Personalisation of medical histories with Natural Language Generation
April 4, 2008 11AM-12PM, Engineering 2 Building, Room 215
The talk will be followed by lunch 12PM-1PM, same location


Speaker: Donia Scott


Abstract:
Personalisation is one of they key priorities for healthcare agencies in both the UK and the US. The Clinical e-Science Framework (CLEF) is a repository of well organised, detailed clinical histories, encoded as data that will be available for use in clinical care and in-silico medical experiments. This talk will present an overview of the CLEF concept, and will describe how natural language generation technologies are being employed to service the requirements of clinicians by providing on-demand a range of medical reports on the clinical histories of individual patients, tailored to different needs (e.g., perspectives and purposes).
