An expert also called
cognoscente is someone widely recognized as a reliable source
of technique
or skill whose faculty for judging or deciding rightly, justly,
or wisely is accorded authority and status by their peers or the
public in a specific well-distinguished domain. An expert, more
generally, is a person with extensive knowledge or ability based
on research, experience, or occupation and in a particular area
of study. Experts are called in for advice on their respective
subject, but they do not always agree on the particulars of a field
of study. An expert can be, by virtue of credential, training,
education, profession, publication or experience, believed to have
special knowledge of a subject beyond that of the average person,
sufficient that others may officially (and legally) rely upon the
individual's opinion. Historically, an expert was referred to as
a sage (Sophos). The individual was usually a profound thinker
distinguished for wisdom and sound judgment.
Experts have a prolonged or intense experience through practice
and education in a particular field. In specific fields, the definition
of expert is well established by consensus and therefore it is not
necessary for an individual to have a professional or academic qualification
for them to be accepted as an expert. In this respect, a shepherd
with 50 years of experience tending flocks would be widely recognized
as having complete expertise in the use and training of sheep dogs
and the care of sheep. Another example from computer science is that
an expert system may be taught by a human and thereafter considered
an expert, often outperforming human beings at particular tasks.
In law, an expert witness must be recognized by argument and authority.
