An expert system for evaluation of sports injuries (abstract only)
Jeanette Gardner, J. H. Morrel, K. E. Lagle · 1987
A knowledge-base system was developed using the INSIGHT 2+ rule-based expert system tool. The user is questioned about the area of the injury, such as the foot, ankle, knee, or elbow. The inference engine then selects the appropriate knowledge base. Symptoms of the injury are requested from the user, who is also instructed to perform manual tests on the injured part. The input is evaluated through a set of rules, and the exact type of injury is evaluated as well as the severity. A recommended treatment is then suggested.
