Predicting diagnoses from Electronic Health Records (EHRs) is an important medical application of multi-label learning. We propose a convolutional residual model for multi-label classification from doctor notes in EHR data. A given patient may have multiple diagnoses, and therefore multi-label learning is required. We …
Is it true that patients with similar conditions get similar diagnoses? In this paper we show NLP methods and a unique corpus of documents to validate this claim. We (1) introduce a method for representation of medical visits based on free-text descriptions recorded by doctors, (2) introduce a new method for clustering…
New method accounts for uncertainty in medical AI evaluations.
The study diagnoses fairness issues in healthcare models under distribution shifts.
Paper uses AI to improve medical diagnosis accuracy.
This paper introduces a novel low-cost device prototype for the automatic diagnosis of diseases, utilizing inputted symptoms and personal background. The engineering goal is to solve the problem of limited healthcare access with a single device. Diagnosing diseases automatically is an immense challenge, owing to their …
ConCare personalizes healthcare predictions by capturing EMR features.
RL algorithms with medical integration improve personalized treatment recommendations.
Febrile neutropenia (FN) has been associated with high mortality, especially among adults with cancer. Understanding the patient and provider level heterogeneity in FN hospital admissions has potential to inform personalized interventions focused on increasing survival of individuals with FN. We leverage machine learni…
Machine learning promises to revolutionize clinical decision making and diagnosis. In medical diagnosis a doctor aims to explain a patient's symptoms by determining the diseases \emph{causing} them. However, existing diagnostic algorithms are purely associative, identifying diseases that are strongly correlated with a …
Machine learning detects and diagnoses coughs for respiratory infections.
TIMELY improves consistency in labeling blood cell images.
Models extract relevant EHR snippets to aid radiologists in diagnosis.
New method uses surrogate outcomes and single-record data to improve suicide risk modeling.
Accurately predicting patients' risk of 30-day hospital readmission would enable hospitals to efficiently allocate resource-intensive interventions. We develop a new method, Categorical Co-Frequency Analysis (CoFA), for clustering diagnosis codes from the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) according to the …
Machine learning improves detection of Brugada Syndrome from ECGs.
Hierarchical-CPI improves variable importance measurement for medical data.
Personalized deep learning reduces inappropriate shocks in VA detection.
We propose a Bayesian model that predicts recovery curves based on information available before the disruptive event. A recovery curve of interest is the quantified sexual function of prostate cancer patients after prostatectomy surgery. We illustrate the utility of our model as a pre-treatment medical decision aid, pr…
Simulates patient pathways to detect delayed rare disease diagnoses.
This paper studies the trade-off between model accuracy and coverage for diagnosis models used by patients.
Early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and identification of potential risk/beneficial factors are important for planning and administering timely interventions or preventive measures. In this paper, we learn a disease model for AD that combines genotypic and phenotypic profiles, and cognitive health metrics of pa…
Clinical notes are text documents that are created by clinicians for each patient encounter. They are typically accompanied by medical codes, which describe the diagnosis and treatment. Annotating these codes is labor intensive and error prone; furthermore, the connection between the codes and the text is not annotated…
3D dataset for intracranial aneurysms aids deep learning applications.
This paper addresses privacy in federated learning for medical imaging by estimating model uncertainty.
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is a precursor to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. While over half of patients are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at a distant stage, patients who are diagnosed early enjoy a much higher 5-year survival rate of compared to in the former; hence, early diagno…
The paper extracts structured data from physician-patient conversations, reducing clerical burden.
Study batch reinforcement learning methods for personalized medical treatments.
Framework harmonizes EHR data across institutions for better analysis.
Deep learning methods exhibit promising performance for predictive modeling in healthcare, but two important challenges remain: -Data insufficiency:Often in healthcare predictive modeling, the sample size is insufficient for deep learning methods to achieve satisfactory results. -Interpretation:The representations lear…
Decision support tools that rely on supervised learning require large amounts of expert annotations. Using past radiological reports obtained from hospital archiving systems has many advantages as training data above manual single-class labels: they are expert annotations available in large quantities, covering a popul…
The widespread availability of electronic health records (EHRs) promises to usher in the era of personalized medicine. However, the problem of extracting useful clinical representations from longitudinal EHR data remains challenging. In this paper, we explore deep neural network models with learned medical feature embe…
Study proposes deep learning techniques to diagnose and differentiate Celiac Disease and Environmental Enteropathy from biopsy images.
Medical practitioners use survival models to explore and understand the relationships between patients' covariates (e.g. clinical and genetic features) and the effectiveness of various treatment options. Standard survival models like the linear Cox proportional hazards model require extensive feature engineering or pri…
Deep learning diagnoses MS from smartphone data.
Recent progress in deep learning is revolutionizing the healthcare domain including providing solutions to medication recommendations, especially recommending medication combination for patients with complex health conditions. Existing approaches either do not customize based on patient health history, or ignore existi…
Causal inference deals with identifying which random variables "cause" or control other random variables. Recent advances on the topic of causal inference based on tools from statistical estimation and machine learning have resulted in practical algorithms for causal inference. Causal inference has the potential to hav…
