LongAgent uses history-guided search for longitudinal outcome prediction

Researchers have introduced LongAgent, a novel agent-based approach designed to improve the prediction of longitudinal outcomes, particularly in complex medical datasets. This system autonomously explores combinations of variables, temporal windows, and aggregation functions to identify the most predictive candidates. LongAgent leverages a memory of past searches and numerical evidence to guide its exploration, achieving a mean prediction RMSE of 1.7376 on synthetic data and performing comparably to existing methods on real clinical data. AI

IMPACT This approach could enhance predictive modeling in healthcare by automating the complex process of identifying relevant variables and temporal patterns.

    LongAgent: History-Guided Agentic Search for Longitudinal Outcome Prediction

    arXiv:2609.15859v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Extracting informative representations from longitudinal data that can predict future outcomes remains a critical challenge in medicine. Medical datasets are inherently heterogeneous, consisting of a large number of variables collec…
