9. «One or two patient died per week in a
certain smallish town because of the lack
of information flow between the
hospital’s emergency room and the
nearby mental health clinic»
[«Doing Data Science», O’Neil ]

10. 60% of US doctors still use
paper medical records

11. Let’s create our own EHR standard

12. Patient

14. There 5 important data
standards
ICD - diagnostic, billing, world-wide
CPT - procedures, billing, US-specific, classification
LOINC - lab tests and observations, world-wide
NDC - medication, US-specific, classification
SNOMED - medicine

15. … and a lot of custom dictionaries

16. Even within one data standard:
ICD-9
174 malignant neoplasm of female breast
174.1 malignant neoplasm of central portion of female breast
ICD-10
C50 malignant neoplasm of breast
C50.1 malignant neoplasm of central portion of breast
C50.111 malignant neoplasm of central portion of right female
breast
C50.112 malignant neoplasm of central portion of left female
breast

17. You have to be a doctor to handle them

18. Problem summary

medicine expertise
a lot of (expensive) hours
Knowledge

19. Standards are changing

20. Artificial Intelligence Way
Feed a lot of medical texts to
«medical doctor»
Use NLP power
Make it unsupervised

21. Key idea:
«Semantically similar words occurs in similar
contents» Harris, 1954
«You shall know a word by the company it
keeps», Firth, 1957

22. «It was the year when Udacity, Coursera and edX, the three
leading MOOC companies, took the education world by storm
and promised a lot» [Huffington Post]
«Many places offer MOOCs, and many more will. But
Coursera, Udacity and edX are the leading
providers.» [NYTimes]

23. Distributed Vectors
Representation
Two layer neural network
Input: text corpus
Output: set of vectors
Group the vectors of similar
words together in vector
space (detects similarities
matematically)

24. Predict a word using content
All
you
need
love
is

25. Resulting vectors

26. All
