Abstract

Mathematical epidemiological models do not take into account that diagnostic reasoning plays a key role in Statistical Medical Data(SMD) Production. As a consequence, discrepancies between model-based predictions and statistical data are regarded merely as noise. In this paper an analysis of the connections between diagnostic reasoning with both patients’ behavior and SMD production is carried out by taking into account some results of Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Science in Medicine. An overall model is suggested which can account for some aspects of temporal and/or geographical variation of the number of diseases.
