System and Method for Automatically Classifying Text using Discourse Analysis

InactiveUS20150081277A1Accurate analysisEasily and effectively organize information about particular discoursesNatural language data processingSpecial data processing applicationsText databaseSubject matter
The present invention is a textual discourse analysis with the purpose of analyzing and visualizing of complex text. The invention operates and functions based on conceptual relations, both logical and axiological, among grammatical components of a sentence and across sentences of a given text. Thus, three basic grammatical units, namely Agent / s, Topic / s and Object / s, have been utilized, in order to build a tripartite structure. Discursive analysis of text based on this invention provides a novel approach for automatically classifying positions of Agent / s within particular textual databases vis-a-vis to Topic / s and Object / s, and vice versa. Therefore, as illustrated above, a computer program method of the present invention starts by creating a conceptual map of a given text, classifying semantic macro-areas, positions of Agents, Topics and objects and then correlates such positions with other components in the database. In the next step of the invention, the computer assigns a reference system, provided for analyzing denotative content of discourse. The system is based upon a database of terms of words and phrases and their associated denotative as well as connotative meanings followed by generation of a database, axiologically categorizing subject-matters.

Disease specific ontology-guided rule engine and machine learning for enhanced critical care decision support

A disease-specific ontology crafted by a consensus of expert clinicians may be used to semantically characterize / provide semantic meaning to dynamically changing patient electronic medical record (EMR) data in critical care settings. Hierarchical, directed node-edge-node graphs (concept maps or Vmaps) developed with an end-user friendly graphical user interface and ontology editor, can be used to represent structured clinical reasoning and serve as the first step in disease-specific ontology building. Disease domain Vmaps reflecting expert clinical reasoning associated with management of acute illnesses encountered in critical care settings (e.g. ICUs) that extend core clinical ontologies, developed and reviewed by experts, are in turn extended with existing medical ontologies and automatically translated to a domain ontology processing engine. Semantically-enhanced EMR data derived from the ontology processing engine is incorporated into both real-time ‘track and trigger” rule engines and machine learning training algorithms using aggregated data. The resulting rule engines and machine-learnt models provide enhanced diagnostic and prognostic information respectively, to assist in clinical dual modes of reasoning (analytical rules and models based on experiential data) to assist in decisions associated with the specific disease in acute critical care settings.

ActiveUS20150278688A1Improve memory retrieval performancePrecise personalized recommendationDigital data information retrievalChaos modelsSemantic memoryWearable computer
A remembrance agent is proposed, to be hosted on a wearable computer. The remembrance agent employs a first database (WK) of knowledge about the world in the form of concept maps. Events (“episodes”) experienced by a user are each classified as relating to one or more of the concepts in WK. The episodes are used to produce a second database (episodic memory, EM), and the classification is also used to update a third database (semantic memory, SM) organised using the concepts. The semantic memory thus summarizes the user's interaction with the concepts during the episodes. A current situation of the user is classified according to the concepts, and the classification is used, with the EM and SM, to provide to the user information relevant to the current situation.

Computerized system and method for rapid data entry of past medical diagnoses

A system and method for rapid entry of past medical diagnoses allows for development of specific, clinically relevant diagnoses from a simple input medication through use of a developed database that maps an input medication to a specific medical diagnosis through an intermediate indications data set. Input medications are normalized to their generic or chemical name and the normalized medication data is associated to an intermediate diagnosis through a medications indications listing contained in a database. Each medication develops a short list of possible specific and / or macro-diagnoses (indications) consistent with the medications and a selected indication is concept-matched to a specific medical diagnosis in order to develop a proper diagnosis in clinically meaningful terms, from a concept-mapped portion of the database. The concept-mapped portion is developed by grouping medical terms into clinically meaningful groups and developing pointers within those groups between identified diseases and a developed indications taxonomy, itself developed by forming a composite of FDA-approved and non-FDA approved indications with respect to particular normalized medications.
