Title
Machine Learning Approaches for Extracting Stage from Pathology Reports in Prostate Cancer.
Abstract
Clinical and pathological stage are defining parameters in oncology, which direct a patient's treatment options and prognosis. Pathology reports contain a wealth of staging information that is not stored in structured form in most electronic health records (EHRs). Therefore, we evaluated three supervised machine learning methods (Support Vector Machine, Decision Trees, Gradient Boosting) to classes free text pathology reports for prostate cancer into T,N and M stage groups.
