A deep learning model using ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes with a permutation-invariant Deep Sets aggregator improved 30-day unplanned readmission (AUC 0.7496 vs 0.6553 for CCI) and 30-day postdischarge in-hospital mortality (AUC 0.8557 vs 0.7844 for age-adjusted CCI) compared with Charlson and Elixhauser comorbidity-index benchmarks in a national claims database of over 113 million adult hospitalizations.

We systematically decompose the sources of SIMD speedup for ML-KEM (Kyber) on Intel x86-64 AVX2. By benchmarking four compilation variants, we demonstrate that GCC’s auto-vectorizer provides negligible benefit, and that hand-written AVX2 assembly delivers a – performance increase for core arithmetic operations. This drives an end-to-end KEM speedup of –.
