摘要:

目的:我们研究用于自然语言处理(NLP)的深度学习技术是否可以有效地用于患者表型分析。患者表型分析是用于确定患者是否患有医学疾病的分类任务,并且是医疗保健数据二次分析的关键部分。我们评估了深度学习算法的性能,并将其与经典的NLP方法进行了比较。材料与方法:我们比较了卷积神经网络(CNN),n-gram模型和基于cTAKES的方法,这些方法从临床记录中提取预定义的医学概念并使用它们来预测患者表型。使用从MIMIC-III数据库中提取的1,610份出院摘要,对10种不同的表型任务进行了性能测试。结果:CNN在所有10项任务中都优于其他表型分析算法。我们的模型的平均F1得分为76(PPV为83,灵敏度为71),我们的模型的F1得分比其他方法高出37分。我们还通过提出一种方法来评估我们模型的可解释性,该方法可以提取特定预测的最突出短语。结论:我们表明,基于深度学习的NLP方法提高了患者表型分析的性能。我们基于CNN的算法自动学习与每个患者表型相关的短语。因此,它降低了临床领域专家的注释复杂性,这些专家通常需要开发特定于任务的注释规则并识别相关短语。我们的方法在性能和可解释性方面表现良好,这表明深度学习是基于临床医生笔记进行患者表型分型的有效方法。

英文摘要:

Objective: We investigate whether deep learning techniques for natural language processing (NLP) can be used efficiently for patient phenotyping. Patient phenotyping is a classification task for determining whether a patient has a medical condition, and is a crucial part of secondary analysis of healthcare data. We assess the performance of deep learning algorithms and compare them with classical NLP approaches. Materials and Methods: We compare convolutional neural networks (CNNs), n-gram models, and approaches based on cTAKES that extract pre-defined medical concepts from clinical notes and use them to predict patient phenotypes. The performance is tested on 10 different phenotyping tasks using 1,610 discharge summaries extracted from the MIMIC-III database. Results: CNNs outperform other phenotyping algorithms in all 10 tasks. The average F1-score of our model is 76 (PPV of 83, and sensitivity of 71) with our model having an F1-score up to 37 points higher than alternative approaches. We additionally assess the interpretability of our model by presenting a method that extracts the most salient phrases for a particular prediction. Conclusion: We show that NLP methods based on deep learning improve the performance of patient phenotyping. Our CNN-based algorithm automatically learns the phrases associated with each patient phenotype. As such, it reduces the annotation complexity for clinical domain experts, who are normally required to develop task-specific annotation rules and identify relevant phrases. Our method performs well in terms of both performance and interpretability, which indicates that deep learning is an effective approach to patient phenotyping based on clinicians' notes.
