Reviews

Targeting scientists, doctors, engineers, physicians, and researchers, and the infrastructure that supports them, this book incorporates various disease diagnosing techniques using fuzzy expert systems (FES), which converts user-supplied human language rules to their mathematical equivalents, thus providing quicker and cheaper solutions to problems involving ambiguity and uncertainty. Twelve chapters are divided into three sections: concepts and approaches; innovations and technologies; applications and cases.
