New Approach based on Machine Learning for Short-Term Mortality Prediction in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

Mortality remains one of the most important outcomes to predict in Intensive Care Units (ICUs). In fact, the sooner mortality is predicted, the better critical decisions are made by doctors based on patient’s illness severity. In this paper, a new approach based on Machine Learning (ML) techniques for short-term mortality prediction in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is proposed. This approach relies on many steps. At first, relevant...
