  • Publication number: 20240347150
    Abstract: Described herein are techniques of using machine learning to automatically extract clinical variable values for subjects from clinical record data. The techniques designate certain clinical variables as hybrid variables that can be assigned values by machine learning model prediction. The techniques process, using a machine learning model trained to predict a value of a hybrid variable, clinical record data associated with a subject to obtain a predicted hybrid variable value and an associated confidence score. The techniques set the value of the hybrid variable for the subject to the predicted hybrid variable value when the model prediction is of sufficiently high confidence.

  • Patent number: 11908586
    Abstract: A model-assisted system for extracting patient information. A processor may be programmed to access a database storing one or more medical records associated with a patient and determine, using a first machine learning model and based on unstructured information included in the one or more medical records, whether the patient is associated with a condition. The processor may further be programmed to identify a date associated with the patient and determine, using a second machine learning model and based on the unstructured information, whether the patient is associated with the condition relative to the date. The processor may generate an output indicating whether the patient is associated with the condition and whether the patient is associated with the condition relative to the date.

  • Publication number: 20230368877
    Abstract: A model-assisted system for determining probabilities associated with a patient attribute. The processor may be programmed to access a database storing an unstructured medical record associated with a patient and analyze the medical record to identify snippets of information associated with the patient attribute. The processor may generate, based on each snippet, a snippet vector comprising a plurality of snippet vector elements comprising weight values associated with at least one word included in the snippet. The processor may analyze the snippet vectors to generate a summary vector comprising a plurality of summary vector elements, wherein each of the plurality of summary vector elements is associated with a corresponding snippet vector element and is determined based on an analysis of the corresponding snippet vector element. The processor may further generate, based on the summary vector, at least one output indicative of a probability associated with the patient attribute.

  • Publication number: 20230197220
    Abstract: A model-assisted system for processing data to extract a patient event date may include a processor. The processor may be programmed to access a database storing a medical record associated with a patient, the medical record comprising unstructured data; analyze the unstructured data to identify a plurality of dates represented in at least one document included in the medical record; identify a plurality of snippets of information included in the at least one document, each snippet of the plurality of snippets being associated with a date of the plurality of dates; inputting the plurality of snippets into a machine learning model, the machine learning model having been trained to determine associations between dates and patient events based on a training set of snippet data; and determine whether each date of the plurality of dates is associated with a patient event based on an output of the machine learning model.
