Learning Portuguese Clinical Word Embeddings: A Multi-Specialty and Multi-Institutional Corpus of Clinical Narratives Supporting a Downstream Biomedical Task.

Studies in health technology and informatics
In this paper, we trained a set of Portuguese clinical word embedding models of different granularities from multi-specialty and multi-institutional clinical narrative datasets. Then, we assessed their impact on a downstream biomedical NLP task of Ur...

Word Embedding for French Natural Language in Healthcare: A Comparative Study.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Structuring raw medical documents with ontology mapping is now the next step for medical intelligence. Deep learning models take as input mathematically embedded information, such as encoded texts. To do so, word embedding methods can represent every...

Text Classification to Inform Suicide Risk Assessment in Electronic Health Records.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Assessing a patient's risk of an impending suicide attempt has been hampered by limited information about dynamic factors that change rapidly in the days leading up to an attempt. The storage of patient data in electronic health records (EHRs) has fa...

Automatic Methods to Extract Prescription Status Quality Measures from Unstructured Health Records.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Hospital systems frequently implement quality measures to quantify healthcare processes and patient outcomes. One such measure that has previously been used is the Surgical Care Improvement Project (SCIP) quality measure of perioperative beta blocker...

Graft Rejection Prediction Following Kidney Transplantation Using Machine Learning Techniques: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Kidney transplantation is recommended for patients with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). However, complications, such as graft rejection are hard to predict due to donor and recipient variability. This study discusses the role of machine learning (ML)...

The MeSH-Gram Neural Network Model: Extending Word Embedding Vectors with MeSH Concepts for Semantic Similarity.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Eliciting semantic similarity between concepts remains a challenging task. Recent approaches founded on embedding vectors have gained in popularity as they have risen to efficiently capture semantic relationships. The underlying idea is that two word...

Clinical Safety Incident Taxonomy Performance on C4.5 Decision Tree and Random Forest.

Studies in health technology and informatics
The paper applies an artificial intelligence centered method to classify 12 clinical safety incident (CSI) classes. The paper aims to establish a taxonomy that classifies the CSI reports into their correct classes automatically and with high accuracy...

Clinical Decision Support Systems: From the Perspective of Small and Imbalanced Data Set.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Clinical decision support systems are data analysis software that supports health professionals' decision - making the process to reach their ultimate outcome, taking into account patient information. However, the need for decision support systems ca...

Enhancing Precision in Gesture Detection for Hand Recovery After Injury Using Leap Motion and Machine Learning.

Studies in health technology and informatics
This paper presents an improved solution for detecting gestures with a better precision using the Leap Motion sensor and Machine Learning support. A neural network is trained to recognize a hand rotation gesture expressing the grade of recovery, with...

Named Entity Recognition and Classification for Medical Prospectuses.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Structuring and processing natural language is a growing challenge in the medical field. Researchers are looking for new ways to extract knowledge to create databases and applications to help doctors treat patients and minimize medical errors. A very...
