Generalizing post-stroke prognoses from research data to clinical data

Big Data Quality: From Content to Context

Over the last 20 years, and particularly with the advent of Big Data and analytics, the research area around Data and Information Quality (DIQ) is still a fast growing research area. There are many views and streams in DIQ research, generally aiming at improving the effectiveness of decision making in organizations. Although there are a lot of researches aimed at clarifying the role of BIG data...

Detailed Clinical Modelling Approach to Data Extraction from Heterogeneous Data Sources for Clinical Research

The reuse of routinely collected clinical data for clinical research is being explored as part of the drive to reduce duplicate data entry and to start making full use of the big data potential in the healthcare domain. Clinical researchers often need to extract data from patient registries and other patient record datasets for data analysis as part of clinical studies. In the TRANSFoRm project...

Alternative Arguments for Generalizing From Data as Applied to Qualitative Research

Fiber Surfaces: Generalizing Isosurfaces to Bivariate Data

Scientific visualization has many effective methods for examining and exploring scalar and vector fields, but rather fewer for bivariate fields. We report the first general purpose approach for the interactive extraction of geometric separating surfaces in bivariate fields. This method is based on fiber surfaces: surfaces constructed from sets of fibers, the multivariate analogues of isolines. ...

Considerations for Using Research Data to Verify Clinical Data Accuracy

Collected to support clinical decisions and processes, clinical data may be subject to validity issues when used for research. The objective of this study is to examine methods and issues in summarizing and evaluating the accuracy of clinical data as compared to primary research data. We hypothesized that research survey data on a patient cohort could serve as a reference standard for uncoverin...
