Adverse drug reaction (ADR) reporting is a major component of drug safety monitoring; its input will, however, only be optimized if systems can manage to deal with its tremendous flow of information, based primarily on unstructured text fields. The a...
BACKGROUND: Diagnostic or procedural coding of clinical notes aims to derive a coded summary of disease-related information about patients. Such coding is usually done manually in hospitals but could potentially be automated to improve the efficiency...
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to develop and evaluate effective methods that can normalize diagnosis and procedure terms written by physicians to standard concepts in International Classification of Diseases(ICD) in Chinese, with the goal to facilitate ...

The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) not only serves as the bedrock for health statistics but also provides a holistic overview of every health aspect of life. This study aims to facilitate the computer-assisted coding of the 11th revis...
Obsessive and Compulsive Symptoms (OCS) or Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in the context of schizophrenia or related disorders are of clinical importance as these are associated with a range of adverse outcomes. Natural Language Processing (NLP)...
This work presents a two-stage deep learning system for Named Entity Recognition (NER) and Relation Extraction (RE) from medical texts. These tasks are a crucial step to many natural language understanding applications in the biomedical domain. Autom...
OBJECTIVE: Electronic medical records (EMRs) are manually annotated by healthcare professionals and specialized medical coders with a standardized set of alphanumeric diagnosis and procedure codes, specifically from the International Classification o...
