The rapid growth of electronic health record (EHR) datasets opens up promising opportunities to understand human diseases in a systematic wa… (voir plus)y. However, effective extraction of clinical knowledge from the EHR data has been hindered by its sparsity and noisy information. We present KG-ETM, an end-to-end knowledge graph-based multimodal embedded topic model. KG-ETM distills latent disease topics from EHR data by learning the embedding from the medical knowledge graphs. We applied KG-ETM to a large-scale EHR dataset consisting of over 1 million patients. We evaluated its performance based on EHR reconstruction and drug imputation. KG-ETM demonstrated superior performance over the alternative methods on both tasks. Moreover, our model learned clinically meaningful graph-informed embedding of the EHR codes. In additional, our model is also able to discover interpretable and accurate patient representations for patient stratification and drug recommendations.

Purpose We developed an end-to-end workflow that starts with a vendor-neutral acquisition and tested the hypothesis that vendor-neutral sequ… (voir plus)ences decrease inter-vendor variability of T1, MTR and MTsat measurements. Methods We developed and deployed a vendor-neutral 3D spoiled gradient-echo (SPGR) sequence on three clinical scanners by two MRI vendors. We then acquired T1 maps on the ISMRM-NIST system phantom, as well as T1, MTR and MTsat maps in three healthy participants. We performed hierarchical shift function analysis in vivo to characterize the differences between scanners when the vendor-neutral sequence is used instead of commercial vendor implementations. Inter-vendor deviations were compared for statistical significance to test the hypothesis. Results In the phantom, the vendor-neutral sequence reduced inter-vendor differences from 8 - 19.4% to 0.2 - 5% with an overall accuracy improvement, reducing ground truth T1 deviations from 7 - 11% to 0.2 - 4%. In vivo we found that the variability between vendors is significantly reduced (p = 0.015) for all maps (T1, MTR and MTsat) using the vendor-neutral sequence. Conclusion We conclude that vendor-neutral workflows are feasible and compatible with clinical MRI scanners. The significant reduction of inter-vendor variability using vendor-neutral sequences has important implications for qMRI research and for the reliability of multicenter clinical trials.

Background Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a major driver of technological development in the 21st century, yet little attention… (voir plus) has been paid to algorithmic biases toward older adults. Objective This paper documents the search strategy and process for a scoping review exploring how age-related bias is encoded or amplified in AI systems as well as the corresponding legal and ethical implications. Methods The scoping review follows a 6-stage methodology framework developed by Arksey and O’Malley. The search strategy has been established in 6 databases. We will investigate the legal implications of ageism in AI by searching grey literature databases, targeted websites, and popular search engines and using an iterative search strategy. Studies meet the inclusion criteria if they are in English, peer-reviewed, available electronically in full text, and meet one of the following two additional criteria: (1) include “bias” related to AI in any application (eg, facial recognition) and (2) discuss bias related to the concept of old age or ageism. At least two reviewers will independently conduct the title, abstract, and full-text screening. Search results will be reported using the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews) reporting guideline. We will chart data on a structured form and conduct a thematic analysis to highlight the societal, legal, and ethical implications reported in the literature. Results The database searches resulted in 7595 records when the searches were piloted in November 2021. The scoping review will be completed by December 2022. Conclusions The findings will provide interdisciplinary insights into the extent of age-related bias in AI systems. The results will contribute foundational knowledge that can encourage multisectoral cooperation to ensure that AI is developed and deployed in a manner consistent with ethical values and human rights legislation as it relates to an older and aging population. We will publish the review findings in peer-reviewed journals and disseminate the key results with stakeholders via workshops and webinars.

Conjugate Adder Net (CAddNet) - a Space-Efficient Approximate CNN

The AdderNet was recently developed as a way to implement deep neural networks without needing multiplication operations to combine weights … (voir plus)and inputs. Instead, absolute values of the difference between weights and inputs are used, greatly reducing the gate-level implementation complexity. Training of AdderNets is challenging, however, and the loss curves during training tend to fluctuate significantly. In this paper we propose the Conjugate Adder Network, or CAddNet, which uses the difference between the absolute values of conjugate pairs of inputs and the weights. We show that this can be implemented simply via a single minimum operation, resulting in a roughly 50% reduction in logic gate complexity as compared with AdderNets. The CAddNet method also stabilizes training as compared with AdderNets, yielding training curves similar to standard CNNs.
Efficient Fine-Tuning of BERT Models on the Edge

Resource-constrained devices are increasingly the deployment targets of machine learning applications. Static models, however, do not always… (voir plus) suffice for dynamic environments. On-device training of models allows for quick adaptability to new scenarios. With the increasing size of deep neural networks, as noted with the likes of BERT and other natural language processing models, comes increased resource requirements, namely memory, computation, energy, and time. Furthermore, training is far more resource intensive than inference. Resource-constrained on-device learning is thus doubly difficult, especially with large BERT-like models. By reducing the memory usage of fine-tuning, pre-trained BERT models can become efficient enough to fine-tune on resource-constrained devices. We propose Freeze And ReconFigure (FAR), a memory-efficient training regime for BERT-like models that reduces the memory usage of activation maps during fine-tuning by avoiding unnecessary parameter updates. FAR reduces fine-tuning time on the DistilBERT model and CoLA dataset by 30 %, and time spent on memory operations by 47%. More broadly, reductions in metric performance on the GLUE and SQuAD datasets are around 1% on average.
High-Throughput and Energy-Efficient VLSI Architecture for Ordered Reliability Bits GRAND

Ultrareliable low-latency communication (URLLC), a major 5G new-radio (NR) use case, is the key enabler for applications with strict reliabi… (voir plus)lity and latency requirements. These applications necessitate the use of short-length and high-rate channel codes. Guessing random additive noise decoding (GRAND) is a recently proposed maximum likelihood (ML) decoding technique for these short-length and high-rate codes. Rather than decoding the received vector, GRAND tries to infer the noise that corrupted the transmitted codeword during transmission through the communication channel. As a result, GRAND can decode any code, structured or unstructured. GRAND has hard-input as well as soft-input variants. Among these variants, ordered reliability bits GRAND (ORBGRAND) is a soft-input variant that outperforms hard-input GRAND and is suitable for parallel hardware implementation. This work reports the first hardware architecture for ORBGRAND, which achieves an average throughput of up to 42.5 Gb/s for a code length of 128 at a target frame error rate (FER) of 10−7. Furthermore, the proposed hardware can be used to decode any code as long as the length and rate constraints are met. In comparison to the GRAND with ABandonment (GRANDAB), a hard-input variant of GRAND, the proposed architecture enhances decoding performance by at least 2 dB. When compared to the state-of-the-art fast dynamic successive cancellation flip decoder (Fast-DSCF) using a 5G polar code (PC) (128, 105), the proposed ORBGRAND VLSI implementation has
