[0026] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present invention, the following further describes in detail a system for standardizing the integration of clinical data and constructing a comprehensive information model of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] As Figure 1 shown, a system for standardizing the integration of clinical data and constructing a comprehensive information model of the present invention includes an infectious pulmonary disease clinical cohort data acquisition system, which is used to establish a unified data acquisition system and standard based on the prospective infectious pulmonary disease specialized research cohort of cooperative units, collect and integrate multi-dimensional data such as clinical indicators, laboratory test data, imaging data, and treatment responses, collect, process and store the data, including converting laboratory test data into international standard units, storing imaging data in DICOM format, cleaning and standardizing the data, storing it in a hybrid mode architecture database, and setting user permission management and data encryption;

[0028] In the infectious pulmonary disease clinical cohort data acquisition system, the data acquisition scope covers patient baseline information, intervention measures and clinical outcomes, and additional metadata such as data source, acquisition time, and disease type.

[0029] The specific embodiments of the infectious pulmonary disease clinical cohort data acquisition system are as follows:

[0030] Clinical indicators: Obtain the clinical information of patients from the electronic medical record system (EMR) of the collaborating unit, including demographic information (such as age A, gender G), symptom information (such as cough duration t, cough volume V), and symptoms can be collected through questionnaires or doctor records. For symptom scoring, relevant scales can be used. For example, for the cough severity score S, different score ranges can be set according to different symptom degrees;

[0031] Laboratory test data: Collect the results of various laboratory tests, such as white blood cell count WBG. If the unit is 10 9 / L, but some units are 10 3 / uL. When converting to the international standard unit, use the formula: When the original unit is 10 3 / uL, WBG std =WBG original / 1000; For biochemical indicators, such as serum creatinine C T , unify the results of different detection methods into the internationally recommended unit. According to the conversion formula provided by the reagent manufacturer, such as C Tstd =a*Cr original +b, where a and b are the conversion coefficients provided by the manufacturer.

[0032] Imaging data: Use the medical imaging device interface to store the acquired imaging data in DICOM format. For the image resolution, ensure that it meets the research set standards during acquisition, such as Res = X*Y*Z, where X and Y are the planar resolutions and Z is the slice thickness; Label the images. For example, the lesion volume Vlesion can be calculated through an image segmentation algorithm, and the formula can be used

[0033] Treatment response data: Record the treatment drug dose D1 and the medication time t1, as well as the changes in clinical indicators after treatment. For example, the difference in body temperature △T = T2 - T3 between the body temperature T2 after treatment and the body temperature T3 before treatment.

[0034] The construction module of the multi-modal deep algorithm model includes:

[0035] Multi-modal fusion model, which normalizes, enhances data, extracts features and reduces dimensions for imaging data; preprocesses, performs deep semantic encoding and unifies dimensions for text data; standardizes and extracts features for structured data; uses the GBM model to perform regression and classification predictions on multi-time point data; uses AFD to extract features from time series data and input them into the LSTM model; uses the large language model to extract features and associate text information and laboratory results; fuses multi-modal features through the self-attention mechanism;

[0036] The multi-task output layer constructs a multi-task learning framework to parallelly execute the risk prediction of infectious pulmonary diseases and the decision support task based on Task 1. The risk prediction task determines the high-risk state of severe pneumonia in patients and evaluates the necessity of mechanical ventilation. The decision support task combines a large language model and an expert knowledge graph to assist doctors in making decisions on ICU requirements. In the multi-task output layer, the risk prediction task uses the fused multi-modal features combined with imaging lesions, clinical symptoms, and laboratory data, and outputs the high-risk state of severe pneumonia in patients and the evaluation results of the necessity of mechanical ventilation through a classifier. The decision support task semantically analyzes the risk prediction results through a large language model and provides decision-making suggestions in combination with the knowledge graph.

[0037] In the multi-modal fusion model, for the extraction of imaging data features, a pre-trained EfficientNet model is combined with principal component analysis. For the extraction of text data features, a BioBERT model is combined with average pooling operation. For the extraction of structured data features, a random forest model and a support vector machine method are used.

