One of the goals of Artificial Intelligence is to develop systems which exhibit ‘intelligent’ human-like behavior. Initial attempts in the field (in the 1960s) like the General Problem Solver created by Allen Newell and Herbert Simon from Carnegie Mellon University, were to create a general purpose intelligent systems which could handle tasks in a variety of domains. However, researchers soon realized that developing such general purpose systems was too difficult and it was better to focus on systems for limited domains. Edward Feigenbaum from Stanford University then proposed the notion of expert systems. Expert systems are systems which encode human expertise in limited domains and can represent this human knowledge using If-then rules.
In this context, let's define what is an eXpert System. An eXpert System is a computer program that contains the knowledge and analytical skills of one or more human experts, related to a specific subject.
In the SPXS system, the knowledge is a database with the results of all the NBA games since 1990, this database includes the betting lines, over/under, scores, difference of lines, point spread, totals, etc., all possible information obtainable from a game match. The complete version of SPXS system includes all major American sports. However, only the Basketball NBA is available online.
