Abstract:
The concept of new generation in area of information systems is automatic understanding systems (AUS) to the attention of the computer sciences community as a new possibility for the systems analysis and design. The novelty of this new idea is in the previously used method of automatic understanding in the area of medical image analysis, classification and interpretation, to a more general and needed area of systems analysis. The concept of the AUS systems approach is, in essence, different from other approaches such as, for example, those based on neural networks, pattern analysis, image interpretation or machine learning. AUS enables the determination of the meaning of analysed data, both numeric and descriptive. Cognitive methods, on which the AUS concept and construct are based, have roots in the psychological and neurophysiological processes of understanding and describing analysed data as they take place in the human brain.
