Neusten A. (ed.) Text mining of web-based medical content

Bostom: Walter de Gruyter Inc., 2014. - 285p.Text Mining of Web-Based Medical Content examines web mining for extracting useful information that can be used for treating and monitoring the healthcare of patients. This work provides methodological approaches to designing mapping tools that exploit data found in social media postings. Specific linguistic features of medical postings are analyzed vis-a-vis available data extraction tools for culling useful information.
