Abstract

DIABRA (DIABetes Risk Assessment) is a knowledge-based expert system developed to aid individuals to assess their chance for getting Type 2 diabetes. The system core is a quantitative model, implemented by Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) mechanism, to evaluate the developed scenarios. The acquired knowledge as scenarios are scored by AHP mechanism and represented in the DIABRA. The validation results show the expert system gives a highly satisfactory performance when compared to human experts. In addition, the computerized system shows additional advantages which can be used as helpful tool to reduce the chance of getting Type 2 diabetes.
