As part of the 2023 PhysioNet Challenge, our team FINDING_MEMO utilized Transformer to predict outcomes using patient EEG data since it excels at dealing with sequential data like EEG. We mainly used the Transformer encoder block's multi-head self-attention to generate representations from the input and leverage several hidden layers to form the final prediction. Using the latest EEG from every patient, our team achieved the challenge score of 0.42 with the hidden validation set (ranked 36th out of 73 invited teams) and obtained a result of 0.37 (ranked 29th out of 36 qualified teams). Our results show a consistent performance across varying EEG recording durations in both the validation and test set. Our team also had the second-best score when evaluated, with only 12 hours of available recordings in the test set. Such promising results showcase the models' generalizability and clinical potential in predicting outcomes for comatose patients, especially for limited available EEG recordings.

Electronic Health Records (EHRs) are a cornerstone of modern healthcare analytics, offering rich datasets for various disease analyses through advanced deep learning algorithms. However, the pervasive issue of missing values in EHRs significantly hampers the development and performance of these models. Addressing this challenge is crucial for enhancing clinical decision-making and patient care. Existing methods for handling missing data, ranging from simple imputation to more sophisticated approaches, often fall short of capturing the temporal dynamics inherent in EHRs. To bridge this gap, we introduce the Deep Stochastic Time-series Imputation (Deep STI) algorithm, an innovative end-to-end deep learning model that seamlessly integrates a sequence-to-sequence generative network with a prediction network. Deep STI is designed to leverage the observed time-series data in EHRs, learning to infer missing values from the temporal context with high accuracy. We evaluated Deep STI on the liver cancer data from the National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH), Taiwan. Our results showed that Deep STI achieved better 5-year hepatocellular carcinoma predictions (19.21% in the area under the precision-recall curve) than extreme gradient boosting (18.15%) and Transformer (18.09%). The ablation study also illustrates the efficacy of our generative architecture design compared to regular imputations. This approach not only promises to improve the reliability of disease analysis in the presence of incomplete data but also sets a new standard for utilizing EHRs in predictive healthcare. Our work aims to advance the field of healthcare analytics and open new avenues for research in deep learning applications to EHRs.

Deep learning has revolutionized medical imaging, offering advanced methods for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. The BCLC staging system is crucial for staging Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC), a high-mortality cancer. An automated BCLC staging system could significantly enhance diagnosis and treatment planning efficiency. However, we found that BCLC staging, which is directly related to the size and number of liver tumors, aligns well with the principles of the Multiple Instance Learning (MIL) framework. To effectively achieve this, we proposed a new preprocessing technique called Masked Cropping and Padding(MCP), which addresses the variability in liver volumes and ensures consistent input sizes. This technique preserves the structural integrity of the liver, facilitating more effective learning. Furthermore, we introduced Re ViT, a novel hybrid model that integrates the local feature extraction capabilities of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) with the global context modeling of Vision Transformers (ViTs). Re ViT leverages the strengths of both architectures within the MIL framework, enabling a robust and accurate approach for BCLC staging. We will further explore the trade-off between performance and interpretability by employing TopK Pooling strategies, as our model focuses on the most informative instances within each bag.

The Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) staging system plays a crucial role in clinical planning, offering valuable insights for effectively managing hepatocellular carcinoma. Accurate prediction of BCLC stages can significantly ease the workload on radiologists. However, few datasets are explicitly designed for discerning BCLC stages. Despite the common practice of appending BCLC labels to clinical data within datasets, the inherent imbalance in BCLC distribution is further amplified by the diverse purposes for which datasets are curated. In this study, we aim to develop a BCLC staging system using the advanced Swin Transformer model. Additionally, we explore the integration of two datasets, each originally intended for separate objectives, highlighting the critical challenge of preserving class distribution in practical study designs. This exploration is pivotal for ensuring the applicability of our developed staging system in the designed clinical settings. Our resulting BCLC staging system demonstrates an accuracy of 55.81% (±7.8%), contributing to advancing medical image-based research for predicting BCLC stages.

Dynamic programming is a fundamental algorithm that can be found in our daily lives easily. One of the dynamic programming algorithm implementations consists of solving the 0/1 knapsack problem. A 0/1 knapsack problem can be seen from industrial production cost. It is prevalent that a production cost has to be as efficient as possible, but the expectation is to get the proceeds of the products higher. Thus, the dynamic programming algorithm can be implemented to solve the diverse knapsack problem, one of which is the 0/1 knapsack problem, which would be the main focus of this paper. The implementation was implemented using C language. This paper was created as an early implementation algorithm using a Dynamic program algorithm applied to an Automatic Identification System (AIS) dataset.

Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) poses a significant health challenge, necessitating accurate predictions of neurological outcomes in comatose patients, where good outcomes are defined as the recovery of most cognitive functions. Electroencephalogram (EEG) serves as a valuable biomarker for monitoring neurological states due to its rich, time-dependent information. This study aims to predict neurological outcomes using early EEG data by employing the Transformer model, which leverages multi-headed attention to identify patterns in lengthy sequences such as hour-long EEG recordings. Unlike traditional methods that use subsampled EEG epochs, we utilize the entire EEG sequences, subdivided into time steps, allowing our model to capture detailed temporal patterns via the attention mechanism. Moreover, we trained our proposed model using each EEG recording as an individual data sample but evaluated our model through aggregated patient-wise predictions. This approach allows us to boost the data sample size. Our results demonstrate promising predictive performance, achieving an AUROC of 0.82 and AUPRC of 0.90 on the holdout test set and an AUROC of 0.73 and AUPRC of 0.93 on an external test set with patient-wise predictions. This study highlights the potential of utilizing attention mechanisms to capture important time series progressions across EEG sequences for improving SCA prognosis.
