Having done a lot of case-based reasoning almost 23 years ago . . . . 

Case-based reasoning is effectively analogous to weighted nearest neighbor in 
multi-dimensional space.  If you (or the system) can define the dimensions and 
scale and weight them, it's an awesome method -- this is equivalent to the 
logic-based/expert-system approach to CBR.  The other alternative, which most 
people don't realize is exactly equivalent to CBR, is to just use neural 
networks (since they just effectively "map" the multi-d space -- complete with 
scaling and weighting).

Having used both methods, I would say that, until they both scale themselves 
fairly quickly into oblivion, the neural network method is more accurate while 
CBR provides much better explanations.  The unfortunate thing is that as you 
add more and more dimensions, both methods falter pretty quickly.
