Description:
This project is about a system
that helps in the diagnosis of neurologic disorders. It is an AI
project that uses reasoning techniques to assist the diagnosis
process. A person will require at least some familiarity with the
neurology domain to use the system. This is because the system is
built around clinical examination terms and medical jargons that
common people are not familiar with.
The system implements two major reasoning techniques that human beings
use to assist the diagnosis process. Reasoning performed by recalling
the theories that we have learnt is called rule-based reasoning and
that by remembering similar cases or scenarios is case-based
reasoning. Rule-based reasoning is implemented in the system by
encoding the domain knowledge into the database and case-based
reasoning is implemented such that the system keeps learning as it
encounters new cases.
