Abstract

Case-base maintenance research has extensively studied strategies for competence-retaining case base compression. Such approaches generally rely on the representativeness assumption that current case base contents can be used as a proxy for future problems when determining cases to retain. For mature case bases in stable domains, this assumption works well. However, representativeness may not hold for sparse case bases during initial case base growth, for dynamically changing domains, or when a case base built for one task is applied to cross-domain problem-solving in another. This paper presents a new method for competence-preserving deletion, Expansion-Contraction Compression (ECC), aimed at improving competence preservation when the representativeness assumption is only partially satisfied. ECC precedes compression with adaptation-based exploration of previously unseen parts of the problem space to create “ghost cases” and exploits them to broaden the range of cases available for competence-based deletion. Experimental results support that this method increases competence and quality retention for less representative case bases. They also reveal the unexpected result that ECC can improve retention of competence and quality even for representative case bases.
