A novel fuzzy logic-based image steganography method to ensure medical data security.

Computers in biology and medicine
This study aims to secure medical data by combining them into one file format using steganographic methods. The electroencephalogram (EEG) is selected as hidden data, and magnetic resonance (MR) images are also used as the cover image. In addition to...

Creation of a new longitudinal corpus of clinical narratives.

Journal of biomedical informatics
The 2014 i2b2/UTHealth Natural Language Processing (NLP) shared task featured a new longitudinal corpus of 1304 records representing 296 diabetic patients. The corpus contains three cohorts: patients who have a diagnosis of coronary artery disease (C...

A context-aware approach for progression tracking of medical concepts in electronic medical records.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Electronic medical records (EMRs) for diabetic patients contain information about heart disease risk factors such as high blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and smoking status. Discovering the described risk factors and tracking their progression ov...

Hidden Markov model using Dirichlet process for de-identification.

Journal of biomedical informatics
For the 2014 i2b2/UTHealth de-identification challenge, we introduced a new non-parametric Bayesian hidden Markov model using a Dirichlet process (HMM-DP). The model intends to reduce task-specific feature engineering and to generalize well to new da...

Comparison of UMLS terminologies to identify risk of heart disease using clinical notes.

Journal of biomedical informatics
The second track of the 2014 i2b2 challenge asked participants to automatically identify risk factors for heart disease among diabetic patients using natural language processing techniques for clinical notes. This paper describes a rule-based system ...

A hybrid model for automatic identification of risk factors for heart disease.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in both the UK and worldwide. The detection of related risk factors and tracking their progress over time is of great importance for early prevention and treatment of CAD. This paper describ...

An automatic system to identify heart disease risk factors in clinical texts over time.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Despite recent progress in prediction and prevention, heart disease remains a leading cause of death. One preliminary step in heart disease prediction and prevention is risk factor identification. Many studies have been proposed to identify risk fact...

Coronary artery disease risk assessment from unstructured electronic health records using text mining.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Coronary artery disease (CAD) often leads to myocardial infarction, which may be fatal. Risk factors can be used to predict CAD, which may subsequently lead to prevention or early intervention. Patient data such as co-morbidities, medication history,...

Annotating longitudinal clinical narratives for de-identification: The 2014 i2b2/UTHealth corpus.

Journal of biomedical informatics
The 2014 i2b2/UTHealth natural language processing shared task featured a track focused on the de-identification of longitudinal medical records. For this track, we de-identified a set of 1304 longitudinal medical records describing 296 patients. Thi...

Adapting existing natural language processing resources for cardiovascular risk factors identification in clinical notes.

Journal of biomedical informatics
The 2014 i2b2 natural language processing shared task focused on identifying cardiovascular risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol levels, obesity and smoking status among other factors found in health records of diabetic patients...
