Cloud-Based Bayesian Inference for Online People Health Status Assessment

Abstract:

The applications on assessment of people health status by using physiological monitoring and measurement platform have sprung up in recent years. How to design an assessment tool and provide the diagnosis result to the users by analyzing received fusion data from user side and the given domain knowledge is a critical issue in such application. This study will focus on cloud-based medical decision analysis by constructing inference model derived from incremental Bayesian network. The Bayesian network is established by physiological data retrieved from users, and the obtained report of the health status assessment can be used to facilitate user's self-health management and disease prevention.
