These rules are determined by an interpretation system to describe operation of a BBMLM to associate inputs to the BBMLM with observed outputs of the BBMLM and without knowledge of the logic used in operation by the BBMLM to make these associations. To determine these rules, the interpretation system initially generates a proxy black-box model to imitate the behavior of the BBMLM based solely on data indicative of the inputs and observed outputs-since the logic actually used is not available to the system. The interpretation system generates rules describing the operation of the BBMLM by combining conditions-identified based on output of the proxy black-box model-using a genetic algorithm. These rules are output as if-then statements configured with an if-portion formed as a list of the conditions and a thenportion having an indication of the associated observed output.
