Trustworthy Knowledge Graph Population From Texts for Domain Query Answering

2021 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON BIG DATA (BIG DATA), pp. 4590–4599.

By: J. Ao n, S. Dinakaran n, H. Yang n, D. Wright n & R. Chirkova n

author keywords: Text data; populating knowledge graphs; ontology-based information extraction; feature engineering
TL;DR: A scalable domain-independent text-to-KG approach that adapts to specific domains by using domain ontologies, without having to consult external triple repositories is introduced, which builds on the power of neural-based learning models and leverages feature engineering to distinguish ontology-aligned data from generic data in the source texts.

To Reduce Healthcare Workload: Identify Critical Sepsis Progression Moments through Deep Reinforcement Learning

2021 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON BIG DATA (BIG DATA), pp. 1640–1646.

By: S. Ju n, Y. Kim n, M. Ausin n, M. Mayorga n & M. Chi n

author keywords: Reinforcement Learning; Sepsis; Critical Decision
TL;DR: The Critical-DRL approach, by which decisions are made at critical junctures, is as effective as a fully executed DRL policy and moreover, it enables the critical moments in the septic treatment process, thus greatly reducing burden on medical decision-makers by allowing them to make critical clinical decisions without negatively impacting outcomes.
