In this study, we present a recommendation system for semiautomatic assignment of ICD-10-AM codes to free-text patient records. Only expert annotators can assign codes to medical texts, and the lack of standardization of medical documentation and language specific problems make the assignment process even more challenging. Our system assigns a set of top k ICD codes for each document by exploiting the idea of bag-of-words and by using Lucene search engine and Borda Count voting schema. Before the code assignment task, we preprocess patient records to form query bags. Experiments on a set of clinical records show that promising results are possible for semiautomatic assignment of ICD codes.

Machine Learning and Rule-based Approaches to Assertion Classification
Uzuner, Oezlem; Zhang, Xiaoran; Sibanda, Tawanda (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2009-01-01)
Objectives: The authors study two approaches to assertion classification. One of these approaches, Extended NegEx (ENegEx), extends the rule-based NegEx algorithm to cover alter-association assertions; the other, Statistical Assertion Classifier (StAC), presents a machine learning solution to assertion classification.
Health monitoring of a bridge system using strong motion data
Mosalam, K. M.; Arıcı, Yalın (2009-07-01)
In this paper, the acceptability of system identification results for health monitoring of instrumented bridges is addressed. This is conducted by comparing the confidence intervals of identified modal parameters for a bridge in California, namely Truckee 180/Truckee river bridge, with the change of these parameters caused by several damage scenarios. A challenge to the accuracy of the identified modal parameters involves consequences regarding the damage detection and health monitoring, as some of the iden...
Multipath Characteristics of Frequency Diverse Arrays Over a Ground Plane
Cetintepe, Cagri; Demir, Şimşek (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2014-07-01)
This paper presents a theoretical framework for an analytical investigation of multipath characteristics of frequency diverse arrays (FDAs), a task which is attempted for the first time in the open literature. In particular, transmitted field expressions are formulated for an FDA over a perfectly conducting ground plane first in a general analytical form, and these expressions are later simplified under reasonable assumptions. Developed formulation is then applied to a uniform, linear, continuous-wave opera...
Ecodat: A web-based application and database for limnological monitoring data
Değermenci, Ali; Özen, Can; Department of Biotechnology (2022-10-10)
This study is focused on the elaboration of database application solutions for saving measured data in limnological monitoring. The purpose of the study is to give background information about monitoring data and the creation of a smart-accessible database system using query language and database management system Microsoft SQL Server 2012 while also providing a web application where researchers can reach, interact and save their fieldwork using C# .NET Core MAUI/Blazor framework. The thesis includes a data...

Systemic analysis of available large-scale biological/biomedical data is critical for studying biological mechanisms, and developing novel and effective treatment approaches against diseases. However, different layers of the available data are produced using different technologies and scattered across individual computational resources without any explicit connections to each other, which hinders extensive and integrative multi-omics-based analysis. We aimed to address this issue by developing a new data in...
