It is part of a decision theoretic expert system [25,27] called PTA (Pneumonia Therapy Advisor) Note that this problem domain is closely related to that of the well known MYCIN system, an expert system developed in the late 1970s at Stanford University that offered advice on the diagnosis and treatment of sepsis and meningitis [9,40,46] However, the ....

....There are presently no comprehensive knowledge engineering methodologies available that can be used in building a decision theoretic network. In this paper, a further elaboration of a preliminary methodology for building decision theoretic expert systems for treatment management, as described in [7], is discussed. It is also investigated how decision theoretic expert systems can be used to deal with a number of questions clinicians are likely to find important: optimal treatment selection, prognostic assessment and generating profiles for specific treatment outcomes. Since all these ....
....2.2 Identification of Relevant Variables The selection of variables for a decision theoretic network is influenced by the adopted view on the medical domain concerned. Often, knowledge about (patho)physiological mechanisms is used to guide the process of gathering relevant variables (cf. [6, 7]) For the gastric NHL model, however, we have chosen to incorporate only those variables into the model that are widely used by clinicians. The relevance of most of these variables is supported by literature on prognostic factors in primary gastric NHL [2, 10] First, the information used in the ....

....under uncertainty, the framework of decision theoretic networks couples expressiveness to mathematical correctness. The framework is therefore especially suited as a basis for decision theoretic expert systems. In building a decision theoretic network, the origins of the framework are reflected [13]. As with any expert system, knowledge has to be acquired from domain experts, literature and databases. As such, the knowledge acquisition process accords with the methodologies for knowledge engineering proposed in recent years (cf. 16] These knowledge engineering methods have to be ....
