HERMES: Contrast-Aware Knowledge Graph Reasoning from Clinical Notes for Patient Outcome Prediction

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

HERMES is a graph-based framework that uses only clinical text to predict patient outcomes. It builds personalized Knowledge Graphs from clinical notes via Large‑Language‑Model‑guided extraction and Contrastive Logic Modeling, capturing temporal dynamics and treatment changes. A Graph Attention Network then synthesizes patient representations, and experiments on MIMIC‑III and MIMIC‑IV show HERMES outperforms text‑only baselines for in‑hospital mortality and 30‑day readmission prediction.

REFINE: LLM Refinement over Budgeted Text-Attributed Graphs for Personalized Medical Concept Representation

REFINE is a framework that refines medical concept representations by creating patient‑specific temporal graphs from a global text‑attributed knowledge graph. It uses a reinforcement learning policy to allocate a personalized graph expansion budget for each observed code, then processes the resulting graph with a heterogeneous GNN and a frozen LLM that refines representations via graph‑aware soft prompts. Experiments on MIMIC‑III and MIMIC‑IV demonstrate that REFINE consistently improves various EHR prediction backbones, surpasses strong baselines, and shows robust gains across ablation studies, KG selection, and data insufficiency scenarios.

Trajectory-Aware Clinical Risk Prediction via Severity-Grounded Knowledge Graphs and Retrieval-Augmented Generation

arXiv:2607. 18270v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While Electronic Health Records (EHRs) offer a wealth of clinical data, effectively augmenting a patient's records with heterogeneous external knowledge to predict the patient's clinical risk remains a significant challenge.

ChatHealthAI: Aligning Electronic Health Record Representations with Large Language Models for Grounded Clinical Reasoning

arXiv:2606. 02802v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) exhibit strong natural-language reasoning abilities for clinical decision support, but struggle to effectively model structured longitudinal electronic health records (EHRs).

Clinical Graph-JEPA: Predictive Patient-State Knowledge Graphs for Cognitive Decision Support

The paper introduces Clinical Graph-JEPA, a framework for building and refining predictive patient-state knowledge graphs from clinical records. It combines multi-agent relation proposal, ontology-aware normalization, deterministic evidence scoring, and JEPA-based latent refinement to construct evidence-scored graphs from MIMIC-IV data and recover missing clinical relations. Experiments show that injecting discharge-note representations into note-grounded entities boosts leave-one-out MRR by 31% relative improvement.
