Abstract

BACKGROUND: Asthma is a heterogeneous disease with a diverse array of phenotypes that differ in inflammatory characteristics and severity. Identifying and classifying phenotypes in the real world could provide a foundation to improve and personalize asthma management. Leveraging machine learning in analyzing electronic health records (EHRs) provides an opportunity to identify real-world asthma phenotypes.
