Determining Uncertainty in Clinical Report Writing
From REU@MU
Project Background
It is important in clinical report writing to be clear in delivering diagnoses for both the patient and the doctors delivering care. When words that negate these conclusions are used in reports, it can lead to confusion and potentially lead to someone not recieving proper care.
Project Description
The goal of this project is to find the best way of quantifying uncertainty in clinical reports using natural language processing and machine learning to determine the quality of the report.
