 FRONTEO Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, President: Masahiro Morimoto, hereafter FRONTEO) has announced the medical treatise search AI "Amanogawa ver. 1.4".

 

 AmanogawaIs a treatise search AI system equipped with FRONTEO's original AI engine "Concept Encoder (trademark: concept encoder, reading: concept encoder)".When the user inputs a sentence such as a word or hypothesis of interest, AI instantly detects and analyzes related papers from a large number of papers published in PubMed *, and plots them on the main screen "Space Map". increase.Individual papers are indicated by dots, and the degree of similarity of contents is shown by color and positional relationship, and the whole picture can be grasped at a glance. By using Concept Encoder, not only papers containing search terms but also search terms are included. A major feature is that it is possible to perform a "vector search" to detect treatises that use synonyms and that have similar contents and concepts.

 

 In addition, "Word Cloud" that visually presents the contents included in the search result categories, "Mesh Term" that shows the contents of each category and "Terms Frequency" that shows the frequency of appearance, and the yearly transition of the contents show the trend of treatises. Various functions such as "Chronological Chart" that can be grasped and "Card Box" that displays a list of the top 100 articles that are highly related to search terms and texts support a significant improvement in the efficiency of article search.

 

 Up until now, Amanogawa has been able to filter the search results in three ways: full results display, keyword search result display, vector search result display, and hybrid display of keywords and vector search results.With this version upgrade, a new "discovery search display" that displays only vector search results has been added, making it possible to clearly check article information that cannot be found without using Amanogawa.It is expected that this will lead to further efficiency and expansion of research activities and innovative discoveries.

 

 

An example of search result display.In addition to displaying all results (upper), keywords, vectors,
Convenience of information search is improved by switching between hybrid and discovery.

 

 Through the development of AI systems, FRONTEO will continue to contribute to improving the efficiency of medical and pharmaceutical research, promoting DX (digital transformation), and improving the quality of medical care and the QOL of patients.
