Patient Reported Information Multidimensional Exploration (PRIME)

PRIME is an automated platform to investigate Online Support Group (a.k.a. health forums, online health groups) discussions for extraction and analysis of patient-reported information.

Source and Binaries

The java source of PRIME is included in the src folder which needs to be build using JAVA 1.8 and the dependencies included in the pom.xml need to be linked using maven.

The executable version of PRIME is included in the bin folder with the execution instructions.

Data

PRIME was trialled on publicly available, patient-reported information on Online Support Groups. Techniques used for extraction and processing of this data are included in this code repository.

Contributors

PRIME is a collaborative effort from the machine learning researchers of Research Centre for Data Analytics and Cognition with the guidance and support from the clinicians at Austin Health.

Publications:

The architecture, algorithms are explained and the results are discussed in the following publications.
