Automating it is hard because the label space contains thousands of codes and clinical writing is noisy. The authors propose CAML (Convolutional Attention for Multi-Label classification). A CNN encodes a discharge summary.

These problems matter most in high-stakes settings such as medical diagnosis. MindMap is a plug-and-play prompting pipeline that pairs a frozen LLM, such as GPT-3.5 or GPT-4, with a knowledge graph.
