Description:
This PR implements KEEP (Knowledge-Preserving and Empirically Refined
Embedding Process) as described in the above paper.
KEEP integrates ontology-derived embeddings with empirical
co-occurrence learning to produce robust medical code embeddings
without task-specific end-to-end training.
This implementation includes:
(λ_i = λ / sqrt(freq_i + 1)) to improve rare-code robustness
An ablation study is provided in:
examples/mimic4_readmission_keep.py
The ablation evaluates:
Metrics reported:
AUROC, AUPRC, F1, Accuracy
Comprehensive unit tests using synthetic data are included
to verify:
