The health and productivity of animals, as well as farmers’ financial well-being, can be significantly impacted by cattle illnesses. Accurate and timely diagnosis is therefore essential for effective disease management and control. In this study, we consider the development of models and algorithms for diagnosing diseases in cattle based on Sugeno’s fuzzy inference. To achieve this goal, an analytical review of mathematical methods for diagnosing animal diseases and soft computing methods for solving classification problems was performed. Based on the clinical signs of diseases, an algorithm was proposed to build a knowledge base to diagnose diseases in cattle. This algorithm serves to increase the reliability of informative features. Based on the proposed algorithm, a program for diagnosing diseases in cattle was developed. Afterward, a computational experiment was performed. The results of the computational experiment are additional tools for decision-making on the diagnosis of a disease in cattle. Using the developed program, a Sugeno fuzzy logic model was built for diagnosing diseases in cattle. The analysis of the adequacy of the results obtained from the Sugeno fuzzy logic model was performed. The processes of solving several existing (model) classification and evaluation problems and comparing the results with several existing algorithms are considered. The results obtained enable it to be possible to promptly diagnose and perform certain therapeutic measures as well as reduce the time of data analysis and increase the efficiency of diagnosing cattle. The scientific novelty of this study is the creation of an algorithm for building a knowledge base and improving the algorithm for constructing the Sugeno fuzzy logic model for diagnosing diseases in cattle. The findings of this study can be widely used in veterinary medicine in solving the problems of diagnosing diseases in cattle and substantiating decision-making in intelligent systems.
Today, the detection of non-communicable animal diseases, the analysis of experimental data and the construction of a mathematical model is one of the main problems. In the article a method for determining the type of disease in cattle using a fuzzy inference rule algorithm is discussed. In our country, diseases with ketosis, microelementosis, ostradistraphia and secondary ostradithraphy in livestock, especially cattle, are determined by errors in determining the type of disease due to their similar symptoms. Since the symptoms of these diseases are interrelated and one of them can cause the other, solving this problem using fuzzy rule algorithms helps to reduce the error in determining the type of disease.
