Predicting Breast Cancer by Applying Deep Learning to Linked Health Records and Mammograms.

Radiology
Background Computational models on the basis of deep neural networks are increasingly used to analyze health care data. However, the efficacy of traditional computational models in radiology is a matter of debate. Purpose To evaluate the accuracy and...

Multitask learning and benchmarking with clinical time series data.

Scientific data
Health care is one of the most exciting frontiers in data mining and machine learning. Successful adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) created an explosion in digital clinical data available for analysis, but progress in machine learning for ...

Enhancing ontology-driven diagnostic reasoning with a symptom-dependency-aware Naïve Bayes classifier.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Ontology has attracted substantial attention from both academia and industry. Handling uncertainty reasoning is important in researching ontology. For example, when a patient is suffering from cirrhosis, the appearance of abdominal vein v...

Natural Language Processing to Quantify Microbial Keratitis Measurements.

Ophthalmology
A natural language processing (NLP) algorithm to extract microbial keratitis morphology measurements from the electronic health record (EHR) was 75-96% sensitive and 91%-96% specific. NLP accurately extracts data from the corneal exam free-text EHR f...

An intelligent warning model for early prediction of cardiac arrest in sepsis patients.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND: Sepsis-associated cardiac arrest is a common issue with the low survival rate. Early prediction of cardiac arrest can provide the time required for intervening and preventing its onset in order to reduce mortality. Several studies have be...

Mining patient-specific and contextual data with machine learning technologies to predict cancellation of children's surgery.

International journal of medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Last-minute surgery cancellation represents a major wastage of resources and can cause significant inconvenience to patients. Our objectives in this study were: 1) To develop predictive models of last-minute surgery cancellation, utilizin...

Measuring the effect of different types of unsupervised word representations on Medical Named Entity Recognition.

International journal of medical informatics
BACKGROUND: This work deals with Natural Language Processing applied to the clinical domain. Specifically, the work deals with a Medical Entity Recognition (MER) on Electronic Health Records (EHRs). Developing a MER system entailed heavy data preproc...

Statistical supervised meta-ensemble algorithm for medical record linkage.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Identifying unique patients across multiple care facilities or services is a major challenge in providing continuous care and undertaking health research. Identifying and linking patients without compromising privacy and security is an emerging issue...

Supervised methods to extract clinical events from cardiology reports in Italian.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Clinical narratives are a valuable source of information for both patient care and biomedical research. Given the unstructured nature of medical reports, specific automatic techniques are required to extract relevant entities from such texts. In the ...
