Aparna S. Varde, K. Lorne Massey, Heather Wood · 2005
In this paper, we present an expert system-oriented methodology for the diagnosis of thyroid dysfunction. The architecture of the rule-based expert system is outlined. The utility of a four-level classification scheme for diagnostic rules is illustrated with examples. System output from a trial consultation is presented. The present performance of the expert system is very encouraging.
