Abstract
Reasoning is a crucial task performed by the
inference engine of the clinical decision support systems,
which combines medical knowledge with patient specific data
and generates relevant decisions. There are different
reasoning methods, suitable for different knowledge
representations and application area. This paper reviews the
most common methods and describes how they are used in
real systems. Furthermore, it outlines the remaining
weaknesses of the reasoning mechanisms and provides
directions for future research and improvements.
