DIET

DIET is a dietary recommendation expert system developed for dietitians. The system uses dietary information on patients obtained from five categories: demographics, laboratory results, medical conditions, medications, and eating characteristics to make dietary plans. To combine the effects of each condition, a composition approach is adopted to find the most appropriate diet.

The system is implemented in OPS5 and was developed at Cheng Kung Univ., Tainan,Taiwan.
