Ensemble-based Methods to Improve De-identification of Electronic Health Record Narratives.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Text de-identification is an application of clinical natural language processing that offers significant efficiency and scalability advantages. Hence, various learning algorithms have been applied to this task to yield better performance. Instead of ...

Is Multiclass Automatic Text De-Identification Worth the Effort?

Methods of information in medicine
OBJECTIVES: Automatic de-identification to remove protected health information (PHI) from clinical text can use a "binary" model that replaces redacted text with a generic tag (e.g., ""), or can use a "multiclass" model that retains more class i...

Artificial Intelligence in Public Health and Epidemiology.

Yearbook of medical informatics
OBJECTIVES:  To introduce and summarize current research in the field of Public Health and Epidemiology Informatics.

Leveraging existing corpora for de-identification of psychiatric notes using domain adaptation.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
De-identification of clinical notes is a special case of named entity recognition. Supervised machine-learning (ML) algorithms have achieved promising results for this task. However, ML-based de-identification systems often require annotating a large...

Leveraging text skeleton for de-identification of electronic medical records.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: De-identification is the first step to use these records for data processing or further medical investigations in electronic medical records. Consequently, a reliable automated de-identification system would be of high value.

A hybrid approach to automatic de-identification of psychiatric notes.

Journal of biomedical informatics
De-identification, or identifying and removing protected health information (PHI) from clinical data, is a critical step in making clinical data available for clinical applications and research. This paper presents a natural language processing syste...

Evaluating LLMs' Potential to Identify Rare Patient Identifiers in Patient Health Records.

Studies in health technology and informatics
This study explores the utility of Large Language Models (LLMs) to support finding rare patient record details that could make a patient identifiable. Whilst most research has focused on what we call direct patient identifiers, indirect patient ident...

Accelerating Clinical Text Annotation in Underrepresented Languages: A Case Study on Text De-Identification.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Clinical notes contain valuable information for research and monitoring quality of care. Named Entity Recognition (NER) is the process for identifying relevant pieces of information such as diagnoses, treatments, side effects, etc., and bring them to...

Quality Assessment of Brain MRI Defacing Using Machine Learning.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Defacing of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans is a crucial process in medical imaging research aimed at preserving patient privacy while maintaining data integrity. However, existing defacing algorithms are prone to errors, potentially com...

A De-Identification Model for Korean Clinical Notes: Using Deep Learning Models.

Studies in health technology and informatics
To extract information from free-text in clinical records due to the patient's protected health information PHI in the records pre-processing of de-identification is required. Therefore we aimed to identify PHI list and fine-tune the deep learning BE...
