GraD-IBD: Graph Representation Learning from Diagnosis Trajectories for Early Detection of Inflammatory Bowel Disease 文章

arXiv:2605.27799v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is a globally recognized coding system that records diagnostic events during each patient encounter, providing a standardized data foundation for various clinical tasks. However, the irregular and hierarchical nature of ICD code sequences poses challenges for N-D lattice-based sequential modeling methods, leading to overly complex model designs. In this paper, we propose GraD-IBD, a graph diagnosis model that reformulates longitudinal ICD trajectories as visit-bucketized, temporally directed graphs to detect the risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). A novel context-aware, time-decay message passing mechanism was developed to capture temporal dependencies while reducing model complexity.
