Abstract: Embodiments may provide techniques for clustering using predefined anchors that take into account the knowledge about the anchors. For example, a method of clustering processing may be implemented in a computer comprising a processor, memory accessible by the processor, and computer program instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor, the method comprising: receiving a plurality of points of data to be clustered and a plurality of predefined anchor data points and clustering the plurality of points of data and at least a subset of the predefined anchor data points. Further, the method may include creating a similarity function where anchor points pull stronger than regular points, such that they function as attractors.

Abstract: A system for identifying in a corpus of documents at least one argument relevant to an identified topic, comprising at least one hardware processor adapted to: producing a plurality of topic-related sentences relevant to the identified topic, each extracted from a document of the corpus of documents; producing a plurality of synthetic documents, each created by appending to a sentence of the plurality of topic-related sentences an identified amount of other sentences extracted from the respective document the topic-related sentence was extracted therefrom; identifying at least one argument relevant to the identified topic by inputting each of the plurality of synthetic documents to at least one machine learning model trained to identify an argument in response to a document; and outputting the at least one argument.

Abstract: A method of estimating a thematic similarity of sentences, comprising receiving a corpus of a plurality of documents describing a plurality of topics where each document comprises a plurality of sentences arranged in a plurality of sections, constructing sentence triplets for at least some of the sentences, each sentence triplet comprising a respective sentence, a respective positive sentence selected randomly from the section comprising the respective sentence and a respective negative sentence selected randomly from another section, training a first neural network with the sentence triplets to identify sentence-sentence vectors mapping each sentence with a shorter distance to its respective positive sentence compared to the distance to its respective negative sentence and outputting the first neural network for estimating thematic similarity between a pair of sentences by computing a distance between the sentence-sentence vectors produced for each sentence of the pair by the first neural network.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and apparatus for assessing treatment adherence by patients, the method comprising: receiving a model providing statistical significance of patients' response to treatment, the model based on treatment assigned to the patients, wherein the patients are diagnosed with a disease; computing by the computerized device a p-value for a result received for a patient diagnosed with the disease and being treated by the treatment, by applying the model to at least one patient; and issuing an alert responsive to the p-value being indicative of the result being unexpected beyond a threshold.
