TL;DR

This paper proposes Cardea, an extensible open-source automated machine learning framework encapsulating common prediction problems in the health domain and allows users to build predictive models with their own data.

Abstract

An estimated 180 papers focusing on deep learning and EHR were published between 2010 and 2018. Despite the common workflow structure appearing in these publications, no trusted and verified software framework exists, forcing researchers to arduously repeat previous work. In this paper, we propose Cardea, an extensible open-source automated machine learning framework encapsulating common prediction problems in the health domain and allows users to build predictive models with their own data. This system relies on two components: Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) – a standardized data structure for electronic health systems – and several AU TOML frameworks for automated feature engineering, model selection, and tuning. We augment these components with an adaptive data assembler and comprehensive data- and modelauditing capabilities. We demonstrate our framework via 5 prediction tasks on MIMIC-III and KAGGLE datasets, which highlight Cardea’s human competitiveness, flexibility in problem definition, extensive feature generation capability, adaptable automatic data assembler, and its usability.
