APPROXIMATE REASONING IN CANCER SURGERY

Abstract

The compositional rule of inference, grounded on the modus ponens law, is one of the most effective fuzzy systems. We modify the classical version of the rule (Zadeh, 1973, 1979) to propose an original model, which concerns determining an operation chance for gastric cancer patients. The operation prognosis will be dependent on values of biological markers indicating the progress of the disease.
