Motivation: Patient-generated text contains critical information about patients' lived experiences, social circumstances, and engagement in care, including factors that strongly influence adherence, care coordination, and health equity.…
The Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge based on the well-known Imagenet dataset catalyzed an intense flurry of progress in computer vision. Benchmark tasks have propelled other sub-fields of machine learning forward at an equally…
This study applies Large Language Models (LLMs) to two foundational Electronic Health Record (EHR) data science tasks: structured data querying (using programmatic languages, Python/Pandas) and information extraction from unstructured…
Extracting clinically relevant information from unstructured medical narratives such as admission notes, discharge summaries, and emergency case histories remains a challenge in clinical natural language processing (NLP). Medical Entity…
De-identification of clinical text remains essential for secondary use of electronic health records (EHRs), yet public benchmarks such as i2b2 2006/2014 are over a decade old and lack the semantic and demographic diversity of modern…
Introduction: Semantic search, which retrieves documents based on conceptual similarity rather than keyword matching, offers substantial advantages for retrieval of clinical information. However, deploying semantic search across entire…
Despite being a unique source of information on patients' status and disease progression, clinical notes are characterized by high levels of duplication and information redundancy. In general domain text, it has been shown that…
This study examines integrating EHRs and NLP with large language models (LLMs) to improve healthcare data management and patient care. It focuses on using advanced models to create secure, HIPAA-compliant synthetic patient notes for…
Functional evidence is essential for clinical interpretation of genomic variants, but identifying relevant studies and translating experimental results into structured evidence remains labor intensive. We developed a benchmark based on…
Sequence labeling is a widely used method for named entity recognition and information extraction from unstructured natural language data. In clinical domain one major application of sequence labeling involves extraction of medical entities…
Medical coding is the task of assigning medical codes to clinical free-text documentation. Healthcare professionals manually assign such codes to track patient diagnoses and treatments. Automated medical coding can considerably alleviate…
Medical information extraction consists of a group of natural language processing (NLP) tasks, which collaboratively convert clinical text to pre-defined structured formats. Current state-of-the-art (SOTA) NLP models are highly integrated…
Despite the advances in digital healthcare systems offering curated structured knowledge, much of the critical information still lies in large volumes of unlabeled and unstructured clinical texts. These texts, which often contain protected…
Objective: Clinical notes contain information not present elsewhere, including drug response and symptoms, all of which are highly important when predicting key outcomes in acute care patients. We propose the automatic annotation of…
Electronic health records (EHRs) are designed to synthesize diverse data types, including unstructured clinical notes, structured lab tests, and time-series visit data. Physicians draw on these multimodal and temporal sources of EHR data to…
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to extract structured information from free-text clinical records, but prior work often focuses on single tasks, limited models, and English-language reports. We evaluated 15 open-weight…
Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable performance across various domains, including healthcare. However, their ability to effectively represent structured non-textual data, such as the alphanumeric medical codes used in…
Ambient AI generates draft clinical notes from patient-clinician conversations, often using lay or consumer-oriented phrasing to support patient understanding instead of standardized clinical terminology. How clinicians revise these drafts…
The successes of foundation models such as ChatGPT and AlphaFold have spurred significant interest in building similar models for electronic medical records (EMRs) to improve patient care and hospital operations. However, recent hype has…
Clinical conversation summarization has become an important application of Natural language Processing. In this work, we intend to analyze summarization model ensembling approaches, that can be utilized to improve the overall accuracy of…
