This article presents the procedures for clinical inference of a multivariate algorithm for diagnostic information systems. It complements an earlier paper by the authors which described the procedures for data-acquisition and storage of the proposed algorithm. Clinical inference is viewed as a twofold process of (1) acquiring and sampling informat...

Most Decision Support Systems (DSSs) in medicine have been developed in hospital environments, for use in hospitals. Only a few are designed for use by General Practitioners (GPs) in primary care. The work reported in this paper has a twofold aim: [List: see text]

Methods and tools were developed and designed to give assistance when creating and maintaining decision support systems in which the knowledge part is represented as rules written according to the Arden Syntax. Methods have also been designed and developed to support the process of adding decision support systems to clinical systems.

We study the problem of scheduling a Flexible Flow System (FFS) while utilizing machine learning techniques. Specifically, the effect of incorporating Feature Construction in an existing adaptive learning-based decision support system is investigated. The primary purpose of constructing features is to increase the efficiency of obtaining informatio...

This paper presents a few of the research and development activities performed at MARINTEK (Norwegian Marine Technology Research Institute AS, a part of the SINTEF Group) in the field of condition monitoring, fault diagnosis and maintenance planning during the last 10 years. The activities comprise the development of a rule-based diagnosis system, ...

Multistage simulation is employed to help predicting the future actions of collaborating or competing agents, interacting in the mini-world covered by a temporal database. At each stage, their goals are inferred from the current situation, with the help of rules designed to model their behavioural patterns, in turn extracted from records of their p...

Introduction Medical data, disseminated in the Web or available in other digital forms, usually include clinical information obtained by the case history, signals related to bodily functions which are collected from in vivo diagnostic procedures, data acquired through in vitro diagnostic tests, images related to the morphology and the functions of ...

Introduction Setting-up a Monitoring System outside an Intensive Care Unit or even a Hospital, is often necessary or at least desirable. Therefore, a portable, multipurpose, quasi real-time, and fitting to the Internet Patient Monitoring System was developed. Methods The system is composed of two PCs, equipped with data acquisition and A/D-converte...

Detailed three dimensional models are nowadays frequently used in cross-cutting (bucking) tree stems into logs and in breakdown processes of logs into boards and flitches. Such models require increasingly sophisticated optimization models to assist planners (or automated decision support systems) in decision making. In this paper we develop two tec...
