▼ Abstract :
Deep neural networks provide great potential to create accurate predictive models for longitudinal electronic health records (EHRs). In this talk, we will present a series of case studies of deep learning for modeling EHR.
1) We illustrate how recurrent neural networks (RNN) can be used to model temporal relations among events in electronic health records (EHRs) to predict heart failures.
2) We introduce two interpretable models, CAML for predicting medical codes from clinical notes, and RETAIN for modeling longitudinal EHR data.
3) Finally, we present a collaboration with Vanderbilt, medical Generative Adversarial Network (medGAN), to generate realistic synthetic patient records.
