Abstract: Electronic records are accessed from computer storage for a given subject, wherein the electronic records include natural language notes about the subject. Tokens are identified in the natural language notes. For each token, a corresponding intensity score is generated representing an intensity of match between the token and a particular dimension, wherein the intensity scores are each values on a first scale, wherein each dimension is one of a plurality of dimensions of a category out of a plurality of categories; generating rescaled-intensity scores from the intensity scores by rescaling the intensity scores from the first scale to a second scale different from the first scale. For each dimension of each category, a dimension-score is compiled based on the intensity scores; and categorizing the subject into at least one category based on the dimension scores. The subject is categorized into at least one category based on the dimension scores.

Abstract: The following provides an exemplary method. An image is generated. Scan data generated by the sensing of a subject brain is received and a sequence of volumetric-images are accessed. For at least some of the voxels in at least some of the volumetric images, a change value is determined for the voxel by comparing the current-intensity value of the voxel to the adjacent-intensity value of the comparison voxel. For at least some of the plurality volumetric images, a first-aggregate is determined using at least a mean value of change values of the volumetric image and a second-aggregate is determined using at least a median value of change values of the volumetric image. At least one, but not all, of the volumetric images is determined as invalid as a result of the aggregates.
