An Extensive Data Processing Pipeline for MIMIC-IV.

ABSTRACT: An increasing amount of research is being devoted to applying machine learning methods to electronic health record (EHR) data for various clinical purposes. This growing area of research has exposed the challenges of the accessibility of EHRs. MIMIC is a popular, public, and free EHR dataset in a raw format that has been used in numerous studies. The absence of standardized preprocessing steps can be, however, a significant barrier to the wider adoption of this rare resource. Additionally, this absence can reduce the reproducibility of the developed tools and limit the ability to compare the results among similar studies. In this work, we provide a greatly customizable pipeline to extract, clean, and preprocess the data available in the fourth version of the MIMIC dataset (MIMIC-IV). The p
