A History-Based Algebra for Quality-Checking Medical Guidelines
In this paper, we propose a formal theory to describe the development of medical guideline text in detail, but at a sufficiently high level abstraction, in such way that essential elements of the guidelines ar...

The Role of Model Checking in Critiquing Based on Clinical Guidelines
Medical critiquing systems criticise clinical actions performed by a physician. In order to provide useful feedback, an important task is to find differences between the actual actions and a set of ‘ideal’ act...

Toward Probabilistic Analysis of Guidelines
In the formal analysis of health-care, there is little work that combines probabilistic and temporal reasoning. On the one hand, there are those that aim to support the clinical thinking process, which is char...

Understanding the Co-occurrence of Diseases Using Structure Learning
Multimorbidity, i.e., the presence of multiple diseases within one person, is a significant health-care problem for western societies: diagnosis, prognosis and treatment in the presence of of multiple diseases...

Discovering Probabilistic Structures of Healthcare Processes
Medical protocols and guidelines can be looked upon as concurrent programs, where the patient’s state dynamically changes over time. Methods based on verification and model-checking developed in the past have ...

Supporting Physicians and Patients Through Recommendation: Guidelines and Beyond
The recommendation task, intended as the task of supporting physicians in their activity (and, in particular, in decision making) by providing them indications of the most appropriate way of treating patients,...

Mining Hierarchical Pathology Data Using Inductive Logic Programming
Considerable amounts of data are continuously generated by pathologists in the form of pathology reports. To date, there has been relatively little work exploring how to apply machine learning and data mining ...

How to Read the Book “Foundations of Biomedical Knowledge Representation”
Biology and medicine are very rich knowledge domains in which already at an early stage in their scientific development it was realised that without a proper way to organise this knowledge they would inevitabl...

Hybrid Time Bayesian Networks
Capturing heterogeneous dynamic systems in a probabilistic model is a challenging problem. A single time granularity, such as employed by dynamic Bayesian networks, provides insufficient flexibility to capture...

A Hybrid Approach to the Verification of Computer Interpretable Guidelines
Computer Interpretable Guidelines (CIGs) are assuming a major role in the medical area, in order to enhance the quality of medical assistance by providing physicians with evidence-based recommendations. Howeve...

An Introduction to Knowledge Representation and Reasoning in Healthcare
Healthcare and medicine are, and have always been, very knowledge-intensive fields. Healthcare professionals use knowledge of the structure (molecular biology, cell biology, histology, gross anatomy) and funct...
