Abstract
BACKGROUND: Electronic Health Records (EHR) are the foundation of much medical research. However, analyzing the text data of EHRs directly is an challenging task. Therefore, physicians often use questionnaires to first convert text data to structured data. Filling in these questionnaires requires a considerable amount of time and medical knowledge. It is a significant task to develop an algorithm to make computers fill out these questionnaires automatically.
