There are tangible works in the literature emphasizing on developing readmission risk prediction m…
Deep learning predicts heart failure readmission from clinical notes.
Accurately predicting patients' risk of 30-day hospital readmission would enable hospitals to efficiently allocate resource-intensive interventions.

Hospital readmissions have become one of the key measures of healthcare quality. Preventable readmissions have been identified as one of the primary targets for reducing costs and improving healthcare delivery. However, most data driven studies for understanding readmissions have produced black box classification and p…
Hospital Readmissions within 30 days after discharge following Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Surgery are substantial contributors to healthcare costs. Many predictive models were developed to identify risk factors for readmissions. However, majority of the existing models use statistical analysis techniques with …
Heart failure (HF) is one of the leading causes of hospital admissions in the US. Readmission within 30 days after a HF hospitalization is both a recognized indicator for disease progression and a source of considerable financial burden to the healthcare system. Consequently, the identification of patients at risk for …
We develop a model using deep learning techniques and natural language processing on unstructured text from medical records to predict hospital-wide -day unplanned readmission, with c-statistic . Our model is constructed to allow physicians to interpret the significant features for prediction.
Deep learning predicts readmissions from less structured data.
ICU readmission is associated with longer hospitalization, mortality and adverse outcomes. An early recognition of ICU re-admission can help prevent patients from worse situation and lower treatment cost. As the abundance of Electronics Health Records (EHR), it is popular to design clinical decision tools with machine …
Objective: To compare different deep learning architectures for predicting the risk of readmission within 30 days of discharge from the intensive care unit (ICU). The interpretability of attention-based models is leveraged to describe patients-at-risk. Methods: Several deep learning architectures making use of attentio…
This paper provides a ML framework for diabetes prediction and care management.
Deep learning detects diabetic retinopathy stages from single fundus photos.
Improved model predicts ICU readmission and mortality with interpretable results.
Diabetes is a globally prevalent disease that can cause visible microvascular complications such as diabetic retinopathy and macular edema in the human eye retina, the images of which are today used for manual disease screening. This labor-intensive task could greatly benefit from automatic detection using deep learnin…
Health professionals can use natural language processing (NLP) technologies when reviewing electronic health records (EHR). Machine learning free-text classifiers can help them identify problems and make critical decisions. We aim to develop deep learning neural network algorithms that identify EHR progress notes perta…
CopulaSMOTE addresses class imbalance in diabetes prediction models.
According to the American Diabetes Association(ADA), 30.3 million people in the United States have diabetes, but only 7.2 million may be undiagnosed and unaware of their condition. Type 2 diabetes is usually diagnosed for most patients later on in life whereas the less common Type 1 diabetes is diagnosed early on in li…
New method interprets deep embeddings for diabetes patient clustering.
Electronic Health Records (EHRs) have been heavily used to predict various downstream clinical tasks such as readmission or mortality. One of the modalities in EHRs, clinical notes, has not been fully explored for these tasks due to its unstructured and inexplicable nature. Although recent advances in deep learning (DL…
Reinforcement Learning improves insulin bolus decisions for type-I diabetes patients.
Novel framework detects CKD in diabetic patients using sparse EHR representations.
Machine learning detects subtle glucose changes for early diabetes diagnosis.
The paper examines how calibration affects the interpretability of ML models in diabetes screening.
Paper develops NN models for diabetes screening using NHANES data.
Diabetes mellitus is a common disease of human body caused by a group of metabolic disorders where the sugar levels over a prolonged period is very high. It affects different organs of the human body which thus harm a large number of the body's system, in particular the blood veins and nerves. Early prediction in such …
Diabetes is a major public health problem in the United States, affecting roughly 30 million people. Diabetes complications, along with the mental health comorbidities that often co-occur with them, are major drivers of high healthcare costs, poor outcomes, and reduced treatment adherence in diabetes. Here, we evaluate…
Social media provide a platform for users to express their opinions and share information. Understanding public health opinions on social media, such as Twitter, offers a unique approach to characterizing common health issues such as diabetes, diet, exercise, and obesity (DDEO), however, collecting and analyzing a larg…
HAD-Net forecasts glucose levels with insights into insulin and carbs diffusion.
Prediction of disease onset from patient survey and lifestyle data is quickly becoming an important tool for diagnosing a disease before it progresses. In this study, data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) questionnaire is used to predict the onset of type II diabetes. An ensemble model…
Deep learning has been successfully applied to a variety of image classification tasks. There has been keen interest to apply deep learning in the medical domain, particularly specialties that heavily utilize imaging, such as ophthalmology. One issue that may hinder application of deep learning to the medical domain is…
A method models continuous-time glucose distributions in children with diabetes.
Managing patients with chronic diseases is a major and growing healthcare challenge in several countries. A chronic condition, such as diabetes, is an illness that lasts a long time and does not go away, and often leads to the patient's health gradually getting worse. While recent works involve raw electronic health re…
CNNs help diagnose diabetic retinopathy by localizing lesions.
We augment linear Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifiers by adding three important features: (i) we introduce a regularization constraint to induce a sparse classifier; (ii) we devise a method that partitions the positive class into clusters and selects a sparse SVM classifier for each cluster; and (iii) we develop a…
Neural system optimizes glucose levels in diabetics.
Background: Predictive modeling is a key component of solutions to many healthcare problems. Among all predictive modeling approaches, machine learning methods often achieve the highest prediction accuracy, but suffer from a long-standing open problem precluding their widespread use in healthcare. Most machine learning…
Participants enrolled into randomized controlled trials (RCTs) often do not reflect real-world populations.

Study discovers patterns in insulin needs for T1D patients.
Patients with Type I Diabetes (T1D) must take insulin injections to prevent the serious long term effects of hyperglycemia - high blood glucose (BG). Patients must also be careful not to inject too much insulin because this could induce hypoglycemia (low BG), which can potentially be fatal. Patients therefore follow a …
