Bayesian algorithms examine past patient data to detect intricate patterns in admission dynamics, including demographic, clinical, and temporal factors. Through the use of Bayesian principles, prediction models are able to estimate the probability of certain patient demographics occurring at certain intervals, therefore assisting in the allocation of resources and the management of operations. Probabilities that have been estimated are used to make choices on staffing, resource allocation, and operational strategy. The variation in probability estimates across different observations improves the predictive usefulness, hence strengthening the effectiveness in healthcare management and planning.","PeriodicalId":36298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Reliable and Quality E-Healthcare","volume":" 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141828801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Machine learning models constitute a new approach, used increasingly in this field. In this proposed work, the authors built a classification model named CovStacknet based on StackNet metamodeling methodology combined with the deep convolutional neural network as the basis for feature extraction from x-ray images. Firstly, the proposed model used VGG16 as a transfer learning of deep convolutional neural networks and achieved an accuracy score of 98%. Secondly, the proposed model is extended to evaluate four other deep convolutional neural networks, ResNet-50, Inception-V3, MobileNet-V2 and DenseNet, and ResNet-50, has achieved the best performance.","PeriodicalId":36298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Reliable and Quality E-Healthcare","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44880490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Being transparent, immutable, and decentralized in nature, blockchain mechanism is found to be a better technology which can reduce the corruption in the experimental scenario. The objective is to develop a decentralized system which can be used for the verification of the employees in an organization.

Traditional models, which were used in the past, were unable to reliably estimate death rates due to procedural flaws. The genetic algorithm in association with an artificial neural network (GA-ANN) is one of the suitable blended AI strategies that can foretell more correctly by resolving this difficult COVID-19 phenomena. The genetic algorithm is used to simultaneously optimise all of the ANN parameters. In this work, GA-ANN and ANN models were performed by applying historical daily data from sick, recovered, and dead people in India. The performance of the designed hybrid GA-ANN model is validated by comparing it to the standard ANN and MLR approach. It was determined that the GA-ANN model outperformed the ANN model. When compared to previous examined models for predicting mortality rates in India, the hypothesized hybrid GA-ANN model is the most competent. This hybrid AI (GA-ANN) model is suggested for the prediction due to reasonably better performance and ease of implementation.","PeriodicalId":36298,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Reliable and Quality E-Healthcare","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46149896","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At this point, fog computing emerged as the best alternative to provide such real-time services to delay-sensitive IoT applications. However, with the surge of patients, fog's limited resources may fail to handle the explosive growth in requests requiring advanced monitoring-based prioritization of tasks to meet the QoS requirements. To this end, in this paper, a level monitoring task scheduling (LMTS) algorithm is proposed for healthcare applications in fog to provide an immediate response to the delay-sensitive tasks with minimum delay and network usage.

Researchers around the world are looking for alternative machine learning techniques including deep learning to assist the medical experts for early COVID-19 disease diagnosis from medical imaging such as chest films. This study proposes an enhanced convolutional neural network (EConvNet) model for the presence and absence of coronavirus disease from chest radiographs to contain this pandemic. The model is accurate compared to the traditional machine learning algorithms (RF, SVM, etc.). The suggested CNN model is approximately as accurate as the classifiers based on transfer learning (such as InceptionV3, VGG16, and Densenet121).
