Installation :rocket:

You could install from PyPi:

.. code-block:: sh

pip install pyhealth

or from github source:

.. code-block:: sh

pip install .

Introduction :book:

pyhealth provides these functionalities (we are still enriching some modules):

.. image:: figure/overview.png :width: 770

You can use the following functions independently:

Dataset: MIMIC-III, MIMIC-IV, eICU, OMOP-CDM, customized EHR datasets, etc.
Tasks: diagnosis-based drug recommendation, patient hospitalization and mortality prediction, length stay forecasting, etc.
ML models: CNN, LSTM, GRU, LSTM, RETAIN, SafeDrug, Deepr, etc.

Building a healthcare AI pipeline can be as short as 10 lines of code in PyHealth.

Build ML Pipelines :trophy:

All healthcare tasks in our package follow a five-stage pipeline:

.. image:: figure/five-stage-pipeline.png :width: 640

We try hard to make sure each stage is as separate as possible, so that people can customize their own pipeline by only using our data processing steps or the ML models.

Module 1: <pyhealth.datasets> """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

pyhealth.datasets provides a clean structure for the dataset, independent from the tasks. We support MIMIC-III, MIMIC-IV and eICU, etc. The output (mimic3base) is a multi-level dictionary structure (see illustration below).

.. code-block:: python

from pyhealth.datasets import MIMIC3Dataset

mimic3base = MIMIC3Dataset(
    # root directory of the dataset
    root="https://storage.googleapis.com/pyhealth/Synthetic_MIMIC-III/", 
    # raw CSV table name
    tables=["DIAGNOSES_ICD", "PROCEDURES_ICD", "PRESCRIPTIONS"],
    # map all NDC codes to CCS codes in these tables
    code_mapping={"NDC": "CCSCM"},
)

.. image:: figure/structured-dataset.png :width: 400

Module 2: <pyhealth.tasks> """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

pyhealth.tasks defines how to process each patient's data into a set of samples for the tasks. In the package, we provide several task examples, such as drug recommendation and length of stay prediction. It is easy to customize your own tasks following our template <https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1r7MYQR_5yCJGpK_9I9-A10HmpupZuIN-?usp=sharing>_.

.. code-block:: python

from pyhealth.tasks import readmission_prediction_mimic3_fn

mimic3sample = mimic3base.set_task(task_fn=readmission_prediction_mimic3_fn) # use default task
mimic3sample.samples[0] # show the information of the first sample
"""
{
    'visit_id': '100183',
    'patient_id': '175',
    'conditions': ['5990', '4280', '2851', '4240', '2749', '9982', 'E8499', '42831', '34600'],
    'procedures': ['0040', '3931', '7769'],
    'drugs': ['N06DA02', 'V06DC01', 'B01AB01', 'A06AA02', 'R03AC02', 'H03AA01', 'J01FA09'],
    'label': 0
}
"""

from pyhealth.datasets import split_by_patient, get_dataloader

train_ds, val_ds, test_ds = split_by_patient(mimic3sample, [0.8, 0.1, 0.1])
train_loader = get_dataloader(train_ds, batch_size=32, shuffle=True)
val_loader = get_dataloader(val_ds, batch_size=32, shuffle=False)
test_loader = get_dataloader(test_ds, batch_size=32, shuffle=False)

Module 3: <pyhealth.models> """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

pyhealth.models provides different ML models with very similar argument configs.

.. code-block:: python

from pyhealth.models import Transformer

model = Transformer(
    dataset=mimic3sample,
    feature_keys=["conditions", "procedures", "drug"],
    label_key="label",
    mode="binary",
)

Module 4: <pyhealth.trainer> """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

pyhealth.trainer can specify training arguments, such as epochs, optimizer, learning rate, etc. The trainer will automatically save the best model and output the path in the end.

