Fuzzy Expert System to Diagnose Diabetes Using S Weights for S Fuzzy Assessment Methodology

Abstract

In the field of medicine decision making it is very important to deal with uncertainties, knowledge, and information. Decision making depends upon the experience, capability, and the observation of doctors. In the case of complex situations, it is very tough to give a correct decision. So computer-based procedure is very much essential. Fuzzy Expert System is used for decision making in the field of medicine. Fuzzy expert system consists of the following elements, fuzzification interface, S Fuzzy Assessment Methodology, and defuzzification. S Fuzzy Assessment Methodology uses the K Ratio to find overlap between membership function. To measure the similarity between fuzzy set, fuzzy number, and fuzzy rule, T Fuzzy similarity is used. Similar fuzzy sets are merged to form a common set; a new methodology was framed to identify the similarity between fuzzy rules with fuzzy numbers, and S Weights are to manage uncertainty in rules. S Weights use consequent and antecedent part of each rule. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm was implemented using MATLAB Fuzzy Logic tool box to construct a fuzzy expert system to diagnose diabetes.
