Abstract
Interactive or display-oriented pattern recognition algorithms can be utilized with advantage in the design of efficient computer-aided diagnostic systems. These visual methods may provide a powerful alternative to the pure numerical approach of data analysis for diagnostic and prognostic purposes. Functional as well as pictorial representation techniques are discussed in conjunction with some newly developed semi-fuzzy classification techniques. The blend between the two methodologies leads to the design of a very flexible, yet powerful diagnostic system. Results obtained when applying the proposed system on a group of patients representing several classes of liver dysfunction are also reported, to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.
