Publication alert! IALH Research Fellows Elizabeth Borycki and Andre Kushniruk have co-authored a research article entitled Integrating Human Patterns of Qualitative Coding with Machine Learning: A Pilot Study Involving Technology-Induced Error Incident Reports with IALH student Affiliate Amr Farghali. The article was published in Advances in Informatics, Management and Technology in Healthcare.
Abstract:
The objective of this research was to develop a reproducible method of integrating human patterns of qualitative coding with machine learning. The application of qualitative codes from the technology-induced error and safety literatures to the analysis of incident reports was done successfully, helping to identify the factors that lead to an error as well as the errors themselves. The method described in this paper may provide additional insights into understanding technology-induced errors.
