This study introduces a Deep Learning based Akin Friendship Method (DLAFM) for extracting health indicators from patient records. The DLAFM model improves health indicator extraction accuracy by 8-10% compared to existing methods.
Area of Science:
- Medical Informatics
- Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
- Data Mining
Background:
- Patient health record analysis is crucial for understanding medical needs and disease challenges.
- Existing medical data analysis schemes offer baseline solutions but lack optimal hypothesis-based approaches for clinical decision-making.
- The field of medical electronics requires advanced health indicator extraction models.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose an optimal hypothesis model for health indicator extraction from electronic medical records (EMR) and International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) databases.
- To introduce the Akin Method and Friendship method for building hypothesis structures and trait-based feature extraction.
- To enhance the accuracy of medical hypothesis models using deep learning.
Main Methods:
- Developed the Composite Akin Friendship Model (CAFM) using the Akin Method and Friendship method for evidence-based hypothesis generation and information association.
- Implemented a Deep Learning based Akin Friendship Method (DLAFM) integrating Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and a Legacy Prediction Model for Health Indicator (LPHI).
- Utilized evidence checking procedures to collect medical evidence from patient examination reports for health indicator and disease symptom extraction (HIDSE).
Main Results:
- The proposed DLAFM model demonstrated an 8-10% improvement in system performance for health indicator extraction compared to existing techniques.
- The CAFM model provided a framework for developing medical hypothesis systems through various test cases.
- The DLAFM approach enhanced the accuracy of the medical hypothesis model, addressing limitations of previous methods.
Conclusions:
- The DLAFM model offers a significant advancement in health indicator extraction from EMR and ICD-10 data.
- This approach aids health sectors in clinical decision-making by providing more accurate health indications.
- The integration of deep learning with Akin-Friendship principles presents a promising direction for medical data analysis and hypothesis generation.
