Assisted Intelligence in Medicine using Interactive Graphs

ES, version 2022-01-15 /

  • Mission
    • Make medical knowledge better available for decisions using interactive graph technologies. Particularly about interactive differential diagnoses and recommendations of treatments, i.e.”meaningfull use” of available knowledge.
    • A new vision proposed for the former GrApH-AI project.
  • People
    • A community of physicians, data scientists and software developers. https://slack.com/ –> “GrApH AI ” ,
  • Decision support
    • Given information from the patient and from medical knowledge, try to provide recommendations.
    • The complexity of both kinds of information require a representation as graphs and the use of fuzzy logic.
  • Knowledge graph
    • Make a synthesis of best current medical knowledge from different sources as medical ontologies, courses, textbooks, litterature, and above all medical experts from specialized scientific communities.
    • Keep this synthesis up-to-date.
  • Patient record as graph
    • Patient information structured as a graph. Focus on the relations between symptoms, problems and actions.
  • Research
    • In order to improve the knowledge base, analysis of large populations of patient records. Improve the attributes of relations and particularly their relative weights.
    • Seek unsuspected patterns.
    • Evaluate the results of treatments.
  • NLP
    • Natural Language processing and conversion in graphs.
  • Human graph interface
    • Facilitate the understanding between graphs in human minds and graphs in machines.
  • Education
    • Training of students playing with graphs in order to discuss differential diagnosis and the potential benefits of next actions.
  • Brain storming and use cases
    • A patient arrive with a problem, for example chest pain, what are the relative priorities of what should be done next? which first questions ? which physical examination ? ask an ECG ? ask lab tests ? order images ? begin a treatment ? decide if an admission is necessary ? After every answer, evaluate the new situation and adapt the visual graph.
    • Use cases and invitation to propose new ideas.
