Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generating a heterogenous network and determining diffusion weights of scientific evidence in the heterogenous network. The computer obtains clinical data associated with a clinical network of healthcare providers and scientific data associated with a scientific network of scientists. The computer generates a first graph network representing the clinical network and a second graph network representing the scientific network. The computer identifies a first set of target nodes in the first graph network representing clinical leaders, and a second set of target nodes in the second graph network representing scientific leaders. The computer predicts links connecting the first graph network to the second graph network and generates a heterogenous network with nodes from the first graph network and from the second graph network, and the links connecting the first graph network to the second graph network.
