dc.description.abstract Knowledge is the fundamental resource that enhances to function intelligently. Knowledge can be defined into two types such as explicit and implicit. Commonsense knowledge is one type of in implicit knowledge. Explicit knowledge can be presented formally and capable of effective (fast and good quality) communication of data to the user where as implicit knowledge can be represented in informal way and further modeling needed for gaining effective communication. Constructions of risk assessment using spatial data for disaster management have a problem of effective communication because of implicit knowledge. Risk assessment is a step in a risk management process. Risk assessment is the determination of quantitative or qualitative value of risk related to a concrete situation and a recognized hazard. Quantitative risk assessment requires commonsense knowledge related with the hazard. This complicates the effective ommunication of data to the user in real-time machine processing in support of disaster management. In this paper we present an approach to modeling commonsense knowledge in Quantitative risk assessment. This gives three-phase knowledge modeling approach for modeling commonsense knowledge in, which enables holistic approach for disaster management. At the initial stage commonsense knowledge is converted into a questionnaire. Removing dependencies among the questions are modeled using principal component analysis. Classification of the knowledge is processed through fuzzy logic module, which is constructed on the basis of principal components. Further explanations for classified knowledge are derived by expert system technology. We have implemented the system using FLEX expert system shell, SPSS, XML and VB. This paper describes one such approach using classification of human constituents in Ayurvedic medicine. Evaluation of the system has shown 77% accuracy. en_US
