Abstract
In the book we present a novel model for classification, diagnosis and risk evaluation of high blood pressure using new hybrid intelligent systems, combining Modular Neural Networks, Fuzzy Logic and Genetic Algorithms. We focused on the development of hybrid intelligent systems; for classification of blood pressure levels using the experience of cardiologists and the guidelines of European Society of Cardiology, and for constructing a fuzzy logic classification method based on patient’s Blood pressure.
