US Patent:
2014002, Jan 23, 2014
Filed:
Jul 17, 2013
Appl. No.:
13/944802
Inventors:
Oliver James Lindhiem - Pittsburgh PA, US
Assignee:
University of Pittsburgh - Of the Commonwealth of System of Higher Education - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
G06N 5/04
US Classification:
706 52
Abstract:
The likelihood of a disorder can be determined using a variety of techniques. One or more exhibited symptoms may be obtained for a patient. The likelihood that each symptom will be exhibited for the disorder can be computed, and a posterior probability of the disorder given the exhibited symptoms can be computed from the likelihood of the symptoms. Based on the resulting posterior probability of the disorder, a more accurate determination can be made of whether the patient is suffering from the disorder.
