Abstract:
We describe a medical diagnosis algorithm that has been implemented and is available in a website. A patient simulator shows that all build-in diseases are correctly identified. The algorithm is generic in the sense it can be applied where the equivalent of diseases and symptoms can be identified. We discuss several settings in which such a system can be deployed: self-help, physician monitored, call center monitored, etc. The e Record maintained by the algorithm can be used for additional symbolic reasoning
