Automatic ICD Coding Exploiting Discourse Structure and Reconciled Code Embeddings (2022.coling-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing studies did not exploit the discourse structure of clinical notes, which provides rich contextual information for code assignment. |
| Approach: | They propose to leverage section type classification and section type embeddings to exploit the discourse structure of clinical notes to generate rich contextual information for code assignment. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms state-of-the-art models on a MIMIC dataset by a large margin. |
