Type: Journal Article Year: 2022 Publication Information: Diagnostics 12, no. 12 (2022). DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12123181 Annotation: Describes process of discriminating between SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza-A, two conditions with similar symptoms, by using “novel text-based classification model.” Explains how researchers downloaded viral protein sequences of both conditions with varying lengths and selected random instances of each condition to form two-class dataset. Explains how researchers used “new feature extraction function based on a unique pattern, HamletPat, generated from the text of Shakespeare’s Hamlet” as well as “a signum function to extract local binary pattern-like bits from overlapping fixed-length blocks of the protein sequences.” English summary, online.   Language: English Keywords: medicine Tags: Scholarship, Criticism, History of Criticism WSB Update: Spring 2025 WSB Record Number: bbbm90
