About

In order to perform research smoothly, the process of information extraction is required for translating data in clinical text into available format for analysis and statistic. In medical research, the problem of missing data occurs frequently. It is important to develop the method with better imputation performance in the stability and accuracy. The purposes of this project are to provide the data integration and extraction methods for handling the structured and unstructured data sources in more efficient ways, to provide the validation scheme for facilitating the data reviewing of extracted results produced by information extraction modules, to increase the quality of clinical data by comparing the data from different data sources and correcting data errors and inconsistent, to handle the clinical data with the properties of time series and incompleteness, to increase accuracy of data analysis and increase quality of health care by improving the completeness and correctness of clinical data, to provide flexibility of methods in the platform. In the project, the disease topic is focused on the liver cancer patients' clinical data and we hope the methods in the projects can be extended to handle other diseases by replacing these knowledge models in the future.

Full description

Because of the increasing adoption of Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems, the data access of EMR is more and more convenient. However, there still have difficulties in analyzing all the clinical data directly due to a large number of records using the narrative format. In order to perform research smoothly, the process of information extraction is required for translating data in clinical text into available format for analysis and statistic. In medical research, the problem of missing data occurs frequently. It is important to develop the method with better imputation performance in the stability and accuracy. The purposes of this project are to provide the data integration and extraction methods for handling the structured and unstructured data sources in more efficient ways, to provide the validation scheme for facilitating the data reviewing of extracted results produced by information extraction modules, to increase the quality of clinical data by comparing the data from different data sources and correcting data errors and inconsistent, to handle the clinical data with the properties of time series and incompleteness, to increase accuracy of data analysis and increase quality of health care by improving the completeness and correctness of clinical data, to provide flexibility of methods in the platform.
