Improving the Performance of Models Trained on Small EHR-Derived Samples by Leveraging External Data with Continual Learning Methods

The performance of an EHR-based deep learning model trained on a small sample can be improved if more data is collected. Instead of collecting more data, the model can be trained on additional data from an analogous external source. However, this risks the model learning patterns in the external data that do not genera...
