Semi-Supervised KPCA-Based Monitoring Techniques for Detecting COVID-19 Infection through Blood Tests.

This study introduces a new method for identifying COVID-19 infections using blood test data as part of an anomaly detection problem by combining the kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) and one-class support vector machine (OCSVM). This approach aims to differentiate healthy individuals from those infected with COVID-19 using blood test samples. The KPCA model is used to identify nonlinear patterns in the data, and the OCSVM is used to detect abnormal features.

Towards accurate prediction of patient length of stay at emergency department: a GAN-driven deep learning framework.

Recently, the hospital systems face a high influx of patients generated by several events, such as seasonal flows or health crises related to epidemics (e.g., COVID'19).

Monitoring patient flow in a hospital emergency department: ARMA-based nonparametric GLRT scheme.

Overcrowding in emergency departments (EDs) is a primary concern for hospital administration. They aim to efficiently manage patient demands and reducing stress in the ED. Detection of abnormal ED demands (patient flows) in hospital systems aids ED managers to obtain appropriate decisions by optimally allocating the available resources following patient attendance.

Forecasting emergency department overcrowding: A deep learning framework.

As the demand for medical cares has considerably expanded, the issue of managing patient flow in hospitals and especially in emergency departments (EDs) is certainly a key issue to be carefully mitigated. This can lead to overcrowding and the degradation of the quality of the provided medical services. Thus, the accurate modeling and forecasting of ED visits are critical for efficiently managing the overcrowding problems and enable appropriate optimization of the available resources.
