Automatic generation of textual summaries from neonatal intensive care data

Abstract: Effective presentation of data for decision support is a major issue when large volumes\ud of data are generated as happens in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Although the most\ud common approach is to present the data graphically, it has been shown that textual\ud summarisation can lead to improved decision making. As part of the BabyTalk project,\ud we present a prototype, called BT-45, which generates textual summaries of about 45\ud minutes of continuous physiological signals and discrete events (e.g.: equi… Show more

“…Gatt et al [18,37] have built a natural language generation system for intensive care units. This system can automatically generate textual summaries from the patient's medical data, e.g., by reporting that SpO2 increased from 88% to 97% between 3:00 am and 6:00 am.…”
