Attributes for causal inference in electronic healthcare databases (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Reps, J., Garibaldi, J. M., Aickelin, U., Soria, D., Gibson, J. E., & Hubbard, R. B. (2013). Attributes for causal inference in electronic healthcare databases.

Side effects of prescription drugs present a serious issue. Existing algorithms that detect side effects generally require further analysis to confirm causality. In this paper we investigate attributes based on the Bradford-Hill causality criteria... Read More about Attributes for causal inference in electronic healthcare databases.
