Comparison of inference results of two otoneurological expert systems.
In this paper, two different otoneurological expert systems, Vertigo and One, the latter developed by us, are considered. The expert systems are evaluated as regards their correctness in reasoning diagnoses. In the light of our data collected from randomly selected test patients, One, being a newer technique, is more effective, since it could infer more cases than vertigo did. All the data was also evaluated and diagnosed by otoneurological specialists, independently of the expert systems, to guarantee objectivity in evaluation of the results of the expert systems.
