Paper accepted to the 13th Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (AIME)

We’ve had a paper accepted to the 13th Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (AIME’11), which this year will be held in Bled, Slovenia (July 2-6). The paper is written by myself, Martin Hassel and Maria Kvist and is titled Diagnosis Code Assignment Support Using Random Indexing of Patient Records – A Qualitative Feasibility Study. We have explored the possibility of using statistical data on co-occurrences of words and assigned diagnosis codes (ICD-10) in coded patient records and applying these (word space) models as a means to provide computer-aided diagnostic coding support.
