CLOZE: Letting AI Turn Doctors’ Notes into Smarter Medical Maps

CLOZE: Letting AI Turn Doctors’ Notes into Smarter Medical Maps

Medical ontologies are like maps of diseases, drugs, and symptoms. They power search, decision support, and research—but they miss many real-world terms used in doctors’ notes.

A new framework called CLOZE taps large language models to read clinical notes and suggest new concepts and where they fit in the hierarchy—without extra training data.

  • Zero-shot: Works out of the box; no labeled data needed.
  • Privacy-first: Automatically removes protected health information (PHI).
  • Richer coverage: Finds disease-related entities and their parent/child links.
  • Scalable & cost-efficient: Automates what used to be slow expert curation.

In tests, CLOZE extended ontologies accurately and at scale, pointing to better tools for biomedical research and clinical informatics.
