Fuzzy case-based reasoning approach for finding COVID-19 patients priority in hospitals at source shortage period

作者：

Highlights：

• Using Fuzzy CBR approach to prioritize patients for treatment is a new endeavor.

• Proposed fuzzy CBR approach, defined function for all factors by sigmoid function.

• Cobweb model cede a solution by avoiding the high influence of a specific factor.

• Helps to prioritize treatment by considering age, severity, and comorbidities, etc.

• For medical professionals, helps in critical moment of making complex decisions.
