| Abstract | In this paper we present the preliminary results of application of Fuzzy Markup Language (FML) to suspect a non-common disease. Under non-common diseases we understand rare diseases. From the broad point of view this problem belongs to the computer-assisted decision support in medical diagnostics and can be supported by fuzzy logic controllers. We can use conventional methods to diagnose a rare disease if it can be exhibited by outstanding symptoms. For example, there are several search machines and data banks that allow to find a rare disease clearly exhibited by a patient's symptoms/signs. But it is very difficult to diagnose a rare disease if it masks as a common disease. Diagnostic of rare diseases is connected with lack, uncertainty and imprecision of knowledge, medical mistake and even medical failure. Additionally, very often a common disease is also established with some degree of belief, thus, the expressions such as “it is possible that a patient has a particular disease” rather often present in the daily medical practice. It is clear that if we would know the common diseases, then deviations from them can be considered as a sign of non-common diseases. In this paper we investigate such deviations with the help of FML. We show how FML mechanism can be adjusted to suspect a rare disease, and discuss the appropriateness of the available operators. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
