Semantic matching for rule conflict identification

Abstract

System and techniques for identifying conflicts between rules in a rule engine using semantic matching are described herein. A user-provided rule, conforming to a specified rule standard, is obtained via a user interface. A corresponding vector embedding is generated by translating the rule into a high-dimensional representation reflecting its semantic properties. This embedding is then used to search for a set of similar rules in a rule repository, enabling rapid detection of potential conflicts or redundancies. The resulting similar rules are displayed to the user for review prior to installing the new rule, thus improving the consistency and reliability of rule-based systems.
