Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To construct length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay (LOS-ICU) prediction models for ICU patients, based on three machine learning models support vector machine (SVM), classification and regression tree (CART), and random forest (RF), and to compare the prediction perfor-mance of the three machine learning models with the customized simplified acute physiology score Ⅱ(SAPS-Ⅱ) model.
