Publication number: 20210020313Abstract: This disclosure relates to generating interactive graphical visualisations of clinical and data. A processor calculates phenotype-to-phenotype similarity value indicative of a similarity between observed phenotypes and each phenotype in a set of stored phenotypes based on an ontology of phenotypes. The processor then determines an assignment of stored phenotypes to observed phenotypes based on the similarity values and further aggregates the similarity values into a set-to-set similarity value indicative of a similarity between the observed phenotypes and the set of stored phenotypes. The processor then repeats these steps to calculate a set-to-set similarity measure for each of the multiple sets. Finally, the processor selects one or more of the multiple sets based on the set-to-set similarity value and generates a graphical user interface comprising a graphical indication of the selected one or more of the multiple sets in relation to the multiple observed phenotypes.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 12, 2019Publication date: January 21, 2021Applicant: GARVAN INSTITUTE OF MEDICAL RESEARCHInventor: Tudor GROZA
