Abstract

Fuzzy expert system is an artificial intelligence tool that helps to resolve the decision-making problem with the existence of uncertainty and plays an important role in medicine for symptomatic diagnostic remedies. In this chapter, construction of Fuzzy expert system is the focused, which helps to diagnosis disease. Fuzzy expert system is constructed by using the fuzzification to convert crisp values into fuzzy values. Fuzzy expert system consists of fuzzy inference, implication, and aggregation. The system contains a set of rules with fuzzy operators T-norm and of T-Conorm. By applying the fuzzy inference mechanism, diagnosis of disease becomes simple for medical practitioners and patients. Defuzzification method is adopted to convert the fuzzy values into crisp values. With crisp values, the knowledge regarding the disease is given to medical doctors and patients. Application of Fuzzy expert system to diagnosis of disease is mainly focused on in this chapter.
