Application of CBR on viral fever detection system(VFDS)

In this paper an approach for developing knowledge-based viral fever detection system based on the methodology of case-based reasoning (CBR) is described. CBR is an approach for solving problems based on solutions of similar past case. Cases are stored in a database of cases called a case base (CB). To solve an actual problem a notation of similarities between problems is used to retrieve similar cases from the case base. The solutions of these similar cases are then used as starting points for solving the actual problem. This paper discusses on a viral fever detection system (VFDS) which helps the hospital or medical centre to detect the type of disease the patient is suffering from after being affected by some particular viral fever with its respective symptoms.
