• Abstract: Medication recommendation is a crucial task in healthcare, especially for patients with complex medical conditions. However, existing methods often struggle to effectively balance the reuse of historical medications with the introduction of new drugs in response to the changing patient conditions. In order to address this challenge, we propose an Adaptively Responsive network for Medication Recommendation (ARMR), a new method which incorporates 1) a piecewise temporal learning component that distinguishes between recent and distant patient history, enabling more nuanced temporal understanding, and 2) an adaptively responsive mechanism that dynamically adjusts attention to new and existing drugs based on the patient's current health state and medication history. Experiments on the MIMIC-III and MIMIC-IV datasets indicate that ARMR has better performance compared with the state-of-the-art baselines in different evaluation metrics, which contributes to more personalized and accurate medication recommendations.

  We propose a novel model called Robust and Accurate REcommendations for Medication (RAREMed) to enhance accuracy for rare diseases. It employs a transformer encoder with a unified input sequence approach to capture complex relationships among disease and procedure codes. It provides accurate drug sets for both rare and common disease patients, thereby mitigating unfairness in medication recommendation systems.

  StratMed is a stratification strategy that overcomes the long-tailed problem and achieves fuller learning of sparse data. It also utilizes a dual-property network to address the issue of mutual constraints on the safety and accuracy of medication combinations. Our model reduces safety risk by 15.08%, improves accuracy by 0.36%, and reduces training time consumption by 81.66%.

  Medication recommendation targets to provide a proper set of medicines according to patients' diagnoses, which is a critical task in clinics. We propose Conditional Generation Net (COGNet) which introduces a novel copy-or-predict mechanism to generate the set of medicines. We validate the proposed model on the public MIMIC data set, and the experimental results show that the proposed model can outperform state-of-the-art approaches.
