Weaning outcome prediction from heterogeneous time series using Normalized Compression Distance and Multidimensional Scaling
In the Intensive Care Unit of a hospital (ICU), weaning can be defined as the process of gradual reduction in the level of mechanical ventilation support. A failed weaning increases the risk of death in prolonged mechanical ventilation patients. Different methods for weaning outcome prediction have been proposed using variables and time series extracted from the monitoring systems, however, mon...
متن کاملNormalized Compression Distance of Multiples
Normalized compression distance (NCD) is a parameter-free similarity measure based on compression. The NCD between pairs of objects is not sufficient for all applications. We propose an NCD of finite multisets (multiples) of objacts that is metric and is better for many applications. Previously, attempts to obtain such an NCD failed. We use the theoretical notion of Kolmogorov complexity that f...
متن کاملUnderstanding vasopressor intervention and weaning: risk prediction in a public heterogeneous clinical time series database
Background The widespread adoption of electronic health records allows us to ask evidence-based questions about the need for and benefits of specific clinical interventions in critical-care settings across large populations. Objective We investigated the prediction of vasopressor administration and weaning in the intensive care unit. Vasopressors are commonly used to control hypotension, and ...
متن کاملThe normalized compression distance and image distinguishability
We use an information-theoretic distortion measure called the Normalized Compression Distance (NCD), first proposed by M. Li et al., to determine whether two rectangular gray-scale images are visually distinguishable to a human observer. Image distinguishability is a fundamental constraint on operations carried out by all players in an image watermarking system. The NCD between two binary strin...
متن کاملVariable Scaling for Time Series Prediction
In this paper, variable selection and variable scaling are used in order to select the best regressor for the problem of time series prediction. Direct prediction methodology is used instead of the classic recursive methodology. Least Squares Support Vector Machines (LS-SVM) are used in order to avoid local minimal in the training phase of the model. The global methodology is applied to the tim...
