Graph Convolutional Networks for SEO: A Comprehensive Framework for Healthcare Information Ranking
摘要
Internet’s remarkable surge, ubiquitous accessibility, and serviceability have increased users’ dependency on web services for fast search and recovery of wide sources of information. Search engine optimization (SEO) has become paramount in healthcare industries, which helps patients enhance and understand their health status based on their records. In the context of healthcare, it is more significant to improve search results from specific keywords related to clinical conditions, treatments, and healthcare services. So, this research work proposes a Graph Convolutional Network (GCN)-based Search Engine Optimization (SEO) algorithm for healthcare applications. The algorithm utilizes two distinct datasets: MIMIC-III Clinical Database and Consumer Health Search Queries to optimize search engine rankings for health related queries. Following data acquisition, data pre-processing is performed for better enrichment of analysis. The preprocessing steps involve data cleaning, data integration, feature engineering, and knowledge graph construction procedures to remove noisy data, integrate medical data with user search behavior, compute significant features, and construct knowledge graphs, correspondingly. The relation between the data entities is examined within constructed graph through link analysis. The pre-processed data including medical knowledge weights, content relevance scores, and user interaction signals are processed further on GCN model with Adam-tuned weights and bias for ranking healthcare data based on relevance score in response to user query using cosine similarity. The search relevance estimation indicators namely recall, precision, f1-score, and normalized discounted cumulative gain (NDCG) are computed to measure search optimization performance. The proposed GCN-SEO approach benchmarked its effectiveness over existing methods in optimizing web searches related to healthcare with a high performance rate of 95.75% accuracy and 48.25 s dwell time. This shows its potential to improve search engine performance on healthcare-related search results.
