The Death Certificate Surveillance was implemented in October 2001 to enhance New Hampshire's ability to monitor for bioterrorism and other public health threats, such as communicable diseases and chemical exposures. In 2003, this surveillance… read more -
Defining and Applying a Method for Establishing Gold Standard Sets of Emergency Room Visit Data
Content Type: Abstract
The goal of this paper is to describe a methodology used to create a gold standard set of emergency department (ED) data that can subsequently be used to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of syndrome definitions. -
Defining Clinical Condition Categories for Biosurveillance
Content Type: Abstract
The goal of this project is to create a set of clinical condition categories based on explicit criteria for use in biosurveillance programs. The categories will be defined and keywords and ICD-9-CM diagnosis codes for implementation will be proposed. -
Delineating Spatial Clusters with Artificial Neural Networks
Content Type: Abstract
Multiple or irregularly shaped spatial clusters are often found in disease or syndromic surveillance maps. We develop a novel method to delineate the contours of spatial clusters, especially when there is not a clearly dominating primary cluster,… read more -
Design of Web-Based Detectability Evaluation Software that Interfaces with a Syndromic Surveillance System
Content Type: Abstract
To design detectability evaluation software that interfaces with the Realtime Outbreak and Disease Surveillance (RODS) System. -
Designing Epidemiological Networks for Real-world Surveillance Settings
Content Type: Abstract
This paper describes the syndromic networks paradigm and its application to various surveillance settings. -
Detecting and Preventing Emerging Epidemics of Crime
Content Type: Abstract
We apply recently developed spatial biosurveillance techniques to the law enforcement domain, with the goal of helping local police departments to rapidly detect and respond to (or better yet, to predict and prevent) emerging spatial patterns of… read more -
Detecting Coherent Structures in Syndromic Time Series Using Wavelets
Content Type: Abstract
Temporally localized outbreaks occur in the presence of a complex background, greatly complicating both retrospective and real-time detection. Numerous techniques have been proposed for adjusting thresholds to account for this variable background.… read more
