Electronic Health Record Data
Electronic health record (EHR) data, encompassing structured and unstructured patient information, is increasingly leveraged for improved healthcare through machine learning. Current research focuses on developing efficient data processing pipelines, exploring the effectiveness of various model architectures (including deep learning, particularly neural networks and transformers, and graph-based methods) for tasks like disease prediction, risk stratification, and personalized medicine, and addressing challenges related to data heterogeneity, privacy, and interpretability. These advancements hold significant potential for enhancing diagnostic accuracy, optimizing treatment strategies, and accelerating medical discovery by enabling more robust and insightful analyses of patient data.
