Evaluation of preprocessing techniques for chief complaint classification
OBJECTIVE To determine whether preprocessing chief complaints before automatically classifying them into syndromic categories improves classification performance. METHODS We preprocessed chief complaints using two preprocessors (CCP and EMT-P) and evaluated whether classification performance increased for a probabilistic classifier (CoCo) or for a keyword-based classifier (modification of the...
متن کاملOntology-enhanced automatic chief complaint classification for syndromic surveillance
Emergency department free-text chief complaints (CCs) are a major data source for syndromic surveillance. CCs need to be classified into syndromic categories for subsequent automatic analysis. However, the lack of a standard vocabulary and high-quality encodings of CCs hinder effective classification. This paper presents a new ontology-enhanced automatic CC classification approach. Exploiting s...
