ZAPATA-JAEAMILLO, CARLOS MARIO. Cancer Patient Model Based on Pre-Conceptual Schemas: Beyond Encounters and Cancer Specificities. Ing. Desarro. [online]. 2025, vol.43, n.2, pp.177-199.  Epub 01-Jul-2025. ISSN 0122-3461.  https://doi.org/10.14482/inde.43.02.365.963.

The first stage for solving complex problems involves their representation into a model. Some cancer patient models have been developed to represent the environment surrounding the patient and her characteristics. However, such models are far from knowledge representations for some reasons: generality, specificity to certain cancer types, focus on the patient/encounter, and segregated terminology/syntax. In this paper, we propose a model of cancer patients to overcome the problems above. We select the so-called pre-conceptual schemas as the knowledge representation paradigm because they can be instantiated for resembling details of the model and integrated with standards about medicine and cancer modeling.

Palabras clave : cancer; knowledge representation; model; patient; pre-conceptual schemas.
