文摘

In this paper, based on a novel informational perspective and a fundamental law of MIEP, we suggest an informational reality for meridian in TCM and deduce its evolutionary dynamic equation. By self-organizing artificial neural network as algorithm, we can resolve the dynamical equation of meridian to assess its properties and diagnose the healthy characteristics of human body. By three practical clinical cases, we use this theoretical model to assess the evolutionary properties of meridian systems and demonstrate that this model has its application value in practice. It is shown that by structural parameter ζkζk and associated radar charts, the evolutionary process of human meridian can be well simulated and quantitative clinical regulations or predictions can be accordingly analyzed in multiple hierarchies, which may open a fresh door of instructing diagnosis and treatment in TCM.
