A recent analysis of the home hospitalization and early discharge (HH/ED) program at Hospital Clínic de Barcelona over a 10-year period demonstrated high levels of acceptance by patients and professionals, as well as health value-based generation at the provider and health-system levels. However, health risk assessment was identified as an unmet need with the potential to enhance clinical decision making. Objective: The objective of this study is to generate and assess predictive models of mortality and in-hospital admission at entry and at HH/ED discharge. Methods: Predictive modeling of mortality and in-hospital admission was done in 2 different scenarios: at entry into the HH/ED program and at discharge, from January 2009 to December 2015. -
Ethical Considerations Concerning Predictive Analytics, AI, Machine Learning, and Consumer Data
Ethical considerations concerning predictive analytics, AI, machine learning, and consumer data Presented at the 2019 RESO Fall Conference by: David Gumpper, Head of Technology Consulting at WAV Group & Founder/CEO at Gumpper Group, LLC and Eric Bryn, Broker at Baird & Warner And here's the latest from the WSJ...a Chinese insurance firm using facial recognition tech to help determine insurance rates...could this happen in the U.S.? Would we even know? What if this happened in the U.S.? It's really no different than interrogation techniques and insights that are taught by the FBI to local and state and federal investigators? It's just simple neurolinguistic analysis...what's the problem with this? Interesting thoughts to ponder as we explore the outer edges of this issue... What does your face reveal about how big of a financial risk you are? One of the world’s largest insurers thinks the answer is quite a bit. It is using facial-recognition technology on potential customers as part of its efforts to assess risk when it sells them financial products Ping An Insurance Group Co., China’s largest insurer and one of the country’s largest financial conglomerates, routinely scans the faces of customers and its own agents to verify their identities or examine their expressions for clues about their truthfulness. Since 2016, the company has used its proprietary technology to screen individuals applying for loans at its consumer-finance arm. “Micro expressions,” or brief, small and often involuntary movements on people’s faces, are one area of focus the company has been analyzing. -

PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS IN FORECASTING A Senior Project submitted to the Faculty of California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering by Matthew Suarez March 2017 PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS IN FORECASTING Matthew Suarez ______________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT ______________________________________________________________________ Predicting future demand can be of tremendous help to businesses in scheduling and allocating appropriate amounts of material and labor. The more accurate these predictions are, the more the business will save money by matching supply with demand as closely as possible. The approach for an accurate forecast, and the goal of this project, involves using data analytics techniques on past historical sales data. Working with Campus Dining, a year's worth of their daily sales data will be analyzed and ultimately used for the end result of both an accurate forecasting technique and a way to display the results in a user friendly manner. The feasibility and effectiveness of doing so will be determined at the end of this project. 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Special acknowledgments to all of my teachers of whom have helped me, guided me, and aspired me to reach higher And to my family for their boundless love and support 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------5 I.

Nine Common Types of Data Mining Techniques Used in Predictive Analytics
1 Nine Common Types of Data Mining Techniques Used in Predictive Analytics By Laura Patterson, President, VisionEdge Marketing Predictive analytics enable you to develop mathematical models to help better understand the variables driving success. Predictive analytics relies on formulas that compare past examples of success and failure, and then use these formulas to predict future outcomes. Predictive analytics, pattern recognition and classification problems are not new. Long used in the financial services and insurance industries, predictive analytics is about using statistics, data mining and game theory to analyze current and historical facts in order to make predictions about future events. The value of predictive analytics is relatively obvious. The more you understand customer behavior and motivations the more effective your marketing. The more you know why some customers are loyal, how to attract and retain different customer segments, the more you can develop relevant compelling messages and offers. Predicting customer buying and product preferences and habits requires an analytical framework that enables you to discover meaningful patterns and relationships within customer data in order to do better message targeting, drive customer value and loyalty. Predictive models have been used in business to assess the risk or potential associated with a particular set of conditions as a way to guide decision making. Predictive models analyze past performance to assess how likely a customer is to exhibit a specific behavior in the future in order to improve marketing effectiveness. Marketing and sales professionals are beginning to capture and analyze many different types of customer data: attitudinal, behavioral, and 2 transactional related to purchasing and product preferences in order to make predictions about future buying behavior. -

Predictive Analytics for Cashflow Forecasting
Predictive analytics for cashflow forecasting F inance and Treasury Management Switzerland Computer-assisted forecasting methods help corporate treasuries with the company-wide liquidity planning Companies can survive for a long time without profits, but in the worst case, they can become insolvent within a few days if the necessary liquidity reserves are not ensured. Many a company has found itself in a liquidity crunch following the concurrence of certain events. One such event is currently the Coronavirus crisis that brings countless companies to the brink of their liquidity limits. But regardless of the Corona crisis, recent surveys among treasurers revealed that liquidity planning was and still is at the top of every Treasury’s agenda. To keep liquidity at the forefront helps to ensure that liquidity fluctuations are adequately hedged and that general liquidity shortages can be overcome safely and cost-effectively. Basically, there are several approaches (direct and indirect method) and planning methods to do this. The choice of planning method depends on many company-specific parameters such as business model, business management, complexity and availability of data and systems. An overview of state-of-the-art methods and their requirements as well as a definition of planning approaches may be found in our February newsletter. In the following we focus on the so-called predictive analytics in cash forecasting (PA-CF), one of the direct approaches in the liquidity planning. Predictive Analytics is a sub-discipline of data mining; it uses historical data to predict future events, for instance in Controlling, Sales, Treasury/Finance but also with regard to insurances, mobility and marketing. -

In the same spirit J.P.Benzécri and many others developed multivariate descriptive analysis tools. Since that time, many generalizations occurred, but the basic methods (SVD, k-means, …) are still incredibly efficient in the Big Data era.
