Preparing for Disease X: Predicting ICU Admissions Using Time Series Forecasting with Decoder-Only Transformer Neural Networks
Nejc Čelik,
Andrej Škraba
Abstract:The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the critical importance of predictive modelling in managing healthcare resources and shaping public health policies. This paper explores the application of advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques, specifically decoder-only transformer neural networks (DOTNN), in forecasting weekly Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admissions. Our research is driven by the necessity to enhance preparedness for potential future pandemics, referred to as "Disease X", by leveraging large data… Show more
