Intelligent Disease Self-Management with Mobile Technology

Cost-effective mobile healthcare must consider not only technological performance but also the division of responsibilities between the patient and care provider, the context of the patient’s condition, and ways to implement patient decision support and tailored interaction.

Supporting active patient self-care

We are currently confronted with a trend of increased pressure on health care, with associated increasing financial costs, due to an aging society and the expected increase in the prevalence of disability and chronic disease. Finding measures for cost reduction, without sacrificing quality of care, is a significant healthcare challenge....

A new probabilistic constraint logic programming language based on a generalised distribution semantics

Abstract Probabilistic logics combine the expressive power of logic with the ability to reason with uncertainty. Several probabilistic logic languages have been proposed in the past, each of them with their own features. We focus on a class of probabilistic logic based on Sato's distribution semantics, which extends logic programming with...
