Diagnosis Method of Thyroid Disease Combining Knowledge Graph and Deep Learning

Abstract

The scale of medical data is growing rapidly, and these data come from different data sources. The amount of data is huge, the production speed is fast, and the format is different. Case data is very important because it contains a lot of medical knowledge about diseases, drugs, treatments, etc. It can provide important support for the development of smart medicine. Knowledge graph is a graph-based data structure, which can well represent the relationship between these medical data in reality and form a semantic network. This research uses knowledge graph technology to connect trivial and scattered knowledge in various medical information systems to assist in disease diagnosis. This research takes thyroid disease as an example, constructs a medical knowledge graph and applies it to intelligent medical diagnosis. First, extract the relationships between biomedical entities to construct a biomedical knowledge graph. Then, the entities and relationships in the knowledge graph are transformed into low-dimensional continuous vectors through the knowledge graph embedding method. Finally, the known pathological disease relationship data is used to train the disease diagnosis model of the bidirectional long short-term memory network (BSTLM). Experiments show that the thyroid disease diagnosis method that combines knowledge graphs and deep learning has a better diagnostic effect. This shows that smart medical care based on the knowledge graph will provide a solution path for alleviating the shortage of domestic high-quality medical resources.
