Abstract

To bridge the vocabulary gap between health seekers and providers is to code the medical records by jointly utilizing local mining and global learning. The emerging community generated health data is more colloquial in terms of inconsistency, complexity and ambiguity is overcome by machine learning process. Machine learning is achieved by using local mining and global learning techniques. Local mining database gets updated by global learning data. Global learning comprises a large collection of medical resources in its backend which helps to retrieve a related resource to the query based on terminology keywords.
