An AI-Based Approach to Analysis of Medical Innovation: A Case of Uncerative Colitis Treatment

The role of AI which has been put into practical use recently can be roughly divided into two. One is supplementation of work which human beings have done so far and the other is in areas in which AI outperforms human's work. This paper introduces the process of analyzing the mechanism of occurrence of medical innovation based on natural language processing combined with machine learning techniques, which enables processing a large volume of medical information far more efficiently than a human being. Specifically, with our approach, combined with our dataset, a person can easily understand trends in innovation in treatment method of an intractable disease A case study of the analysis of an innovation process where research efforts had found an effective treatment of is discussed.
