• Abstract: There has been a steady need in the medical community to precisely extract the temporal relations between clinical events. In particular, temporal information can facilitate a variety of downstream applications such as case report retrieval and medical question answering. Existing methods either require expensive feature engineering or are incapable of modeling the global relational dependencies among the events. In this paper, we propose a novel method, Clinical Temporal ReLation Exaction with Probabilistic Soft Logic Regularization and Global Inference (CTRL-PG) to tackle the problem at the document level. Extensive experiments on two benchmark datasets, I2B2-2012 and TB-Dense, demonstrate that CTRL-PG significantly outperforms baseline methods for temporal relation extraction.

  We propose a shape-aware relation network for accurate and real-time landmark detection in endoscopic submucosal dissection surgery. We first devise an algorithm to automatically generate relation keypoint heatmaps, which intuitively represent the prior knowledge of spatial relations among landmarks. We then develop two complementary regularization schemes to progressively incorporate the prior knowledge into the training process.

We propose a data-efficient RL algorithm that exploits structural causal models (SCMs) to model the state dynamics. We show that counterfactual outcomes are identifiable under mild conditions and that Q- learning on the counterfactual-based augmented data set converges to the optimal value function.
