  • Patent number: 11967433
    Abstract: A method and system for assessing the risk of a cardiac event in a patient which utilizes real-time and historical data from Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems is described. A risk of a cardiac event is estimated, in real-time or near-real-time, for a patient who is currently in a hospital emergency department. Batch data for one or more past patients is extracted from EMRs into a machine learning model. Using the machine learning model, a risk level for one or more past patients is calculated. A real-time database is constructed from streams of real-time Health Level 7 (HL7) clinical data, wherein at least one stream of real-time HL7 data is associated with the current patient, and a risk prediction is estimated by joining the calculated risk level for the patient in the machine learning model with the real-time HL7 clinical data from the patient.

  • Patent number: 11705247
    Abstract: In an approach to predictive contact tracing, a computer receives a query associated with contact tracing of a person with an infection. A computer retrieves timestamped location data associated with the person over a period of time. Based on the retrieved data, a computer creates a contact graph associated with the person, where the contact graph depicts one or more other people that were in contact with the person over the period of time. A computer retrieves medical data associated with the person and the one or more other people that were in contact with the person over the period of time. Based on the retrieved data, a computer builds a probabilistic model. A computer runs the probabilistic model to provide a prediction of a probability of infection of the one or more other people over the period of time as a result of being in contact with the person.

  • Patent number: 11551308
    Abstract: Methods, non-transitory machine readable media, and network stack analysis devices that generate optimized preferred provider organization (PPO) network stacks are disclosed. With this technology, electronic transactions are applied to each of a first plurality of network stacks to determine a cost reduction value for each of the first network stacks. Each of the first network stacks includes an ordered subset of networks. The first network stacks are resampled based on the determined cost reduction values. A determination is made when one or more convergence criteria are met by the resampled first network stacks. When the determination indicates that the convergence criteria are not met by the resampled first network stacks, one or more of the first network stacks are modified based on genetic crossover or mutation operation(s) to generate a second plurality of network stacks. The application, resampling, and determination are then repeated for the second network stacks.

  • Patent number: 11508465
    Abstract: Systems and methods for data unfolding are disclosed. For example, it may be desirable or necessary to increase a data set, such as for increasing accuracy of one or more predictive models. Data set proliferation without introducing unnecessary bias may be important for increasing such accuracy. Described herein are system and methods that allow for data set proliferation by generating records based on whether an event occurred with respect to an entity during multiple time intervals. A record may be generated for each time interval and the associated data may be unfolded and disassociated, at least partly, from other records related to the entity. Those records may then be used for data analytics and/or predictive model generation, for example.
