I am looking for a rule based system (forward chaining) like CLIPS than can do temporal reasoning, i.e. phrases of the form:
If condition active for more than 10s…
If condition1 becomes active less than 10s after condition2 becomes active…
If more than n events during 10s…
If first condition1 then condition2 and then condition3 not more than 2 s apart…
This is for an alarm system, I would prefer a c or python library or something that can be easily interfaced to python.
I’ve found this discussion, but it did not help much:
Rules engine for spatial and temporal reasoning?
It’s not been modified for several years, but there is a Python library for CLIPS on sourceforge called PyCLIPS. They have a rather complete manual too.
