EMR-AGENT: Automating Cohort and Feature Extraction from EMR Databases

Kwanhyung Lee, Sungsoo Hong, Joonhyung Park et al.

Machine learning models for clinical prediction rely on structured data extracted from Electronic Medical Records (EMRs), yet this process remains dominated by hardcoded, database-specific pipelines for cohort definition, feature selection, and code mapping. These manual efforts limit scalability, reproducibility, and cross-institutional generalization. To address this, we introduce EMR-AGENT (Automated Generalized Extraction and Navigation Tool), an agent-based framework that replaces manual rule writing with dynamic, language model-driven interaction to extract and standardize structured clinical data. Our framework automates cohort selection, feature extraction, and code mapping through interactive querying of databases. Our modular agents iteratively observe query results and reason over schema and documentation, using SQL not just for data retrieval but also as a tool for database observation and decision making. This eliminates the need for hand-crafted, schema-specific logic. To enable rigorous evaluation, we develop a benchmarking codebase for three EMR databases (MIMIC-III, eICU, SICdb), including both seen and unseen schema settings. Our results demonstrate strong performance and generalization across these databases, highlighting the feasibility of automating a process previously thought to require expert-driven design. The code will be released publicly at https://github.com/AITRICS/EMR-AGENT/tree/main. For a demonstration, please visit our anonymous demo page: https://anonymoususer-max600.github.io/EMR_AGENT/

One-shot Ultra-high-Resolution Generative Adversarial Network That Synthesizes 16K Images On A Single GPU

Junseok Oh, Donghwee Yoon, Injung Kim

We propose a one-shot ultra-high-resolution generative adversarial network (OUR-GAN) framework that generates non-repetitive 16K (16, 384 x 8, 640) images from a single training image and is trainable on a single consumer GPU. OUR-GAN generates an initial image that is visually plausible and varied in shape at low resolution, and then gradually increases the resolution by adding detail through super-resolution. Since OUR-GAN learns from a real ultra-high-resolution (UHR) image, it can synthesize large shapes with fine details and long-range coherence, which is difficult to achieve with conventional generative models that rely on the patch distribution learned from relatively small images. OUR-GAN can synthesize high-quality 16K images with 12.5 GB of GPU memory and 4K images with only 4.29 GB as it synthesizes a UHR image part by part through seamless subregion-wise super-resolution. Additionally, OUR-GAN improves visual coherence while maintaining diversity by applying vertical positional convolution. In experiments on the ST4K and RAISE datasets, OUR-GAN exhibited improved fidelity, visual coherency, and diversity compared with the baseline one-shot synthesis models. To the best of our knowledge, OUR-GAN is the first one-shot image synthesizer that generates non-repetitive UHR images on a single consumer GPU. The synthesized image samples are presented at https://our-gan.github.io.
