Abstract: A stateless, on-demand semantic indexing and search service for a health information exchange is provided that anticipatorily fetches data from one or more external sources, extracts semantic concepts from textual documents, and serves an in-memory semantic search index to users to ease finding of relevant patient data across a set of distributed health record data sources. Clinicians may search for not only text, but for semantic concepts, and the search index is able to return relevant results regardless of whether the source information is located inside or outside the local electronic health record. Predictive algorithms may be incorporated to pre-fetch, semantically process and index data for patients likely to be searched in an upcoming time window. Activity indicators for clinicians and patients may be utilized to pre-fetch, semantically process, and index data.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and user interfaces infer data organization for display. An inference system learns patterns of how various healthcare items are typically grouped on a display so data can be aggregated and displayed in appropriate groupings to a clinician user. From a user perspective, it appears as though the display has been manually edited or a mapping has been created so that items are displayed in appropriate groups, even though neither editing nor mapping has been performed.

Abstract: In some examples, a word embedding is received. A word embedding includes a plurality of vectors in vector space. Each vector of the plurality of vectors represents a natural language word or other character sequence. Each vector is oriented in vector space based on a semantic similarity between each of the natural language word or other character sequence. A first distance is determined between a first vector and a second vector. A second distance is determined between a third vector and the second vector. Based at least in part on the first distance between the first vector and the second vector and the second distance between the third vector and the second vector, the third vector is moved closer or further away from the second vector. The moving is indicative of introducing a bias or removing a bias between the third vector and the second vector. This introducing or removing of bias supports more accurate and inclusive results from an application such as search of healthcare data, among other things.

Abstract: Methods, computer systems, and computer storage media are provided for providing real-time analysis and annotation of clinical documents in a distributed system. A clinical transformation session is opened at a clinical transformation server maintaining sessions for one or more editors and agents operating on a clinical document. Sequences of operations on the clinical document are stored at a memory accessible by the server. At least a portion of the clinical document is analyzed in real-time to provide annotations and other document modifications to each of the one or more editors having a session at the server. Parallel annotations or modifications are resolved and a synchronized view of the clinical document is maintained based on operational transformation.

Abstract: Computerized methods and systems for using user-attribute ontologies to calculate anonymity levels are provided. A semi-automated mechanism permits selective and optionally progressive exposure of demographic and clinical information to other members of a medical social network group that a member has joined. When a user decides to join a medical social network group (which may be based upon system suggestion or initiated of the user's own accord), he or she selects or creates a profile that has a statistically validated degree of anonymity, ranging from fully anonymous to fully transparent. Based upon a user's elected level of exposure, only certain data is exposed to the rest of the group's membership. Thus, the user is permitted to personally balance the tension between exposing a level of information that may render him or her personally identifiable and exposing enough information to obtain meaningful advice and/or camaraderie.

Abstract: A method, system, and medium are provided for searching an electronic medical record. Search results are returned in response to a search query. The search query may be one or more designated medical concepts. The search results may be displayed according to a ranking that determines which search results are likely to be the most responsive to a query submitted by a particular clinician based on matching the most important clinical concepts in each document to the most important clinical concepts in the search query.
