  • Data De-Identification By Obfuscation
    Publication number: 20080240425
    Abstract: Medical or other data is de-identified by obfuscation. Located instances are replaced. By replacing with values in a same format and level of generality, multiple possible identifications—the replacement values and the instances not located—are provided in the data, obfuscating the original identification. By replacing as a function of a probability, the resulting data set has different instances distributed in a way making identification of the actual or original instances not located by searching more difficult.

  • Method for Guiding Differential Diagnosis Through Information Maximization
    Publication number: 20080214928
    Abstract: A system and method for diagnosis and treatment decisions based on information maximization is disclosed. Utilizing patient information as well as clinical records from other patients can reduce the uncertainty in both diagnosis and treatment options. The information maximization may consider additional data such as risk, cost, and comfort in making a proper medical decision.

  • Automated Interpretation and Replacement of Date References in Unstructured Text
    Publication number: 20080154897
    Abstract: A method for interpreting date information from unstructured text includes performing phrase tokenization on the unstructured text to identify one or more temporal phrases. Word categorization is performed on the one or more temporal phrases to categorize one or more words of each temporal phrase. Grammar analysis is performed to match each temporal phrase to an understood syntax using the categorizations of the words of each temporal phrase. Each temporal phrase is interpreted based on the matched syntax.

  • Learning Classifiers for Multiple-Label Data Analysis
    Publication number: 20080109388
    Abstract: A method for multiple-label data analysis includes: obtaining labeled data points from more than one labeler; building a classifier that maximizes a measure relating the data points, labels on the data points and a predicted output label; and assigning an output label to an input data point by using the classifier.
