Popis: | The Center for Preventive Medicine (CMP) carries out 60 000 routine health examinations each year. An “expert system” is being developed to assist doctors in interpreting these check-ups: it discerns anomalies, compiles them, determines risks and diagnoses, proposes investigations and questions to be asked to patients, indicates behavior modifications and desirable actions. For this, we use a rule-based system generator using a forward chaining inferencing scheme. The usefulness of the system has to do with the great diversity of disorders encountered because the system can access knowledge, that exceeds that of the doctor, who cannot be a specialist in every field. Above all, the system turns to account reference values and numerous factors of variation, in particular, medicational, much more precisely than a doctor would be able to do. The current prototype is being expanded, since it presently exploits only a part of the results. |
