Personalized predictions of patient outcomes during and after hospitalization using artificial intelligence

Abstract Hospital systems, payers, and regulators have focused on reducing length of stay (LOS) and early readmission, with uncertain benefit. Interpretable machine learning (ML) may assist in transparently identifying the risk of important outcomes. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of hosp...
