Résumé
Technologies that can speedily and efficiently analyze large amounts of data in real-time are playing a critical role in helping healthcare professionals and governments predict the impact and spread of the Covid-19 virus over time. Enhanced data-sharing capabilities, particularly syndromic data between the population and health professionals, are also proving to be an indispensable tool for governments to confront the pandemic. Syndrome Anomaly Detection System (SADS) is an innovative platform that will help governments manage any health emergencies efficiently. SADS is an advanced real-time symptom collection and disease spreading analytics platform. SADS uses deep learning natural language processing (NLP) to capture a set of symptoms using conversations of patients from various sources including hospital triages, doctor’s offices, telehealth/pandemic hotlines, ambulances, online reporting systems, and social media. Other important information, such as age, gender, ethnicity, time, and location, are also anonymously collected from verbal and textual conversations. SADS then aggregates the syndromic and individual characteristics from these multiple sources and apply machine learning (ML) algorithms to classify and detect sudden increases in unusual syndromes in communities. SADS will immediately notify public health and government officials upon outbreak detection. Authorized parties can access both realtime and historical information in the analytics tools and further analysis of the data can be performed and shared with others. SADS will allow governments to manage disease outbreaks efficiently and in real-time. This platform will help governments save lives, reduce health care costs and hospitalizations.

Description (French)
Les technologies capables d'analyser rapidement et efficacement de grandes quantités de données en temps réel jouent un rôle essentiel en aidant les professionnels de la santé et les gouvernements à prévoir l'impact et la propagation du virus Covid-19 au fil du temps. Les capacités améliorées de partage de données, en particulier les données syndromiques entre la population et les professionnels de la santé, se révèlent également être un outil indispensable pour les gouvernements face à la pandémie. Le système de détection des anomalies du syndrome (SADS) est une plate-forme innovante qui aidera les gouvernements à gérer efficacement toute urgence sanitaire. SADS est une plateforme avancée de collecte de symptômes en temps réel et d'analyse de la propagation des maladies. SADS utilise le traitement du langage naturel par apprentissage en profondeur (PNL) pour capturer un ensemble de symptômes à l'aide de conversations de patients provenant de diverses sources, y compris les triages d'hôpitaux, les cabinets de médecins, les lignes directes de télésanté / pandémie, les ambulances, les systèmes de rapports en ligne et les médias sociaux. D'autres informations importantes, telles que l'âge, le sexe, l'appartenance ethnique, l'heure et le lieu, sont également collectées de manière anonyme à partir de conversations verbales et textuelles. SADS regroupe ensuite les caractéristiques syndromiques et individuelles de ces multiples sources et applique des algorithmes d'apprentissage automatique (ML) pour classer et détecter les augmentations soudaines des syndromes inhabituels dans les communautés. Le SADS informera immédiatement les responsables de la santé publique et du gouvernement de la détection d'une épidémie. Les parties autorisées peuvent accéder aux informations en temps réel et historiques dans les outils d'analyse et une analyse plus approfondie des données peut être effectuée et partagée avec d'autres. Le SADS permettra aux gouvernements de gérer efficacement et en temps réel les flambées épidémiques. Cette plateforme aidera les gouvernements à sauver des vies, à réduire les coûts des soins de santé et les hospitalisations.
