Title :
Interval-based reasoning in medical diagnosis
Abstract :
We present the interval valued inference structures developed earlier (W. Bandler and L.J. Kohout, 1980; L.J. Kohout and I. Stabile, 1993; K.M. Yew and L.J. Kohout, 1996) and the framework in which the comparative studies were made in a medical domain, particularly in the identification of body systems. Performance metrics developed by K.M. Yew and L.J. Kohout (1996) were used for evaluation and results of the comparative studies summarized
