METHODOLOGY FOR BUILDING A COMPUTERIZED ADVISORY EXPERT SYSTEM FOR THE DIAGNOSIS OF EPILEPSY IN CHILDREN

  • Published:
Biomedical Engineering Aims and scope

Abstract

Design principles for a medical expert system and a methodology for automated diagnosis of childhood epilepsy have been developed using a decision tree based on medical logic. This expert system is intended to provide intelligent support to practicing neurologists in interpreting data from clinical examination of patients and making preliminary diagnoses.
