This paper presents an approach to automatically mine rules in time series data representing physiological parameters in clinical conditions. The approach is fully data driven, where prototypical patterns are mined for each physiological time series data. The generated rules based on the prototypical patterns are then described in a textual representation which captures trends in each physiolog...

A MIMIC (multiple indicators and multiple causes) model serves as a strong statistical validation technique for a set of formative indicators (Bagozzi 2011; Cenfetelli and Bassellier 2009; Diamontopoulos and Winklhofer 2001; Jöreskog and Goldberger 1975), and can be used when reflective indicators of related constructs to the focal formative construct are available. The method uses the reflecti...

We present an automatic mortality prediction scheme based on the unstructured textual content of clinical notes. Proposing a convolutional document embedding approach, our empirical investigation using the MIMIC-III intensive care database shows significant performance gains compared to previously employed methods such as latent topic distributions or generic doc2vec embeddings. These improveme...

Emotional contagion has been defined as a tendency to mimic the emotions and non-verbal expressions of others, thus becoming ‘infected’ with another’s emotional state. In an organisational context, emotional contagion has been examined from both a group and leadership perspective. Previous authors have examined emotional contagion from leaders to followers, but no study to date has examined emo...

Coordinated development between the economy and the environment is currently one of the most important issues in China. By establishing models concerning labor income share and hidden carbon emissions, and taking trade as the link in their relationship, this study puts forward the scale effects, technological effects, and structural effects that relate to labor income share under the function o...

We use autoencoders to create low-dimensional embeddings of underlying patient phenotypes that we hypothesize are a governing factor in determining how different patients will react to different interventions. We compare the performance of autoencoders that take fixed length sequences of concatenated timesteps as input with a recurrent sequence-to-sequence autoencoder. We evaluate our methods o...

amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (als) misdiagnosis has many broad implications for the patient and the neurologist. potentially curative treatments exist for certain als mimic syndromes, but delay in starting these therapies may have an unfavorable effect on outcome. hence, it is important to exclude similar conditions. in this review, we discuss some of the important mimics of als.
