Research Interests
Within the overall objective of Decision Support Systems (DSS) and Medical Informatics, the group will focus on on the following research areas:
- Classification methods based on Fuzzy Cognitive Maps, fuzzy inference systems, genetic algorithms and neural networks.
- Formal verification methods of processes.
- Learning based on text mining and data.
- Connecting Electronic Medical Records and complementary information to clinical guidelines.
- Methods and capture, development, implementation and management of clinical knowledge processes.
- Generation of executables and graphically navigable clinical guidelines.
- Evaluation of DSS.
- Methods and technologies for the development of clinical guidelines which are executable execution platform´s independent.
- Methods and technologies for building Web portals containing executable clinical guidelines.
- Systematization of software development through Model Driven Software Development.
- Interpretation and evaluation of documents using Text Mining techniques.
In our long journey from 1994, as well as publications in the area, we have built:
- Inference engines as EHSIS and Mairi.
- Technological platforms for the development of clinical guidelines based DSS and their components.
- Clinical guidelines based DSS for the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases: diabetes, asthma, hyperammonemia, etc.
- Screening methods such as the Newborn Screening.
- Web portals that publish executable clinical guidelines for different diseases: e-GuidesMed, Guider and eGuider.
