Applications of Soft Computing Techniques for Pulmonary Tuberculosis Diagnosis

Recently, several interesting research studies have been reported on soft computing approaches. Soft computing approaches are solving several kinds of problems and provide alternative solutions. Different Soft computing techniques or approaches have been applied in medical care data for effective diagnosis prediction. Those approaches implemented on diseases diagnosing of pulmonary tuberculosis and obtaining better results in comparison to traditional approaches. This approach is an aggregation of methodologies that were combined various model and provide solutions to those problems that are difficult to handle in real-world situations. Researchers keep developing of an accurate and reliable intelligent decision-making method for the construction of pulmonary tuberculosis diagnosis system. The existing diagnostic testing system procedures are not only tedious, they also take a long time to analyze. Therefore, the diagnosis of tuberculosis still requires further improvements to new rapid and accurate diagnostic model and techniques that enable higher sensitivity and specificity to be achieved, thus promoting disease control and Prevention. State of the art makes approaches to soft computing more powerful, more reliable and more efficient. The importance of this review paper is to distinguish the different soft computing approaches used to support pulmonary tuberculosis disease diagnosis, identification, prediction and intelligent classification. In the field, researchers and medical practitioners look forward to using approaches to soft computing. Some of these are an artificial neural network, genetic algorithm, and support vector machine, fuzzy logic etc. latest methods in the diagnostic field uses artificial neural network. Some of the other benefits of Artificial neural network is an easy - to - optimize, resources and adoptable non - linear modeling of expansive data sets and predictive inference accuracy demonstrating that artificial neural network could serve as a valuable decision support tool in various fields, including medicine
