• Abstract: In the past decade, with the development of big data technology, an increasing amount of patient information has been stored as electronic health records (EHRs). Leveraging these data, various doctor recommendation systems have been proposed. Typically, such studies process the EHR data in a flat-structured manner, where each encounter was treated as an unordered set of features. Nevertheless, the heterogeneous structured information such as service sequence stored in claims shall not be ignored. This paper presents a doctor recommendation system with time embedding to reconstruct the potential connections between patients and doctors using heterogeneous graph attention network. Besides, to address the privacy issue of patient data sharing crossing hospitals, a federated decentralized learning method based on a minimization optimization model is also proposed. The graph-based recommendation system has been validated on a EHR dataset. Compared to baseline models, the proposed method improves the AUC by up to 6.2%. And our proposed federated-based algorithm not only yields the fictitious fusion center's performance but also enjoys a convergence rate of O(1/T).

  E-health allows smart devices and medical institutions to collaboratively collect patients' data, which is trained by Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to help doctors make diagnosis. Applying federated learning in e-health faces many challenges. Medical data is both horizontally and vertically partitioned. A naive combination of HFL and VFL has limitations including low training efficiency, unsound convergence analysis, and lack of parameter tuning strategies.

  Previous research has shown that jointly using clinical notes with electronic health record data improved predictive performance for patient monitoring. We first confirm that performance significantly improves over state-of-the-art EHR data models when combining EHR data and clinical notes. We then provide an analysis showing improvements arise almost exclusively from a subset of notes containing broader context on patient state rather than clinician notes.
