A fuzzy expert system approach for real-time monitoring of endemic diseases

Abstract In this paper, an architecture of LEPDIAG—a knowledge based system for on-line diagnosis and for monitoring prognosis of leprosy—is presented. The important features of LEPDIAG that have been detailed are a multiple expert environment, a homeostatic expert containing the model of immune reaction, a performance evaluator that can compare the observed signs and symptoms with those predicted by homeostatic expert, and a prognostic expert which optimizes the management schedule for the patients. The entire system is built around a fuzzy expert system building tool FRUIT to deal with the imprecise knowledge.
