Abstract

Data-Driven Healthcare (DDH) is defined as the usage of available medical big data to provide the best and most personalized care, which is believed to be one of the most promising directions for transforming healthcare. The healthcare data includes claims and cost data, clinical data, pharmaceutical R&D data, patient behavior and sentiment data, and health data on the web. There has been a remarkable upsurge in the adoption of healthcare data over the past several years. In particular, it has been used for medical concept extraction, patient trajectory modeling, disease inference, etc.
