Abstract
This perspective article explores how process mining can extract clinical insights from mobile health data and complement data-driven techniques like machine learning. Despite technological advances, challenges such as selection bias and the complex dynamics of health data require advanced approaches. Process mining focuses on analyzing temporal process patterns and provides complementary insights into health condition variability. The article highlights the potential of process mining for analyzing mHealth data and beyond.
期刊介绍:
npj Digital Medicine is an online open-access journal that focuses on publishing peer-reviewed research in the field of digital medicine. The journal covers various aspects of digital medicine, including the application and implementation of digital and mobile technologies in clinical settings, virtual healthcare, and the use of artificial intelligence and informatics.
The primary goal of the journal is to support innovation and the advancement of healthcare through the integration of new digital and mobile technologies. When determining if a manuscript is suitable for publication, the journal considers four important criteria: novelty, clinical relevance, scientific rigor, and digital innovation.
