Abstract
Automatic detection of disease presence from combining disease-specific measurements with textual descriptions of disease and its severity in unstructured textual reports is provided. In various embodiments, a knowledge graph of clinical concepts is read. Based on the knowledge graph, a plurality of associations are determined between disease names, symptoms, anatomical abnormalities, and qualifiers. A corpus of clinical reports is read. Based on the plurality of associations, a plurality of portions indicative of a disease condition are located within the corpus of clinical reports. Within each of the plurality of portions, name/value pairs are detected corresponding to measurements indicative of the disease condition. The measurements indicative of the disease condition are extracted.
