[link] Summary by Joseph Paul Cohen 6 years ago

The basic approach is an RNN applied to text to predict a medical event such as an ICD code. It is unclear if the complicated Bi-RNN model is required. 

This has some useful applications such as 
- Adapt old databases
- Correct errors
- Upgrade ICD versions

A simple diagram of an RNN applied to medical next is shown below:
