Structured Clinical Documentation as Upstream Data Engineering: A Systematic Review of Ambient-AI and LLM-Driven Inputs for Predictive Modeling in Healthcare

This systematic review of 52 studies demonstrates that structured clinical documentation technologies, ranging from rule-based templates to ambient-AI and LLM-driven systems, act as critical upstream data engineering mechanisms that enhance data quality and significantly improve the predictive performance of machine learning models for key healthcare outcomes, though further research is needed to address gaps in external validation and bias mitigation.

Automatic Discovery of Intra-Class Sub-Structure for Supervised Tabular Classification: Offline Clustering vs. Joint Sub-Center Training

This rigorous empirical study demonstrates that while conventional offline clustering of penultimate features to discover intra-class sub-structure is unreliable and often degrades tabular classification performance, a joint end-to-end sub-center training approach effectively mitigates these risks, though the authors conclude that no robust heuristic currently exists to predict when such sub-structure discovery is beneficial.

CATD-LPT-CFPM- Cluster Aware Top-Down Linear Prefix Tree for Closed Frequent Pattern Mining

The paper proposes the CATD-LPT-CFPM framework, which enhances closed frequent pattern mining by clustering transactions to reduce search space and employing a multi-level pruning strategy with a Top-Down Closedness Pruning mechanism to minimize redundant processing and memory usage, despite incurring some overhead from clustering and tree construction.
