We focus on two challenges in decision support systems: the ability to test decision logic on retrospective data prior prospective deployment and the challenge of user-friendly representation of clinical logic.
A simplified, schematic representation of the logic tree data structure used is presented in Fig. 5.
Our framework consists of four main elements: services in representation of data, logic, and physical entities, a hub service used for notifications, a service-discovery mechanism, and execution engines (see Figure 1).
The initial version of the Arden Syntax for Medical Logic Systems was created to facilitate explicit representation of medical logic in a form that could be easily composed and interpreted by clinical experts in order to facilitate clinical decision support (CDS).
I'm also currently working on a visualization of game narrative that combines an aesthetic representation of game logic with a neat exploration of how games are made.
This compact representation of the logic of the three contexts by their stem bases enabled us to inspect them manually.
However, today at Partners, the collaboration environment is not integrated with the RAEs, so documents and specifications vetted by SMEs (e.g., free-text or intermediate representation of rule logic) are stored, maintained and shared separately from the RAE as Microsoft Word or Excel documents.
SBML Qual is an extension of the SBML level 3 standard and is proposed to provide a standard representation for logic and qualitative models of biological networks.
A robust RAE should allow KEs to create free-text or intermediate semi-structured representations of rule logic, allow SMEs to comment on and adjust the logic, convert them to a formal, executable representation, and then submit it to developers to integrate into the receiving application for execution, all in an integrated and systematic method.
A fast learning procedure is presented that allows symmetric networks to learn representations of unknown logic formulas by looking at examples.
