Implementation Combination of Case-Based Reasoning and Rule-Based Reasoning for Diagnosis of Herpes Disease

The skin is the outermost part of the body that is sensitive to external stimuli. One of the skin diseases that can be transmitted is herpes. Belated in understanding herpes skin disease can be fatal to sufferers because herpes disease that is too late to be treated can affect more serious diseases. Therefore, we need a mobile-based application that can identify the infectious skin disease herpes. An expert system is one of the fields of science that can solve a problem in a system. The expert system has several methods that can be used, namely case-based reasoning (CBR) and rule-based reasoning (RBR) methods. CBR can be used to solve a new problem by utilizing previous problems and RBR is a method that can be used to solve a problem using a rule base, where each rule is obtained from experts and literature studies. By applying the combination method of CBR and RBR which can be used to diagnose herpes skin disease, it is hoped that it will prevent the spread of herpes disease from spreading.
