The EVA product was conceived, designed and
developed as a general tool by Aplicaciones en Informática Avanzada
as the result of one of the main lines of research at the company:
Transforming information into knowledge.
With this in mind, EVA was specifically developed
as a general tool for assistance in decision-making processes.
EVA is a learning tool which captures the way
in which an expert makes decisions through a dialogue. Once the expert
has defined a hierarchy tree for the relevant concepts / variables within
the decision-making process, this person transmits knowledge using binary
selection processes (one of two situations). The result is that the
product provides a linear discriminator with relative weightings of
variables which, when applied during the categorisation and assessment
phase, imitates the behaviour of the expert.
