Toward a Unified Graph-Based Representation of Medical Data for Precision Oncology Medicine

We present a new unified graph-based representation of medical data, combining genetic information and medical records of patients with medical knowledge via a unique knowledge graph. This approach allows us to infer meaningful information and explanations that would be unavailable by looking at each data set separately. The systematic use of different databases, managed throughout the built knowledge graph, gives new insights toward a better understanding of oncology medicine. Indeed, we reduce some useful medical tasks to well-known problems in theoretical computer science for which efficient algorithms exist.
