Dynamic categorization of clinical research eligibility criteria by hierarchical clustering
OBJECTIVE To semi-automatically induce semantic categories of eligibility criteria from text and to automatically classify eligibility criteria based on their semantic similarity. DESIGN The UMLS semantic types and a set of previously developed semantic preference rules were utilized to create an unambiguous semantic feature representation to induce eligibility criteria categories through hie...
متن کاملPatterns of Clinical Trial Eligibility Criteria
Medical research would benefit from automatic methods that support eligibility evaluation for patient enrollment in clinical trials and design of eligibility criteria. In this study we addressed the problem of formalizing eligibility criteria. By analyzing a large set of breast cancer clinical trials we derived a set of patterns, that capture typical structure of conditions, pertaining to synta...
متن کاملResearch of Hierarchical Clustering Based on Dynamic Granular Computing
Hierarchical clustering algorithm of cluster analysis method can detect data in different granularity levels, and the clustering process is suitable for most of practical problems, but complexity of the merger and split conditions limits its application. This paper proposed a new hierarchical clustering algorithm basis on dynamic fuzzy granular computing combining with the particle swarm optimi...
متن کاملDynamic Hierarchical Clustering
We describe a new method for dynamically clustering hierarchical data which maintains good clustering in the presence of insertions and deletions. This method, which we call Enc, encodes the insertion order of children with respect to their parents and concatenates the insertion numbers to form a compact key for the data. We compare Enc with some more traditional approaches and show in what cir...
متن کاملIsotropic Dynamic Hierarchical Clustering
We face a business need of discovering a pattern in locations of a great number of points in a high-dimensional space. We assume that there should be a certain structure, so that in some locations the points are close while in other locations the points are more dispersed. Our goal is to group the close points together. The process of grouping close objects is known under the name of clustering...
