Differentiable latent structure discovery for interpretable forecasting in clinical time series

arXiv:2604. 27967v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Background: We introduce StructGP, a continuous-time multi-task Gaussian process that couples process convolutions with differentiable structure learning to uncover a sparse, ordered directed acyclic graph (DAG) of inter-variable dependencies while preserving principled uncertainty.

PGP-Clinical-TimeKAN: Prior-Guided Joint Probabilistic Forecasting of Clinical Trajectories

PGP-Clinical-TimeKAN is a trajectory-first framework for joint probabilistic forecasting of multivariate physiological data, combining missingness-aware temporal encoders, a soft organ-system prior, patient-specific relations, nonlinear Kolmogorov‑Arnold messages, and a low‑rank multivariate Student‑t head. Evaluated on a MIMIC‑IV cohort of 6,882 patients, it achieves the second‑lowest normalized MAE and the lowest RMSE among 13 models, while providing calibrated probabilistic forecasts with empirical coverage at 50%, 80%, and 95% intervals. Ablation studies show that relational structure is critical for performance, and increasing covariance rank improves likelihood but not point accuracy. whyItMatters":"The model demonstrates that joint trajectory forecasting can yield highly accurate, calibrated predictions of physiological trajectories, offering a potentially inspectable intermediate task for clinical deterioration prediction."

Representation Before Training: A Practical Benchmark for Generative Medical Event Model Tokenization

The study benchmarks tokenization choices for generative medical event models, evaluating quantization granularity, reference-range anchoring, code–value fusion, numeric and temporal encodings, and native versus harmonized event representations. Using Llama and Qwen architectures, 156 models were trained and assessed on early hospitalization data, showing that fusing codes with value deciles and using event-order or admission-relative RoPE embeddings improved predictive performance. The Common Longitudinal Intensive Care Unit Data Format (CLIF) reduced token count by 30.8% while enhancing outcomes in most families.

Rolling Day-Wise Mortality Prediction in Critically Ill Patients With AKI on CRRT Utilizing Machine Pressure Waveforms

This study develops a rolling day‑wise mortality prediction model for critically ill patients with acute kidney injury on continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) by incorporating minute‑level machine pressure waveforms alongside electronic health record (EHR) data. After cleaning the raw machine data—aligning it with therapy intervals, removing priming and downtime minutes, and denoising artifacts—the authors trained a transformer‑based stacked ensemble that fuses a sequence transformer with classical models using circuit‑instability features and clinical variables. In a multi‑center benchmark of 976 patients, the combined model achieved a one‑day mortality AUROC of 0.766, outperforming machine‑only (0.625) and EHR‑only (0.717) models, and SHAP analysis highlighted key pressure‑related features such as filter pressure, transmembrane pressure, and access‑to‑return difference. whyItMatters":"By integrating previously discarded CRRT machine data, the study provides a continuous, real‑time risk signal that could enable earlier detection of patient deterioration and improve mortality prediction in a high‑risk population."

Trajectory-guided discharge stratification for heart failure using short-context electronic health record sequence modeling

arXiv:2511. 16839v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Purpose: Heart failure (HF) discharge planning depends on identifying patients at risk of deterioration or death, yet accurate prediction from routinely collected electronic health records (EHRs) remains challenging.
