  • Machine learning with incomplete data sets
    Patent number: 9349105
    Abstract: Machine learning solutions compensate for data missing from input (training) data and thereby arrive at a predictive model that is based upon, and consistent with, the training data. The predictive model can be generated within a learning algorithm framework by transforming the training data to generate modality or similarity kernels. Similarity values can be generated for these missing similarity values.

  • MEDICAL CODING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM USING AN INTELLIGENT CODING, REPORTING, AND ANALYTICS-FOCUSED TOOL
    Publication number: 20160132643
    Abstract: A device may receive information that identifies a first medical term and may determine whether the first medical term corresponds to a first medical code, which may be a medical code previously input by a first user in association with a second medical term. Or, the first medical code may be included in a dictionary. The device may determine a valid code corresponding to the first medical term based on determining whether the first medical term corresponds to the first medical code. The valid code may be determined based on the first medical code when the first medical term corresponds to the first medical code. The valid code may be determined based on a second medical code, input by a second user, when the first medical term does not correspond to the first medical code. The device may provide information that identifies the valid code.

    Abstract: Embodiments relate to segmenting blood vessels in angiogram images. An aspect includes a method that includes receiving and preprocessing at least one angiogram frame and preprocessing. In one embodiment, at least one angiogram frame is received and preprocessed. Bottom-up filtering of the preprocessed angiogram frame and top-down segmentation of the preprocessed angiogram frame are performed based on the results of the bottom-up filtering. The bottom-up filtering and the top-down segmentation are iteratively repeated until the difference between results of the top-down segmentation from consecutive iterations is equal to or below a threshold value. Based on determining that a difference between results of the top-down segmentation from consecutive iterations is below or equal to the threshold value, the results of the top-down segmentation are outputted.
