Hospitals in Paris are trialling Big Data and machine learning systems designed to forecast admission rates – leading to more efficient deployment of resources and better patient outcomes. It's just one more way in which cutting-edge data science is being applied to real-world problems in healthcare, along with creating personalized medicines, fighting cancer and streamlining pharmaceutical trials. At four of the hospitals which make up the Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP), data from internal and external sources – including 10 years' worth of hospital admissions records has been crunched to come up with day and hour-level predictions of the number of patients expected through the doors. The core of the analytics work involves using time series analysis techniques – looking for ways in which patterns in the data can be used to predict the admission rates at different times. Machine learning is employed to determine which algorithms provide the best indicator of future trends, when they are fed data from the past.

Hospitals in Paris are trialling Big Data and machine learning systems designed to forecast admission rates – leading to more efficient deployment of resources and better patient outcomes. The result was the first contribution to an open source framework of code designed to carry out the analysis over a scalable, distributed framework. Machine learning is employed to determine which algorithms provide the best indicator of future trends, when they are fed data from the past. The core of the analytics work involves using time series analysis techniques – looking for ways in which patterns in the data can be used to predict the admission rates at different times. This code is already being put to use in several other projects involving healthcare and finance.
