Transformation of Arden Syntax's medical logic modules into ArdenML for a business rules management system.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
INTRODUCTION: Arden Syntax is a Health Level Seven International (HL7) standard language that is used for representing medical knowledge as logic statements. Arden Syntax Markup Language (ArdenML) is a new representation of Arden Syntax based on XML....

A decision support system to improve medical diagnosis using a combination of k-medoids clustering based attribute weighting and SVM.

Journal of medical systems
The use of machine learning tools has become widespread in medical diagnosis. The main reason for this is the effective results obtained from classification and diagnosis systems developed to help medical professionals in the diagnosis phase of disea...

Predicting Renal Failure Progression in Chronic Kidney Disease Using Integrated Intelligent Fuzzy Expert System.

Computational and mathematical methods in medicine
BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a covert disease. Accurate prediction of CKD progression over time is necessary for reducing its costs and mortality rates. The present study proposes an adaptive neurofuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for pre...
