Abstract		Machine learning technology is well suited for the induction of diagnostic and prognostic rules and solving of small and specialized diagnostic and prognostic problems. The medical diagnostic knowledge can be automatically derived from the description of cases solved inthe past. However, inspite of huge development of the biomedical technology, the diagnostic accuracy is in many cases rather low. The reason is that medical instruments do not provide enough relevant informationfor reliable diagnosis. Recently developed technology for recording the human bioelectromagnetic field using the Gas Discharge Visualisation (GDV) technique provide a completely new information about the biophysical and psychical state of the patient that could in some cases drastically improve the diagnostic process. However, the problem is the interpretation of the GDV images. By using machine learning we could alleviate that problem by means of automatically generating diagnostic rules from GDV images from the records of patients with known diagnoses. We have got the Russian Crown-TV Kirlian camera, we plan to develop an expert system for diagnosis from GDV images, and we are open for collaboration and welcome the researchers from various fields for joint projects on studying those exciting phenomena.
