A GIS-Based Demand Forecast Using Machine Learning for Emergency Medical Services

Abstract: The objective for pre-hospital Emergency Medical Service (EMS) is to reach to, pick up, and deliver patients efficiently. By increasing the operational efficiency, the survival rate of major trauma patients could potentially be improved. In this research, the authors applied Moving Average, Artificial Neural Network, Linear Regression, and Support Vector Machine for the forecast of pre-hospital emergency medical demand. The results from these approaches, as a reference, could be used for pre-allocation of ambu… Show more

“…The potential capability of deep learning to enhance EMCI classification through the provision of decision support to non-clinical dispatchers, was spotted by the Health Services Department of the Valencian region, aware of the potential of these models: deep learning is at the state of the art of machine learning in tasks involving complex types of data, [23] e.g., high dimensional, unstructured, sequential, multimodal, [24][25][26][27] such as those found in EMCI databases. Likewise, this and other machine learning tools have already been applied to tackle EMD challenges such as ambulance allocation, [28][29][30]…”

[36] Therefore, we can argue that deep learning models are a feasible and promising technology to improve EMD through EMCI classification.…”

“…The weight of each Gaussian component is modulated by the phase of a prediction time within the weekly cycle. Multiple studies have implemented Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) for callout prediction, most notably in Taipei [6,21] and Mecklenberg County, North Carolina [32]. While the studies for Taipei show promising accuracy at coarse test resolution, they struggle due to sparsity at the scale of resolution required here.…”
