ABSTRACT: Nowadays, mobile technology makes it
possible for us to realize processes in a relatively short amount of time,
showing the user friendly and efficient interfaces that any person is capable
of adapting to. Continuing this trend, we develop a mobile application that
aids in giving an early diagnosis of Influenza and Dengue, two diseases that
affect approximately 5% of the world population (in the case of Dengue) and 5%
- 15% of the northern hemisphere (in the case of influenza). Our application
consists of an expert system based on fuzzy logic that analyzes symptoms
introduced by the user and formulates a diagnosis in approximately 2 - 4
minutes. This system considerably reduced the diagnostic time, improving the
recuperation process from these diseases due to their early detection.
