KNOWLEDGE BASE DATA GENERATION AND MANAGEMENT TO SUPPORT AUTOMATED E-HEALTH DIAGNOSIS SYSTEMS
First Claim
1. A method for facilitating the generation of a knowledge base that may be integrated into an automated e-health diagnosis system in order to provide real-time decision support, the method executing on at least one processor of a computing device, comprising the steps of:
- (a) providing a graphical user interface (GUI), on the computing device, to an author, wherein such GUI allows said author to enter content related to at least one symptom and at least once associated diagnosis;
(b) storing, by a token authority located within the computing device, said content; and
(c) deploying said content, in the form of an XML file, to at least one local data store for use by the automated e-health diagnosis system.

Abstract
Systems, methods and computer program products for the generation and management of knowledge base data to support automated e-health diagnosis systems are disclosed. Such systems, methods and computer program products provide the ability for a subject matter expert, without computer programming skills, to generate a knowledge base consisting of XML code that may be integrated into an automated e-health diagnosis system in order to provide real-time decision support. The subject matter expert may use the present invention, for example, to identify the symptoms that are relevant to a particular diagnosis, weigh symptoms relative to a given diagnosis, detail the rationale for particular decisions, and provide detailed treatment recommendations with regard to each individual diagnosis. The output of this tool may be an XML knowledge base that may be integrated, in a plug and play fashion, with the e-health diagnosis system.
