Decision matrix-a pattern generation and recognition system for decision support

Abstract

Herein is disclosed a pattern generation and recognition system for use in decision support systems comprising six Discrete Components, bound together by a plurality of weighted direct, indirect and spanning relationships that form a Decision Matrix node. A plurality of Decision Matrix nodes, bound by the same relationships then aggregate into a Decision Matrix. Each Decision Matrix, Decision Matrix node and Discrete Component maintain the ability to participate in a plurality of Decision Matrix's, Decision Matrix nodes and Discreet Components, thus allowing the for modular expansion and contraction of a Decision Matrix to unlimited size and complexity utilizing the Decision Matrix form and structure of patterns.
