Object-Driven Action Rules

In this section, we start by providing the reader with the necessary background to shape a complete picture behind object-driven action rules and its motivation. Classical action rules are introduced, formally defined and fully explained, to the extent of preparing the reader with the necessary background to capture its relation to object-driven action rules, by the similarities of both, and the novelty of each.

Following the background, we move our discussion to object-driven action rules; starting by clearly communicating to the reader the properties of datasets that work for action rules concepts and by fully explaining the assumptions we make for our adapted system.
