چکیده

In this paper, a CBR approach that deals with missing data is presented. In the conversational ISOR system different knowledge sources are involved, including medical experts. In the case base rules and formulae are stored that support the restoration of numerous missing values. The task is to restore missing values in an observed medical data set. The presented method is used for a set of physiological and biochemical measurements of dialysis patients. The measurements were taken at four time points during a year in which the patients participated at an especially developed physical training program. To analyse the obtained data a restoration of missing values is really necessary.

Explaining Exceptional Cases Focusing on Solving the Missing Data Problem

In medical practice and in knowledge-based systems too, it is necessary to consider exceptions and to deal with them appropriately. In this paper, a system is presented, which helps to explain cases that do not fit to a theoretical hypothesis. It is proposed to combine Case-Based Reasoning with a statistical model, where Case-Based Reasoning is used to explain the exceptional cases. Additionall...
