Representation learning to advance multi-institutional studies with electronic health record data from US and France

1. 1Apply representation learning to electronic health record data to address heterogeneity in local coding practices
2. 2Utilize privacy-preserving collaborative learning to enable institutions to work together without sharing patient-level data
3. 3Develop and refine models to learn consistent representations of clinical concepts across different institutions
4. 4Evaluate and validate the performance of the representation learning approach using real-world health record data from multiple institutions

Data scientists and researchers on a team benefit from this approach as it enables them to collaborate on large-scale health record data analysis while addressing data privacy and heterogeneity issues. This is particularly useful for teams working on translational clinical research across multiple institutions.
