Detection of Patients with Influenza Syndrome Using Machine-Learning Models Learned from Emergency Department Reports
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction Early detection of influenza outbreaks is critical to public health officials. Case detection is the foundation for outbreak detection. Previous study by Elkin el al. demonstrated that using individual emergency department (ED) reports can better detect influenza cases than using chief complaints [1]. Our recent study using ED reports processed by Bayesian networks (using expert constructed network structure) showed high detection accuracy on detection of influenza cases [2].

In this paper, face detection problem is considered using the concepts of compressive sensing technique. This technique includes dictionary learning procedure and sparse coding method to represent the structural content of input images. In the proposed method, dictionaries are learned in such a way that the trained models have the least degree of coherence to each other. The novelty of the prop...

متن کاملComparison of machine learning classifiers for influenza detection from emergency department free-text reports
Influenza is a yearly recurrent disease that has the potential to become a pandemic. An effective biosurveillance system is required for early detection of the disease. In our previous studies, we have shown that electronic Emergency Department (ED) free-text reports can be of value to improve influenza detection in real time. This paper studies seven machine learning (ML) classifiers for influ...
