Patterns of Emergency Care Utilization by Chronically Ill
Content Type: Abstract
The nature of Emergency Room services makes the patients' visits hard to predict and control and the services incur high costs. Chronic patients should not require urgent care to treat their chronic illness, if they were properly managed in… read more… The nature of Emergency Room services makes the patients' visits hard to predict and control and the services incur … high costs.

Mining Intensive Care Vitals for Leading Indicators of Adverse Health Events
Content Type: Abstract
The status of each Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patient is routinely monitored and a number of vital signs are recorded at sub-second frequencies which results in large amounts of data. We propose an approach to transform this stream of raw vital… read more… The status of each Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patient is routinely monitored and a number … Mining intensive care vitals for leading indicators of adverse health events … of impending critical health events in intensive care unit (ICU) patients and (2) Identify utility of these … -
Real-time Adaptive Monitoring of Vital Signs for Clinical Alarm Preemption
Content Type: Abstract
Cardiovascular event prediction has long been of interest in the practice of intensive care. It has been approached using signal-processing of vital signs [1-4], including the use of graphical models [3,4]. Our approach is novel in making data… read more… has long been of interest in the practice of intensive care.

T-Cube as an Enabling Technology in Surveillance Applications
Content Type: Abstract
T-Cube is especially useful for rapidly retrieving responses to ad-hoc queries against large datasets of additive time series labeled using a set of categorical attributes. It can be used as a general tool to support any task… read more… of over-the-counter medications and emergency department visits. In this paper we present efficiencies which can be … of over-the-counter medications and emergency department visits [1,2].

Rapid Processing of Ad-Hoc Queries against Large Sets of Time Series
Content Type: Abstract
Time series analysis is very common in syndromic surveillance. Large scale biosurveillance systems typically perform thousands of time series queries per day: for example, monitoring of nationwide over-thecounter (OTC) sales data may require… read more… queries approximately 1,000 times faster than stan- dard state-of-the-art data cube technologies. This speedup …
