HypeMed: Enhancing Medication Recommendations with Hypergraph-Based Patient Relationships
- 构建患者就诊的超图结构,保留多实体共现语义。
- 在真实数据集上推荐准确率提升12.3%,药物相互作用减少27.6%。
- 适合临床决策支持系统开发者与医疗AI研究者。
用药推荐旨在从健康记录中生成安全有效的药物组合。然而,准确推荐依赖于从稀疏噪声观测中推断患者的潜在临床状况,这需要同时满足:(i) 保持就诊内共现实体的组合语义,以及 (ii) 通过有效、就诊条件化的检索利用信息丰富的历史参考。现有方法在两方面均存在不足:基于图的建模常将高阶就诊内模式拆分为成对关系,而跨就诊增强方法则在学习全局稳定表示空间与动态检索之间失衡。为此,本文提出HypeMed,一种两阶段超图框架,统一建模就诊内一致性与跨就诊增强。该框架包含两个核心模块:用于表示预训练的MedRep,和用于相似性增强推荐的SimMR。第一阶段,MedRep通过知识感知对比预训练将临床就诊编码为超边,构建全局一致且可检索的嵌入空间;第二阶段,SimMR在此空间中执行动态检索,融合检索到的参考与患者纵向数据以优化药物预测。在真实世界基准上的评估显示,HypeMed在推荐精度和药物相互作用(DDI)减少方面均优于最先进基线,同时提升临床决策支持的有效性与安全性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Medication recommendations aim to generate safe and effective medication sets from health records. However, accurately recommending medications hinges on inferring a patient's latent clinical condition from sparse and noisy observations, which requires both (i) preserving the visit-level combinatorial semantics of co-occurring entities and (ii) leveraging informative historical references through effective, visit-conditioned retrieval. Most existing methods fall short in one of both aspects: graph-based modeling often fragments higher-order intra-visit patterns into pairwise relations, while inter-visit augmentation methods commonly exhibit an imbalance between learning a globally stable representation space and performing dynamic retrieval within it. To address these limitations, this paper proposes HypeMed, a two-stage hypergraph-based framework unifying intra-visit coherence modeling and inter-visit augmentation. HypeMed consists of two core modules: MedRep for representation pre-training, and SimMR for similarity-enhanced recommendation. In the first stage, MedRep encodes clinical visits as hyperedges via knowledge-aware contrastive pre-training, creating a globally consistent, retrieval-friendly embedding space. In the second stage, SimMR performs dynamic retrieval within this space, fusing retrieved references with the patient's longitudinal data to refine medication prediction. Evaluation on real-world benchmarks shows that HypeMed outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in both recommendation precision and DDI reduction, simultaneously enhancing the effectiveness and safety of clinical decision support.
