Abstract:This paper deals with tacit-to-explicit knowledge (henceforth as: knwl.) externalization. Proposed and described is instance-based cognitive mapping (ICM) analyzing multiple decision instances using the inductive learning algorithms of artificial intelligence (AI). An exploratory test of the process suggests that inductive learning algorithms, e.g. the group method of data handling, can be used to discover a reasonable polynomial estimate of a knwl. worker's tacit mental model. This estimate can be compared with other explicit models and standards, updated with new information and knwl. etc.
