then trots out the answer as the answer to the new problem.
• It is possible to retrieve multiple close cases. The system could then present all of those to the user, or do something with all the answers.
• The system could also adapt the answer.
• However the obvious question is what makes one case similar to another?