.. code-block:: python

from pyhealth.trainer import Trainer

trainer = Trainer(model=model)
trainer.train(
    train_dataloader=train_loader,
    val_dataloader=val_loader,
    epochs=50,
    monitor="pr_auc_samples",
)

Module 5: <pyhealth.metrics> """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

pyhealth.metrics provides several common evaluation metrics (refer to Doc <https://pyhealth.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api/metrics.html>_ and see what are available).

.. code-block:: python

# method 1
trainer.evaluate(test_loader)

# method 2
from pyhealth.metrics.binary import binary_metrics_fn

y_true, y_prob, loss = trainer.inference(test_loader)
binary_metrics_fn(y_true, y_prob, metrics=["pr_auc", "roc_auc"])

Medical Code Map :hospital:

pyhealth.codemap provides two core functionalities. This module can be used independently.

For code ontology lookup within one medical coding system (e.g., name, category, sub-concept);

.. code-block:: python

from pyhealth.medcode import InnerMap

icd9cm = InnerMap.load("ICD9CM")
icd9cm.lookup("428.0")
# `Congestive heart failure, unspecified`
icd9cm.get_ancestors("428.0")
# ['428', '420-429.99', '390-459.99', '001-999.99']

atc = InnerMap.load("ATC")
atc.lookup("M01AE51")
# `ibuprofen, combinations`
atc.lookup("M01AE51", "drugbank_id")
# `DB01050`
atc.lookup("M01AE51", "description")
# Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) derived ...
atc.lookup("M01AE51", "indication")
# Ibuprofen is the most commonly used and prescribed NSAID. It is very common over the ...

For code mapping between two coding systems (e.g., ICD9CM to CCSCM).

.. code-block:: python

from pyhealth.medcode import CrossMap

codemap = CrossMap.load("ICD9CM", "CCSCM")
codemap.map("428.0")
# ['108']

codemap = CrossMap.load("NDC", "RxNorm")
codemap.map("50580049698")
# ['209387']

codemap = CrossMap.load("NDC", "ATC")
codemap.map("50090539100")
# ['A10AC04', 'A10AD04', 'A10AB04']

Medical Code Tokenizer :speech_balloon:

pyhealth.tokenizer is used for transformations between string-based tokens and integer-based indices, based on the overall token space. We provide flexible functions to tokenize 1D, 2D and 3D lists. This module can be used independently.

.. code-block:: python

from pyhealth.tokenizer import Tokenizer

# Example: we use a list of ATC3 code as the token
token_space = ['A01A', 'A02A', 'A02B', 'A02X', 'A03A', 'A03B', 'A03C', 'A03D', \
        'A03F', 'A04A', 'A05A', 'A05B', 'A05C', 'A06A', 'A07A', 'A07B', 'A07C', \
        'A12B', 'A12C', 'A13A', 'A14A', 'A14B', 'A16A']
tokenizer = Tokenizer(tokens=token_space, special_tokens=["<pad>", "<unk>"])

# 2d encode 
tokens = [['A03C', 'A03D', 'A03E', 'A03F'], ['A04A', 'B035', 'C129']]
indices = tokenizer.batch_encode_2d(tokens) 
# [[8, 9, 10, 11], [12, 1, 1, 0]]

# 2d decode 
indices = [[8, 9, 10, 11], [12, 1, 1, 0]]
tokens = tokenizer.batch_decode_2d(indices)
# [['A03C', 'A03D', 'A03E', 'A03F'], ['A04A', '<unk>', '<unk>']]

# 3d encode
tokens = [[['A03C', 'A03D', 'A03E', 'A03F'], ['A08A', 'A09A']], \
    [['A04A', 'B035', 'C129']]]
indices = tokenizer.batch_encode_3d(tokens)
# [[[8, 9, 10, 11], [24, 25, 0, 0]], [[12, 1, 1, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0]]]

# 3d decode
indices = [[[8, 9, 10, 11], [24, 25, 0, 0]], \
    [[12, 1, 1, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0]]]
tokens = tokenizer.batch_decode_3d(indices)
# [[['A03C', 'A03D', 'A03E', 'A03F'], ['A08A', 'A09A']], [['A04A', '<unk>', '<unk>']]]
