The FAIR Principles are a set of recommendations that aim to underpin knowledge discovery and integration by making the research outcomes Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable. These guidelines encourage the accurate recording and exchange of structured data, coupled with contextual information about their creation, expressed in domain-specific standards and machine readable formats. This paper analyses the potential support to FAIRness of the openEHR e-health standard, by theoretically assessing the compliance with each of the 15 FAIR principles of a hypothetical Clinical Data Repository (CDR) developed according to the openEHR specifications. Our study highlights how the openEHR approach, thanks to its computable semantics-oriented design, is inherently FAIR-enabling and is a promising implementation strategy for creating FAIR-compliant CDRs.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
