In the field of health care, one of the most important problems is predicting the possibility of hospital readmission due to its important role in caring for patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes. Such predictions affect the health care costs and the hospital's efficiency and reputation. In this paper, an intelligent-based model is developed to predict the reintroduction of the patient into the hospital. This model is based on using some Machine Learning (ML) algorithms such as Logistic Regression (LR), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Support Vector Machine (SVM). Also, it proposes the use of a Deep Learning (DL) based network such as a convolutional neural network (CNN). Both ML and DL are used as classifiers to predict hospital readmission. The main problem is the input noisy data to these classifiers. These noisy data reduce the accuracy of the readmission prediction model. Sequential pre-processing steps are proposed to get over such a problem. These pre-processing steps provide solutions to missing values, feature engineering, and normalization problems. The main contribution of this work is improving readmission prediction rate by solving the data normalization problem. Two types of data normalization (e.g. z-score and min-max normalization) are applied, results show there is a difference in accuracy, z-score normalization is better than min-max normalization when comparing ML methods and DL models, CNN is the best with an accuracy of 0.894% in case of z-score normalization. Moreover, the model performance is improved with an accuracy of 0.924% when non-normalized data is used as input to the model. The proposed Non-normalization technique successes in providing superior results compared to some previous techniques which are displayed data by using Ensemble, Normalization, and Ensemble by age group techniques.
Readmission to the hospital is an important and critical procedure for the quality of health care as it is very costly and helps in determining the quality level of the point of care provided by the hospital to the patient. This paper proposes a group model to predict readmission by choosing between Machine Learning and Deep Learning algorithms based on performance improvement. The algorithms used for Machine Learning are Logistic Regression, K-Nearest Neighbors, and Support Vector Machine, while the algorithms used for Deep Learning are a Convolutional Neural Network and Recurrent Neural Network. The reasons for the appearance of the efficiency of the model depend on the are preparation of correct parameters and the values that control the learning. This paper aims to enhance the performance of both machine learning and deep learning based readmission models using hyperparameter optimization in both Personal Computer environments and Mobile Cloud Computing systems. The proposed model is called improving detection diabetic using hyperparameter optimization , the proposed model aims to achieve the best rate of between prediction rate accuracy for hospital readmission at the same time minimizing resources such as time delay and energy consumption. Results achieved by proposed model for Logistic Regression, K-Nearest Neighbors, and Support Vector Machine are (accuracy=0.671, 0.883, 0.901, time delay=5, 7, 20, and energy consumed=25, 32, 48) respectively, for Recurrent Neural Network and Convolutional Neural Network are (accuracy=0.854, 0.963, time delay=25, 660 energy consumed=89, 895) respectively. However, this proposed model takes a lot of time and energy consumed especially in Convolutional Neural Network. So, the experiments were conducted again, but in the cloud environment, based on the existence of two types of storage to preserve the accuracy but decreasing time and energy, the proposed model in cloud environment achieve
Mobile cloud computing (MCC) is a new computing paradigm which tends to transfer the data storage and the data processing from a mobile device to a cloud server on the Internet. The cloud server may be a block sever or a file server. In MCC, due to the limited resources of a mobile device as processing power, battery power, and memory, the main challenge is how to map data items into a cloud server and select the best mapping server among block and file servers. In this paper, the difficulties in mapping data items are addressed and a new adaptive data mapping storage scheme is proposed. The proposed scheme can select a block or file mapping for mobile data items based on a defined cost model which takes into account the energy consumption and the total time delay for sending and retrieving of data to/from the cloud server. In addition, the proposed scheme can select the optimal number of blocks and files of data items that adaptively changes with their cost models. The simulated results show that the proposed algorithm achieves a better mapping performance with minimum cost compared to the mapping data items without any selection mechanism.
