Process Mining in Healthcare: Data Challenges When Answering Frequently Posed Questions
نویسندگان
چکیده
In hospitals, huge amounts of data are recorded concerning the diagnosis and treatments of patients. Process mining can exploit such data and provide an accurate view on healthcare processes and show how they are really executed. In this paper, we describe the different types of event data found in current Hospital Information Systems (HISs). Based on this classification of available data, open problems and challenges are discussed that need to be solved in order to increase the uptake of process mining in healthcare.

متن کاملIntegrating Data Mining and Exploratory Statistical Graphics
Given clean, correctly transformed variables, Data Mining techniques are good at answering specific questions; they are not as useful when data is poorly understood or when questions are not clearly posed. The models and results can also be hard to interpret. In contrast, statistical graphics are good for examining messy data, for qualitatively evaluating the data and detecting large effects. T...
