Severity measurements using neural networks

Abstract

The authors introduce a novel patient severity measurement model using neural networks. A three layer, fully connected backpropagation neural network was used in the pilot experiment. The results are promising and demonstrate that the backpropagation neural network technique is capable of assessing the severity value by learning from raw data. The neural network is easy to improve and of relatively low cost. It saves the expert's valuable time used in assigning numerical values to variables.>