[0038] Specific implementation manners of the technical solutions of the multi-modal fusion model and the multi-task output layer:

[0039] Processing of imaging data:

[0040] Normalization: For the imaging data X irng , the min-max normalization formula can be used to normalize the data to the range (a, b);

[0041]

[0042] where min(X img ) and max(X img ) are the minimum and maximum values of the imaging data, and a and b are the lower and upper limits of the normalization range.

[0043] Data augmentation: Methods such as geometric transformation (such as rotation, translation, scaling) and intensity transformation (such as contrast adjustment, noise addition) can be used to expand the data. For example, for the image rotation operation, assuming the rotation angle is Q, the rotated image X img -rot can be transformed from the original image through the corresponding rotation matrix R(Q): X img -rot = R(Q)X img .

[0044] Feature extraction and dimensionality reduction: Use a pre-trained EfficientNet model to extract features. Assuming the features output by EfficientNet are F EfficientNet , it can be expressed as:

[0045] F EfficientNet = EfficientNet(Ximg -norn-aug), where X img -norn-aug is the imaging data after normalization and data augmentation;

[0046] Then, principal component analysis (PCA) is used for dimensionality reduction. Let the original feature dimension be n, the dimension to be reduced to be k, and the PCA transformation matrix be W PCA , and the feature F after dimensionality reduction img -pca can be expressed as:

[0047] F img -pca = F EfficientNet W PCA ;

[0048] Text data processing: Operations such as cleaning (removing noise and stop words), word segmentation, stemming, or lemmatization are performed on the text data.

[0049] Deep semantic encoding: The BioBERT model is used for semantic encoding, and the processed text data is input into the BioBERT model to obtain the encoded feature F BioBERT :

[0050] F BioBERT = BioBERT(X text-preprocessed ), where X text-preprocessed is the preprocessed text data.

[0051] Multi-modal feature fusion is to fuse features of different modalities using the self-attention mechanism.

[0052] Multi-task output layer: Risk prediction task: Using the fused multi-modal feature F fusion , combined with the imaging lesion feature F lesion , the clinical symptom feature F symptom and the laboratory data feature F lab , input into a classifier (such as a logistic regression or neural network classifier) to evaluate the high-risk state of severe pneumonia and the necessity of mechanical ventilation.

[0053] For the logistic regression classifier, assuming the input feature is Xrisk = (F fusion , F lesion , F symptom , F lab ), the probability prediction formula is:

[0054]

[0055] where y = 1 indicates being in a high-risk state or requiring mechanical ventilation, w is the weight vector, and b is the bias term.

[0056] Decision support task: Semantically parse the risk prediction results, input the risk prediction result Rrisk into a large language model (such as the GPT series), and obtain the semantic interpretation Srisk:

[0057] Srisk = GPT(Rrisk);

[0058] Combine expert knowledge graphs to provide decision-making suggestions, which can be expressed as:

[0059] Ddecision = Combine(Srisk, K).

[0060] Clinical performance verification module, including:

[0061] Clinical enrollment: Relying on partner hospitals, collect infectious pulmonary disease patients and non-infectious controls according to specific time ranges and inclusion and exclusion criteria, longitudinally collect "whole-course, multi-timepoint, multi-site" body fluid samples and conduct standardized management; in the clinical performance verification module, the inclusion criteria for infectious pulmonary disease patients in clinical enrollment include meeting the diagnostic criteria for community-acquired pneumonia, signing an informed consent form, and being less than 80 years old; the inclusion criteria for patients without lung infections include being less than 80 years old, having no serious underlying diseases, and not participating in relevant clinical trials.

[0062] Prospective cohort data integration and management: Rely on the hospital's advantages to establish a unified data processing process to ensure data quality, remove redundant information, protect privacy, and standardize data processing.

[0063] Clinical performance verification indicators: Use accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score indicators to evaluate the effectiveness and reliability of the model in the diagnosis of infectious pulmonary diseases.

[0064] It can be understood that the present invention is described through some embodiments. Those skilled in the art know that without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, various changes or equivalent substitutions can be made to these features and embodiments. Additionally, under the teaching of the present invention, these features and embodiments can be modified to adapt to specific situations and materials without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and all embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application belong to the scope protected by the present invention.
