An integrated deep learning and stochastic optimization approach for resource management in team-based healthcare systems

作者:

Highlights:

• Predicts the imposed workload of patients to providers using supervised and unsupervised methods.

• Generates robust features by using deep learning stacked auto-encoders.

• Proposes a deep multi-task learning approach to improve prediction performance.

• Uses a two-stage stochastic resource allocation and workload optimization model.

• Generates scenarios based on uncertain demand and simulation.
