Electronic health records (EHR) consisting of the medical history of patients are useful in various clinical applications such as diagnosis and recommending medicine [22]. Traditional machine learning approaches often require careful domain-specific feature engineering to achieve good prediction performance. On the other hand, deep learning approaches enable end-to-end learning without the need of hand-crafted and domain-specific features, and have recently produced promising results for various clinical prediction tasks [17, 22, 29]. As a result, there has been a rapid growth in the applications of deep learning to various clinical prediction tasks from electronic health records, eg, Doctor AI [6] for medical diagnosis, Deep Patient [21] to predict future diseases in patients, and DeepR [23] to predict unplanned readmission after discharge. With various medical parameters being recorded over a period of time in EHR databases, recurrent neural networks (RNNs) can be an effective way to model the sequential aspects of EHR data and, in turn, enable applications in diagnoses [3, 6, 17], mortality prediction, and estimating length of stay [9, 27, 28].
