Machine learning with the hierarchy-of-hypotheses (HoH) approach discovers novel pattern in studies on biological invasions.

Research synthesis methods
Research synthesis on simple yet general hypotheses and ideas is challenging in scientific disciplines studying highly context-dependent systems such as medical, social, and biological sciences. This study shows that machine learning, equation-free s...

Automatic Classification of Online Doctor Reviews: Evaluation of Text Classifier Algorithms.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: An increasing number of doctor reviews are being generated by patients on the internet. These reviews address a diverse set of topics (features), including wait time, office staff, doctor's skills, and bedside manners. Most previous work ...

Prioritising references for systematic reviews with RobotAnalyst: A user study.

Research synthesis methods
Screening references is a time-consuming step necessary for systematic reviews and guideline development. Previous studies have shown that human effort can be reduced by using machine learning software to prioritise large reference collections such t...

Machine learning for identifying Randomized Controlled Trials: An evaluation and practitioner's guide.

Research synthesis methods
Machine learning (ML) algorithms have proven highly accurate for identifying Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) but are not used much in practice, in part because the best way to make use of the technology in a typical workflow is unclear. In this w...

Living systematic reviews: 2. Combining human and machine effort.

Journal of clinical epidemiology
New approaches to evidence synthesis, which use human effort and machine automation in mutually reinforcing ways, can enhance the feasibility and sustainability of living systematic reviews. Human effort is a scarce and valuable resource, required wh...

Improving Endpoint Detection to Support Automated Systematic Reviews.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Authors of biomedical articles use comparison sentences to communicate the findings of a study, and to compare the results of the current study with earlier studies. The Claim Framework defines a comparison claim as a sentence that includes at least ...

RevManHAL: towards automatic text generation in systematic reviews.

Systematic reviews
BACKGROUND: Systematic reviews are a key part of healthcare evaluation. They involve important painstaking but repetitive work. A major producer of systematic reviews, the Cochrane Collaboration, employs Review Manager (RevMan) programme-a software w...

Topic detection using paragraph vectors to support active learning in systematic reviews.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Systematic reviews require expert reviewers to manually screen thousands of citations in order to identify all relevant articles to the review. Active learning text classification is a supervised machine learning approach that has been shown to signi...

A corpus of potentially contradictory research claims from cardiovascular research abstracts.

Journal of biomedical semantics
BACKGROUND: Research literature in biomedicine and related fields contains a huge number of claims, such as the effectiveness of treatments. These claims are not always consistent and may even contradict each other. Being able to identify contradicto...
