Finding useful data across multiple biomedical data repositories using DataMed.

Nature genetics
The value of broadening searches for data across multiple repositories has been identified by the biomedical research community. As part of the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) Big Data to Knowledge initiative, we work with an international com...

Semantic closure demonstrated by the evolution of a universal constructor architecture in an artificial chemistry.

Journal of the Royal Society, Interface
We present a novel stringmol-based artificial chemistry system modelled on the universal constructor architecture (UCA) first explored by von Neumann. In a UCA, machines interact with an abstract description of themselves to replicate by copying the ...

Machine-Learning Algorithms Predict Graft Failure After Liver Transplantation.

Transplantation
BACKGROUND: The ability to predict graft failure or primary nonfunction at liver transplant decision time assists utilization of scarce resource of donor livers, while ensuring that patients who are urgently requiring a liver transplant are prioritiz...

Machine learning of swimming data via wisdom of crowd and regression analysis.

Mathematical biosciences and engineering : MBE
Every performance, in an officially sanctioned meet, by a registered USA swimmer is recorded into an online database with times dating back to 1980. For the first time, statistical analysis and machine learning methods are systematically applied to 4...

Screening Electronic Health Record-Related Patient Safety Reports Using Machine Learning.

Journal of patient safety
INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to develop a semiautomated approach to screening cases that describe hazards associated with the electronic health record (EHR) from a mandatory, population-based patient safety reporting system.

Using an Ontology-Based Approach to Handle Author Affiliations in a Large Biomedical Citation Database.

Studies in health technology and informatics
To handle differences in affiliation names submitted with biomedical journal articles, we build an affiliation knowledge base named Authority File for Affiliations (AFA) based on ontology principles. There are currently 113,700 affiliation concepts w...

An OMOP CDM-Based Relational Database of Clinical Research Eligibility Criteria.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Eligibility criteria are important for clinical research protocols or clinical practice guidelines for determining who qualify for studies and to whom clinical evidence is applicable, but the free-text format is not amenable for computational process...

Prescription Opioid Dependence in Western New York: Using Data Analytics to Find an Answer to the Opioid Epidemic.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Opioid dependence and overdose is on the rise. One indicator is the increasing trends of prescription buprenorphine use among patient on chronic pain medication. In addition to the New York State Department of Health's prescription drug monitoring pr...

An Infrared Thermal Images Database and a New Technique for Thyroid Nodules Analysis.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Thyroid nodules diseases are a common health problem and thyroidal cancer is becoming increasingly prevalent. They appear in the neck and bottom neck region, superficially over the trachea. Cancer tissues are characterized by higher temperatures than...
