Simplifying access to a Clinical Data Repository using schema summarization.
The University of Michigan Clinical Data Repository (CDR) integrates over 25 data sources, and as a result has a schema that is too complex to be directly queried by clinical researchers. Schema summarization uses abstract elements and links to summarize a complex schema and allows users with limited knowledge of the underlying database structure to effectively issue queries to the CDR for clinical and translational research.
