Abstract
In recent years, we have developed an expert system for diagnosis of lung diseases using cased based reasoning [7]. At present, the case base of this system consists of 1026 patient records of 18 types of lung diseases and it applies successfully at the Vietnam National Institute of Tuberculosis and Lung diseases. An improvement of the case based reasoning for medical diagnosis using fuzzy set theory (Nguyen H. P. et al. 2000) is proposed by including the importance of features. A feature in the former work is a symptom and all importance of symptoms for the disease take value 1 that mean the important degree of all symptoms are the same. In this paper an important degree for each symptom according to each disease is included. The fitness of this method is confirmed by experiments in the real medical applications.
