Computer architecture and process of patient generation, evolution, and simulation for computer based testing system using bayesian networks as a scripting language

摘要

A method and system for patient generation and evolution for a computer-based testing system and/or expert system. One or more belief networks, which describe parallel health state networks are accessed by a user or a computer. A knowledge base, at least in part, is scripted from the one or more belief networks by the computer. A model patient at least in part, is instantiated by the computer from the scripted knowledge base. Optionally, the model patient is evolved by the computer in accordance with the parallel health state networks and responsive to a received course of action.
