Abstract

The use of Multi-agent systems (MAS) in healthcare domain has been widely recognized. But, due to uncertainty in medical domain, it is difficult to decide the appropriate agent with whom to collaborate in order to find the proper diagnosis for a given set of sign-symptoms. To overcome this problem, a Bayesian network (BN) based decision making framework is presented. The proposed methodology is applied to an Intelligent Pediatric Agent (IPA), a part of MAS for child care [1].
