BACKGROUND: Identifying non-accidental trauma (NAT) in pediatric trauma patients is challenging. We developed a machine learning model that uses demographic characteristics and ICD10 codes to detect the first diagnosis of NAT.
As opioid-related overdose emergency department visits continue to rise in the United States, there is a need to understand the location and magnitude of the crisis, especially in at-risk rural areas. We analyzed sets of ZIP code level electronic hea...
The rapid and efficient quantification of Escherichia coli concentrations is crucial for monitoring water quality. Remote sensing techniques and machine learning algorithms have been used to detect E. coli in water and estimate its concentrations. Th...
Coronary artery calcium (CAC) is considered a useful test for enhancing risk assessment in the primary prevention setting. Clinical trials are under consideration. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute convened a multidisciplinary working gro...

OBJECTIVE: Hospitals are challenged to provide timely patient care while maintaining high resource utilization. This has prompted hospital initiatives to increase patient flow and minimize nonvalue added care time. Real-time demand capacity managemen...
This paper describes a supervised machine learning approach for identifying heart disease risk factors in clinical text, and assessing the impact of annotation granularity and quality on the system's ability to recognize these risk factors. We utiliz...
BACKGROUND: Health care systems in the United States are increasingly interested in measuring and addressing social determinants of health (SDoH). Advances in electronic health record systems and Natural Language Processing (NLP) create a unique oppo...
