DEVELOPING A FRAMEWORK TO INFER OPIOID USE DISORDER SEVERITY FROM CLINICAL NOTES TO INFORM NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING METHODS: CHARACTERIZATION STUDY

BackgroundInformation regarding opioid use disorder (OUD) status and severity is important for patient care.Clinical notes provide valuable information for detecting and characterizing problematic opioid use, necessitating development of natural language processing (NLP) tools, which in turn requires reliably labeled OUD-relevant text and understan

Recent advancements in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) have provided an opportunity to create autonomous devices, robots, and machines characterized particularly with the ability to make decisions and perform tasks without human mediation.One of these devices, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) or drones are widely used to perform tasks SENI

The emergence of electronic prescribing devices with clinical decision support systems (CDSS) is able to significantly improve management pharmacological treatments.We developed a web application available on smartphones in order to help clinicians monitor prescription and further propose CDSS.A web application (www.MEmind.net) was developed to ass

Fire exclusion and suppression has altered the composition and structure of Garry oak and associated ecosystems in British Columbia.The absence of frequent low severity ground fires has been one of the main contributors to dense patches of non-native grasses, shrubs, and encroaching Douglas-fir trees in historical Garry oak dominated meadows.This c

PT-Symmetry is one of the interesting topics in quantum mechanics and optics.One of the demonstration of PT-Symmetric effects in optics is appeared in the nonlinear directional coupler (NLDC).In the paper we numerically investigate the stability of temporal bright solitons propagate in a PT-Symmetric NLDC by considering Headlamps gain in bar and lo
