High-throughput phenotyping with electronic medical record data using a common semi-supervised approach (PheCAP)
Implement surrogate-assisted feature extraction (SAFE) and common machine learning approaches to train and validate phenotyping models. Background and details about the methods can be found at Zhang et al. (2019), Yu et al. (2016) and Liao et al. (2015).
