Journal Article
Reps, J. M., Garibaldi, J. M., Aickelin, U., Soria, D., Gibson, J. E., & Hubbard, R. B. (2013). Comparison of algorithms that detect drug side effects using electronic healthcare databases. Soft Computing, 17(12), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00500-013-1097-4

The electronic healthcare databases are starting to become more readily available and are thought to have excellent potential for generating adverse drug reaction signals. The Health Improvement Network (THIN) database is an electronic healthcare dat... Read More about Comparison of algorithms that detect drug side effects using electronic healthcare databases.

A Novel Semisupervised Algorithm for Rare Prescription Side Effect Discovery (2013)
Journal Article
Reps, J. M., Garibaldi, J. M., Aickelin, U., Soria, D., Gibson, J. E., & Hubbard, R. B. (2014). A Novel Semisupervised Algorithm for Rare Prescription Side Effect Discovery. IEEE Journal of Biomedical and Health Informatics, 18(2), 537-547. https://doi.org/10.1109/JBHI.2013.2281505

Drugs are frequently prescribed to patients with the aim of improving each patient's medical state, but an unfortunate consequence of most prescription drugs is the occurrence of undesirable side effects. Side effects that occur in more than one in a... Read More about A Novel Semisupervised Algorithm for Rare Prescription Side Effect Discovery.
