Abstract :
This paper concentrates on the decision process based on multi-agent system theory; the holonic paradigm, and swarm intelligence techniques, Bayesian probability since, among others, uncertainty is an inherent feature of a medical diagnostic process with highly reliable results. The presented approach focuses on reaching the optimal medical diagnosis with the minimum risk under the given uncertainty. Additional factors that play an important role are the required time for the decision process and the produced costs.
