The document discusses the integration of text mining in various fields, emphasizing its importance in handling unstructured data, particularly in healthcare. It highlights challenges in normalizing diverse data inputs, such as gene mutations and various numerical forms, and proposes the use of natural language processing (NLP) to extract structured insights. The benefits of utilizing enhanced normalization methods and the extraction and search language (EASL) for efficient data analysis are also presented.

- 2. Agenda Introduction to text mining The challenge Applications of specialised normalization solutions − Maximising Source Normalization − EASL (Extraction and Search Language ) − Allows programmatic access to unstructured data similar to SQL over structured data. − Numeric Normalization & Range search − Capturing weights between 60 and 80kg whether expressed in kilograms or pounds, for patient selection from EHRs. − Gene Mutation Normalization − Use case where gene mutations have been linked to rare disease progression. © 2016 Linguamatics Ltd2

- 11. Text Mining - as Normal as Data Mining? © 2016 Linguamatics Ltd11 CHALLENGE How can we capture information from free text as conveniently as accessing a database? One of the essential differences is the lack of normalization of terms and concepts in free text. SOLUTION NLP-based text mining provides the capability to look through unstructured text normalizing: • Keywords to concepts • Numerical data • Range Search • Gene Mutations • Content source BENEFIT A set of structured facts, relationships or assertions, from different data sources that can be used for decision support Providing tabular or visual analytics to fill data warehouses and support better patient care.
