 \nAbstract: Many life-threatening adverse events such as sepsis and cardia
 c arrest are treatable if detected early. Towards this\, one can leverage 
 the vast number of longitudinal signals---e.g.\, repeated heart rate\, res
 piratory rate\, blood cell counts\, creatinine measurements---that are alr
 eady recorded by clinicians to track an individual's health. Motivated by 
 this problem\, we propose a reliable event prediction framework comprising
  two key innovations. First\, we extend existing state-of-the-art in joint
 -modeling to tackle settings with large-scale\, (potentially) correlated\,
  high-dimensional multivariate longitudinal data. For this\, we propose a 
 flexible Bayesian nonparametric joint model along with scalable stochastic
  variational inference techniques for estimation. Second\, we use a decisi
 on-theoretic approach to derive an optimal detector that trades-off the co
 st of delaying correct adverse-event detections against making incorrect a
 ssessments. On a challenging clinical dataset on patients admitted to an I
 ntensive Care Unit\, we see significant gains in early event-detection per
 formance over state-of-the-art techniques. \n\nSEE PDF FOR MORE DETAILS\n
