Digital Twin Ecosystem for Oncology Clinical OperationsHimanshu Pandey, Akhil Amod, Shivang et al.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLMs) hold significant promise in revolutionizing healthcare, especially in clinical applications. Simultaneously, Digital Twin technology, which models and simulates complex systems, has gained traction in enhancing patient care. However, despite the advances in experimental clinical settings, the potential of AI and digital twins to streamline clinical operations remains largely untapped. This paper introduces a novel digital twin framework specifically designed to enhance oncology clinical operations. We propose the integration of multiple specialized digital twins, such as the Medical Necessity Twin, Care Navigator Twin, and Clinical History Twin, to enhance workflow efficiency and personalize care for each patient based on their unique data. Furthermore, by synthesizing multiple data sources and aligning them with the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines, we create a dynamic Cancer Care Path, a continuously evolving knowledge base that enables these digital twins to provide precise, tailored clinical recommendations.

An adaptive wavelet-based PINN for problems with localized high-magnitude sourceHimanshu Pandey, Ratikanta Behera
In recent years, physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) have gained significant attention for solving differential equations, although they suffer from two fundamental limitations, namely, spectral bias inherent in neural networks and loss imbalance arising from multiscale phenomena. This paper proposes an adaptive wavelet-based PINN (AW-PINN) to address the extreme loss imbalance characteristic of problems with localized high-magnitude source terms. Such problems frequently arise in various physical applications, such as thermal processing, electro-magnetics, impact mechanics, and fluid dynamics involving localized forcing. The proposed framework dynamically adjusts the wavelet basis function based on residual and supervised loss. This adaptive nature makes AW-PINN handle problems with high-scale features effectively without being memory-intensive. Additionally, AW-PINN does not rely on automatic differentiation to obtain derivatives involved in the loss function, which accelerates the training process. The method operates in two stages, an initial short pre-training phase with fixed bases to select physically relevant wavelet families, followed by an adaptive refinement that adapts scales and translations without populating high-resolution bases across entire domains. Theoretically, we show that under certain assumptions, AW-PINN admits a Gaussian process limit and derive its associated NTK structure. We evaluate AW-PINN on several challenging PDEs featuring localized high-magnitude source terms with extreme loss imbalances having ratios up to $10^{10}:1$. Across these PDEs, including transient heat conduction, highly localized Poisson problems, oscillatory flow equations, and Maxwell equations with a point charge source, AW-PINN consistently outperforms existing methods in its class.

Advancing Healthcare Automation: Multi-Agent System for Medical Necessity JustificationHimanshu Pandey, Akhil Amod, Shivang
Prior Authorization delivers safe, appropriate, and cost-effective care that is medically justified with evidence-based guidelines. However, the process often requires labor-intensive manual comparisons between patient medical records and clinical guidelines, that is both repetitive and time-consuming. Recent developments in Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown potential in addressing complex medical NLP tasks with minimal supervision. This paper explores the application of Multi-Agent System (MAS) that utilize specialized LLM agents to automate Prior Authorization task by breaking them down into simpler and manageable sub-tasks. Our study systematically investigates the effects of various prompting strategies on these agents and benchmarks the performance of different LLMs. We demonstrate that GPT-4 achieves an accuracy of 86.2% in predicting checklist item-level judgments with evidence, and 95.6% in determining overall checklist judgment. Additionally, we explore how these agents can contribute to explainability of steps taken in the process, thereby enhancing trust and transparency in the system.

An efficient wavelet-based physics-informed neural networks for singularly perturbed problemsHimanshu Pandey, Anshima Singh, Ratikanta Behera
Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) are a class of deep learning models that utilize physics in the form of differential equations to address complex problems, including ones that may involve limited data availability. However, tackling solutions of differential equations with rapid oscillations, steep gradients, or singular behavior becomes challenging for PINNs. Considering these challenges, we designed an efficient wavelet-based PINNs (W-PINNs) model to address this class of differential equations. Here, we represent the solution in wavelet space using a family of smooth-compactly supported wavelets. This framework represents the solution of a differential equation with significantly fewer degrees of freedom while still retaining the dynamics of complex physical phenomena. The architecture allows the training process to search for a solution within the wavelet space, making the process faster and more accurate. Further, the proposed model does not rely on automatic differentiations for derivatives involved in differential equations and does not require any prior information regarding the behavior of the solution, such as the location of abrupt features. Thus, through a strategic fusion of wavelets with PINNs, W-PINNs excel at capturing localized nonlinear information, making them well-suited for problems showing abrupt behavior in certain regions, such as singularly perturbed and multiscale problems. The efficiency and accuracy of the proposed neural network model are demonstrated in various 1D and 2D test problems, i.e., the FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) model, the Helmholtz equation, the Maxwell's equation, lid-driven cavity flow, and the Allen-Cahn equation, along with other highly singularly perturbed nonlinear differential equations. The proposed model significantly improves with traditional PINNs, recently developed wavelet-based PINNs, and other state-of-the-art methods.

Wavelet-Accelerated Physics-Informed Quantum Neural Network for Multiscale Partial Differential EquationsDeepak Gupta, Himanshu Pandey, Ratikanta Behera
This work proposes a wavelet-based physics-informed quantum neural network framework to efficiently address multiscale partial differential equations that involve sharp gradients, stiffness, rapid local variations, and highly oscillatory behavior. Traditional physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) have demonstrated substantial potential in solving differential equations, and their quantum counterparts, quantum-PINNs, exhibit enhanced representational capacity with fewer trainable parameters. However, both approaches face notable challenges in accurately solving multiscale features. Furthermore, their reliance on automatic differentiation for constructing loss functions introduces considerable computational overhead, resulting in longer training times. To overcome these challenges, we developed a wavelet-accelerated physics-informed quantum neural network that eliminates the need for automatic differentiation, significantly reducing computational complexity. The proposed framework incorporates the multiresolution property of wavelets within the quantum neural network architecture, thereby enhancing the network's ability to effectively capture both local and global features of multiscale problems. Numerical experiments demonstrate that our proposed method achieves superior accuracy while requiring less than five percent of the trainable parameters compared to classical wavelet-based PINNs, resulting in faster convergence. Moreover, it offers a speedup of three to five times compared to existing quantum PINNs, highlighting the potential of the proposed approach for efficiently solving challenging multiscale and oscillatory problems.
