DKEC: Domain Knowledge Enhanced Multi-Label Classification for Diagnosis Prediction (2024.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Prior work focused on hierarchical label structures but neglected to incorporate external knowledge from medical guidelines. |
| Approach: | They propose to incorporate external knowledge from medical guidelines into domain knowledge enhanced classification for diagnosis prediction. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system outperforms state-of-the-art label-wise attention networks and transformer models on a real-world emergency medical services dataset and a public electronic health record dataset. |
A Corpus of Drug Usage Guidelines Annotated with Type of Advice (L18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Current research indicates patients are often unaware of such critical information / advice related to their prescription drugs due to lack of communication with their doctors and/or pharmacists. |
| Approach: | They propose an annotation scheme for annotating safety critical advice from drug usage guidelines and an annotated dataset containing drug usage guideline data. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset will accelerate further release of annotated drug usage guideline datasets and research on automatically filtering safety critical information from these documents. |
