Personalized prediction of disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis using an adaptive deep neural network.

<h4>Background</h4>Deep neural networks learn from former experiences on a large scale and can be used to predict future disease activity as potential clinical decision support. AdaptiveNet is a novel adaptive recurrent neural network optimized to deal with heterogeneous and missing clin...
