Temporal reasoning and query answering with preferences and probabilities for medical decision support

作者:

Highlights:

• Decision support based on clinical guidelines is important in medicine.

• For comorbid patients, guideline interactions along time must be detected.

• We provide a temporal framework supporting both preferences and probabilities.

• We provide temporal reasoning and query answering facilities.

• Temporal reasoning with preferences and probabilities provides a flexible support.
