Rete for Frames

Clojure RETE implementation for frames

Manners Benchmark Table

Test	CLIPS v 6.24 (msec)	rete4frames v 5.3.0 (msec)
manners8	1.316599	82	x 61
manners16	18	247	x 14
manners32	272	1427	x 5
manners64	8939	9635	x 1.1
manners128	324396	88690	x 0.27

Test results obtained on the same hardware and OS 7 october 2016. As can be seen from the results, rete4frames initially far behind and then starts to catch up CLIPS. On the most difficult test rete4frames almost 4 times faster than CLIPS.

Leiningen dependency information:

 [rete "5.3.0-SNAPSHOT"]

Maven dependency information:

<dependency>
  <groupId>rete</groupId>
  <artifactId>rete</artifactId>
  <version>5.3.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

To get the Manners Benchmark results run in REPL:

(require 'rete.core)
(in-ns 'rete.core)
(app "run" "examples/manners.clj" "examples/manners_f8.clj")

The benchmark table for Waltz algorithm is in [Waltz Benchmark Table] (https://github.com/rururu/rete4frames/blob/master/doc/waltz_benchmark.md)

Running examples:

(require 'rete.core)
(in-ns 'rete.core)
(app "run" "examples/mab.clj") ;; Monkey and bananas..
(app "run" "examples/zebra.clj") ;; Who drinks water, who owns zebra..
(app "run" "examples/auto.clj") ;; Automotive Expert System..
(app "run" "examples/sudoku/sudoku.clj" "examples/sudoku/grid3x3-p1.clj") ;; Game "Sudoku"
(app "run" "examples/hypertension.clj") ;; Doctor's expert system

What is a name of a next patient? (no-patients)
"Alice"
Patient: Alice, age: 70, race: nonblack
Last blood pressure values: systolic: 140, diastolic: 90, date: 18.2.2015
Well, Alice, let's measure your current blood pressure..
What are blood pressure values now? [systolic diastolic]
[140 90]
Good, Alice.
Continue prescribed medication.
                     Waiting for you after 18.3.2015, if all is well.
                     Good bye.

Yet another example: "Real" air traffic control system - client-server ClojureScript-Clojure application based on "Flightradar24" web service (http://www.flightradar24.com/), "Leaflet" JavaScript libraty (http://leafletjs.com/), httpkit, compojure, core.async and others Clojure libraries. This example is in a separate repository https://github.com/rururu/rete4flights.

And one more: es-boat - a prototype of an expert system for coastal navigation. It uses [Protege-3.5 ontology editor] (http://protege.stanford.edu/) as a knowledge representation system and server-side GUI, [OpenStreetMap] (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API) API, Leaflet JavaScript library, [Cesium] (https://cesiumjs.org/) WebGL virtual globe and map engine, [GeoNames] (http://www.geonames.org/) geographical database and Wikipedia.
