This study aims to investigate the prediction of hospital readmission of alcohol use disorder patients within 28 days of discharge and compare the performance of six machine learning methods i.e., random forest (RF), logistics regression, linear supp...
Heart failure is a clinical syndrome that occurs when the heart is too weak or stiff and cannot pump enough blood that our body needs. It is one of the most expensive diseases due to frequent hospitalizations and emergency room visits. Reducing unnec...
