Abstract
With the rapid accumulation of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and the recent advance in data-driven algorithms, deep learning models have been increasingly applied to tasks in EHR-based predictive healthcare. This paper, motivated by the hierarchical structure of EHR data and the identified challenges in predictive healthcare, mathematically formulates a general architecture for learning patient representations for diagnosis prediction. With the guidance of the proposed general architecture, this work further discusses how existing works have incorporated various model designs to overcome certain challenges from four levels: diagnosis, visit, sequence, and framework-level. Through these discussions, this paper serves as a summary of existing works in modeling sequential EHR data, a cookbook for novices interested in EHR-based predictive healthcare, and a foundation for a future work, the idea of which are also introduced in this paper.
