Architecture of the RB system

I will explain the architecture of the RB system by segregating it into three sections:

• General architecture of RB system as an expert system
• Practical architecture of the RB system for NLP applications
• Custom architecture - RB system for NLP applications
• Apache UIMA (Unstructured Information Management Architecture) the RB system for NLP applications

General architecture of the rule-based system as an expert system

If we described our rule-based system as an expert system, then the architecture of this kind of rule-based system would be the same as in Figure 7.5:

Figure 7.5: Architecture of the RB system, considering it as an expert system

Let's look at each of the components of the architecture...
