A probabilistic ontology-based platform for self-learning context-aware healthcare applications

作者:

Highlights:

• The architecture of a self-learning, ontology-based framework is presented.

• Framework enables context-aware applications to change their behavior at run-time.

• Knowledge added to the ontology is given a probability to convey its reliability.

• An implemented use case is presented: mining the reasons for patients’ nurse calls.

• Datasets of size >1000 with <5% noise yield correct results in negligible time.
