When programming artificial intelligent systems to make decisions and or evaluate there are a number of theories that should be explored before choosing a specific path. Writing code is tedious and time consuming indeed and it is appropriate to do as much up front work as possible. First and foremost you need to decide on which model your AI system will take in its decision making process. If you intend to build a decision matrix system then you may wish to do a little philosophical discussion with yourself or your team.
