Abstract:
The outbreak of a new major infectious disease often has a severe impact on human health and society. Developing appropriate treatments is a societal concern. A case-based decision making model can potentially generate therapy alternatives, but has also revealed two challenges, specifically, ensuring precise case similarity measurement and reasonable selection of the most suitable historical cases. Hence, a decision-making model with similarity measurement for case selection is introduced to generate treatments. First, case information is extended to probabilistic hesitant fuzzy sets with uncertainty, and case similarity measurement based on an interval evidential reasoning approach is developed, which not only handles heterogeneous information effectively but also guarantees accurate retrieval results. Then, an attribute determination model is constructed from many factors to improve the rationality of the results and enable interpretability. Furthermore, an improved gained and lost dominance score method is used to determine the most suitable historical case and an alternative target case is produced, which ensures the fairness and rationality of the decision results. Finally, a case study involving generation of therapy alternatives for patients with mild COVID-19 is provided to demonstrate the procedure employed in the proposed method and comparative analysis is conducted to verify its advantages.
