# Configuration File Instructions |
|
|
|
Below are the instructions to create a valid configuration file. |
|
|
|
## Configuration File Structure |
|
|
|
The configuration file should be in YAML format (.config file) and follow the structure outlined below for **ICU Data**: |
|
|
|
```yaml |
|
disease_label: <disease_label> mandatory only if the prediction task is Phenotype |
|
timePrediction: <timePrediction> |
|
timeWindow: <timeWindow> |
|
timebucket: <timebucket> |
|
radimp: <radimp> |
|
predW: <predW> |
|
diagnosis: <diagnosis> |
|
output: <output> |
|
chart: <chart> |
|
proc: <proc> |
|
meds: <meds> |
|
disease_filter: <disease_filter> |
|
icu_no_icu: <icu_no_icu> |
|
groupingDiag: <groupingDiag> |
|
select_diag: <select_diag> |
|
select_med: <select_med> |
|
select_proc: <select_proc> |
|
select_out: <select_out> |
|
select_chart: <select_chart> |
|
outlier_removal: <outlier_removal> |
|
outlier: <outlier> |
|
left_outlier: <left_outlier> |
|
``` |
|
|
|
The configuration file should be in YAML format (.config file) and follow the structure outlined below for **Non-ICU Data**: |
|
|
|
```yaml |
|
disease_label: <disease_label> mandatory only if the prediction task is Phenotype |
|
timePrediction: <timePrediction> |
|
timeWindow: <timeWindow> |
|
timebucket: <timebucket> |
|
radimp: <radimp> |
|
predW: <predW> |
|
diagnosis: <diagnosis> |
|
lab: <lab> |
|
proc: <proc> |
|
meds: <meds> |
|
disease_filter: <disease_filter> |
|
icu_no_icu: <icu_no_icu> |
|
groupingDiag: <groupingDiag> |
|
groupingProc: <groupingProc> |
|
groupingMed: <groupingMed> |
|
select_diag: <select_diag> |
|
select_med: <select_med> |
|
select_proc: <select_proc> |
|
select_lab: <select_lab> |
|
outlier_removal: <outlier_removal> |
|
outlier: <outlier> |
|
left_outlier: <left_outlier> |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Replace the `<variable>` placeholders with the corresponding values specific to your use case. Detailed explanations of each variable and their valid values are provided in the next section. |
