Query Networks for Medical Information Retrieval - Assigning Probabilistic Relationships (1990)
Steve B. Cousins, Jonathan C. Silverstein, Mark E. Frisse
Query networks are specializations of Belief networks used in information retrieval. We hypothesize that query networks can be incorporated into medical information systems in at least two ways:...

Retrieving Information from Medical Hypertext Systems
Although the introduction of powerful hypertext authoring tools simplifies the task of creating medical “hyperbooks”, these tools do not greatly simplify the difficult task of creating and using...
Automated Interpretation of Diabetes Patient Data: Detecting Temporal Changes in Insulin Therapy
Kahn, Michael G., Abrams, Charlene A., Cousins, Steve B., Beard, James C., Frisse, Mark E.
We are developing an expert system to interpret self-recorded, time-ordered diabetes patient data. One essential task in this program is the detection of significant changes in insulin therapy. This...
A Yeast Artificial Chromosome Library Database: Design Considerations
Frisse, Mark E., Ge, NengJie, Langenbacher, JulieM., Kahn, Michael G., Brownstein, Bernard H.
This paper first describes a simple collection of HyperCard stacks created and used by genetics researchers to catalog information in a human yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) library. Although an...

Query by Browsing: An Alternative Hypertext Information Retrieval Method
Frisse, Mark E., Cousins, Steve B.
In this paper we discuss our efforts to develop programs which enhance the ability to navigate through large medical hypertext systems. Our approach organizes hypertext index terms into a belief...
The Display and Manipulation of Temporal Information
Cousins, Steve B., Kahn, Michael G., Frisse, Mark E.
Because medical data have complex temporal features, special techniques are required for storing, retrieving, and displaying clinical data from electronic databases. One significant problem caused by...
Stochastic Simulation Algorithms for Query Networks
Steve B. Cousins, Mark E. Frisse, William Chen, Charles N. Mead
One of the barriers to using belief networks for medical information retrieval is the computational cost of reasoning as the networks become large. Stochastic simulation algorithms allow one to...
A Regional Health Information Exchange: Architecture and Implementation
Frisse, Mark E., King, Janet K., Rice, Will B., Tang, Lianhong, Porter, Jameson P., Coffman, Timothy A., ...
The MidSouth eHealth Alliance’s health information exchange in Memphis, Tennessee provides access to data on almost 1 million individuals. The effort is the product of a comprehensive, integrated...
