The amount of health data is growing at an unprecedented rate, and 80 percent of it is going unnoticed because the data in it is unstructured, according to<\/a> Ginni Rometty<\/a>, chairman and CEO of IBM.<\/p>\n

Rometty said that <\/a>“Today, systems can hold large amounts of unstructured\u00a0data, but they actually don\u2019t know what it is.\u00a0You couldn\u2019t program enough systems in the world to understand that data. However, with the advent of cognitive computing, clinicians can gain new insights from unstructured data at both the individual and population health levels, empowering clinicians to make more informed patient diagnoses and enabling proactive and preventive interventions.”<\/p>\n

Joe Miles<\/a>, global vice president for the life sciences industry at SAP, said that<\/a> “a large part of the focus over the years has been on documents and not data. Consequently, analyzing and identifying causality across those documents has been very difficult if not impossible. \u00a0There is\u00a0a significant amount of productivity to be gained with technology that is able to scan those documents across any language in order to identify any trends, patterns or effects in the research and is a critical step in improving the R&D productivity for health sciences companies. \u00a0We see organizations struggle with the ability to have robust and productive capabilities in this area that allows you to review large amounts of documents and text across a variety of strategies.”<\/p>\n
