Abstract: Length of hospital stay (LoS) prediction is one of the most important goals in Health Informatics, due to the fact that through this it is possible to optimize the management of health structure resources. In Italian local healthcare systems we are experimenting an health cost containment process and the minimization of care costs is considered an important objective to be achieved. For this reason we have tested several datamining models trained with hospital discharge data, capable to make accurate LoS predictions. In another work we have reached encouraging results by the use of unsupervised models which detect autonomously the subset of non-class attributes to be considered in these classification tasks. Here we are interested in studying also another intelligent data analysis model, the Turing unorganised A-type machine, that is capable to represent the acquired knowledge in a logic formalism. In other terms this solution can explain its predictions by the use of a set of self- acquired knowledge base rules. (More)
