Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 13An Expert System for the Diagnosis of Sexually Transmitted Diseases - Esstd(Ios Press, 2017) Thompson, Temitope; Sowunmi, Olaperi; Misra, Sanjay; Fernandez-Sanz, Luis; Crawford, Broderick; Soto, RicardoOver 93 million people get ill with sexually transmitted diseases in sub-Saharan Africa. However, research has shown that people with sexually transmitted diseases find it difficult to share their problem with a physician due to societal discrimination in Africa. Due to this problem, we have implemented a medical expert system for diagnosing sexually transmitted diseases (ESSTD) that maintains the anonymity of the individuals. The patients diagnose themselves by answering questions provided by the system. This paper presents the design and development of the system. Forward chaining rules were used to implement the knowledge base and the system is easily accessible on mobile platforms. The Java Expert System Shell was used for its inference engine and the system was validated by domain experts. It is useful because it helps to maintain anonymity for patients with STD.Article Citation - WoS: 41Citation - Scopus: 44Some New Fixed Point Theorems in Fuzzy Metric Spaces(Ios Press, 2014) Roldan-Lopez-de-Hierro, Antonio-Francisco; Karapinar, Erdal; Manro, SaurabhThe aim of this paper is to introduce a new class of contractive mappings such as fuzzy alpha-psi-contractive mappings and to present some fixed point theorems for such mappings in complete fuzzy metric space in the sense of Kramosil and Michalek. The results presented in this paper substantially generalize and extend several comparable results in the existing literature. Also, some examples are given to support the usability of our results.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 16On Cyclic (ψ, Φ)-Contractions in Kaleva-seikkala's Type Fuzzy Metric Spaces(Ios Press, 2014) Jleli, Mohamed; Karapinar, Erdal; Samet, BessemIn this paper we introduce the notion of cyclic (psi, phi)-contractions on fuzzy metric spaces in the sense of Kaleva and Seikkala, and we discuss the existence and uniqueness of fixed points for mappings satisfying such type of contractions.
