Thanh Thieu, PhD
Program: Machine Learning
Dr. Thieu’s research interests center on using natural language processing (NLP) to process free text clinical notes in electronic health records and free text scientific reports in (bio)medical literature. His research spans whole-person functional status information, knowledge graph extraction, high throughput text mining, lexical complexity and language generation, and computer-assisted coding for healthcare and medical billing.
