  • Abstract
    A guided interactive approach to computer-aided medical diagnosis is presented. This approach is based on dynamic taxonomies, a knowledge management model that allows the guided interactive exploration of complex information bases. The problem of the diagnosis of pathologies is recasted as a problem of exploring and thinning out candidate pathologies on the basis of symptoms and other observable features.
