Learning-based Detection of Scientific Terms in Patient Information
In this paper, we investigate the use of a machine-learning based approach to the specific problem of scientific term detection in patient information. Lacking lexical databases which differentiate between the scientific and popular nature of medical terms, we used local context, morphosyntactic, morphological and statistical information to design a learner which accurately detects scientific m...
متن کاملThe Automatic Detection of Scientific Terms in Patient Information
Despite the legislative efforts to improve the readability of patient information, different surveys have shown that respondents still feel distressed by reading the information, or even consider it as fully incomprehensible. This paper deals with one of the sources of distress: the use of scientific terminology in patient information. In order to assess the scale of the problem, we collected a...
متن کاملOn Classification of Bivariate Distributions Based on Mutual Information
Among all measures of independence between random variables, mutual information is the only one that is based on information theory. Mutual information takes into account of all kinds of dependencies between variables, i.e., both the linear and non-linear dependencies. In this paper we have classified some well-known bivariate distributions into two classes of distributions based on their mutua...
متن کاملRice Classification and Quality Detection Based on Sparse Coding Technique
Classification of various rice types and determination of its quality is a major issue in the scientific and commercial fields associated with modern agriculture. In recent years, various image processing techniques are used to identify different types of agricultural products. There are also various color and texture-based features in order to achieve the desired results in this area. In this ...
متن کاملPersian sign language detection based on normalized depth image information
There are many reports of using the Kinect to detect hand and finger gestures after release of device by Microsoft. The depth information is mostly used to separate the hand image in the two-dimension of RGB domain. This paper proposes a method in which the depth information plays a more dominant role. Using a threshold in depth space first the hand template is extracted. Then in 3D domain the ...
