Our work focuses on the problem of predicting the transfer of pediatric patients from the general ward of a hospital to the pediatric intensive care unit. Using data collected over 5.5 years from the electronic health records of two medical facilities, we develop classifiers based on adaptive boosting and gradient tree…

problem Training machine learning models on privacy-sensitive data sets locked in healthcare facilities.
method Extensive evaluation of federated and differential privacy techniques on MIMIC-III dataset, analyzing various parameters.
result Careful parameter tuning is crucial for federated learning with differential privacy, especially for data distribution and communication strategies.
Study examines how industrial emissions evolve over time in response to various factors.
problem Understanding how firm-level emissions change over time in response to environmental regulation, economic conditions, and organizational constraints.
method Used a time-varying mean-group estimator to link emissions data with firm characteristics and macroeconomic indicators over 1992-2023.
result Firm-level characteristics and aggregate conditions have different impacts on emissions growth at different times.
SimTensor is a multi-platform, open-source software for generating artificial tensor data (either with CP/PARAFAC or Tucker structure) for reproducible research on tensor factorization algorithms. SimTensor is a stand-alone application based on MATALB. It provides a wide range of facilities for generating tensor data w…
Based on the concept of self-decomposable random variables we discuss the application of a model for a pair of dependent Poisson processes to energy facilities. Due to the resulting structure of the jump events we can see the self-decomposability as a form of cointegration among jumps. In the context of energy faciliti…
A method for quickly determining deployment schedules that meet a given fuel cycle demand is presented here. This algorithm is fast enough to perform in situ within low-fidelity fuel cycle simulators. It uses Gaussian process regression models to predict the production curve as a function of time and the number of depl…
A statistical description and model of individual healthcare expenditures in the US has been developed for measuring value in healthcare. We find evidence that healthcare expenditures are quantifiable as an infusion-diffusion process, which can be thought of intuitively as a steady change in the intensity of treatment …
This Ph.D. thesis deals with the optimization of several renewable energy resources development as well as the improvement of facilities management in oceanic engineering and airports, using computational hybrid methods belonging to AI to this end. Energy is essential to our society in order to ensure a good quality of…
We study data-driven assistants that provide congestion forecasts to users of shared facilities (roads, cafeterias, etc.), to support coordination between them, and increase efficiency of such collective systems. Key questions are: (1) when and how much can (accurate) predictions help for coordination, and (2) which as…
The paper optimizes daily storage trading of electricity using dynamic spread densities.
problem Optimizing daily storage trading of electricity based on price spreads.
method Formulated dynamic density functions based on skewed-t representations to model hourly electricity price spreads. Selected the best specification for each spread using the Pinball Loss function and calculated risk associated with spread arbitrages.
result Optimal daily operation of a battery storage facility determined from spread densities.
One of the main issues affecting the Italian NHS is the healthcare deficit: according to current agreements between the Italian State and its Regions, public funding of regional NHS is now limited to the amount of regional deficit and is subject to previous assessment of strict adherence to constraint on regional healt…
The paper tackles Nash-regret minimization in congestion games with bandit feedback.
problem Minimizing Nash-regret in congestion games with bandit feedback.
method Proposes centralized and decentralized algorithms for congestion games with bandit feedback, and a centralized algorithm for Markov congestion games.
result Sample complexity depends polynomially on the number of players and facilities, not the size of the action set.
Unified framework for imputation and prediction in healthcare time series.
problem Time misalignment and data sparsity in healthcare time series.
method MAGIC (Multi-tAsk Gaussian Process for Imputation and Classification) using hierarchical multi-task Gaussian process and functional logistic regression.
result Superior predictive accuracy compared to existing methods in two healthcare applications.
Research predicts healthcare index movements using historical OHLC data.
problem Predicting the directional movement of healthcare indices based on historical data.
method Supervised classification task with a one-step-ahead rolling window, using a diverse feature set including OHLC ratios.
result Robust predictive performance with accuracy exceeding 0.8 and Matthews correlation coefficients above 0.6, highlighting the importance of nowcasting features.
