A Predictive Model for Risk Management of the Hospitalised Patient as a Clinical Decision Support System

Assessing patient risk or degree of vulnerability is crucial for effective nursing care, resource allocation and prevention of complications and adverse events. A scale-based system evaluates hospitalised patients, capturing their status across domains by aggregating and weighting scale scores. Currently, in most hospitals, nurses manually interpret these scores and record the data. Even in high-tech hospitals with electronic health records (EHRs) the interpretation of results still depends on manual analysis, leading to subjectivity and errors. The aim of this project is to develop a predictive system that is seamlessly integrated into the EHR as a decision support tool. The system will categorise patients based on their need for resource allocation, which is interpreted as risk. Real data from 1800 patients were analysed and showed 86% of accuracy in predicting risk using a decision tree algorithm.

A Multi-agent Approach for Composing Negotiation Items in a Reverse Logistic Virtual Market

  • Adriana Giret

Abstract In this work a reverse production process is conceived as a service-based manufacturing network (ecosystem), in which the manufacturing companies “play” in the ecosystem by means of market services. One complex problem in a reverse logistic virtual market is the efficient composition and decomposition of the negotiation items. A negotiation item is defined as an item subject to be recycled: used products/scraps/wastes, a sub-part of a used product/scrap/waste, or the materials that are contained in the used product/scrap/waste. In this work we present a Multi-agent approach in order to compose the last two types of negotiation items from an orchestration of negotiation processes among the different stakeholders of the reverse logistic process (i. e. collecting points, recycling plants, disassembly plants, secondary material markets). In this way a call for buying, for example 10 tons of steel, can be handle in the virtual market as a complex process of buying and selling used products/scraps/wastes, or their sub-parts, in order to decompose and pre-process them (by recycling and/or disassembly plants) for extracting the steel contained in those items.

Challenges on Normative Emotional Agents

  • Karen Y. Lliguin
  • Vicente J. Botti
  • Estefania Argente

Abstract Most people’s choices, including economic ones, are largely based on normative-affective considerations, not only with regard to the selection of goals but also of means. However, although emotions are inherent in human behaviour, and they are also relevant when dealing with the decision making processes, the relationship between norms and emotions has hardly been considered in the agent field, and most normative multi-agent systems do not take emotions into account, as a variable for their computation. In this paper, we analyse the advantages of including emotions in a normative system, how emotions and norms affect to each other and the work done in this field so far. To do this, we (1) identify and describe the relationships between emotions and norms; (2) review the state of art of normative emotional agents; and (3) discuss future directions for research in this field.

Analysing Incentive Strategies to Promote Participation in Crowdsourcing Systems

  • Elena del Val
  • Guillem Martínez-Cánovas
  • Vicente J. Botti
  • Penélope Hernández

Abstract In this paper, we define two strategies for crowdsourcing systems to encourage users to participate at a cost that is close to the optimal cost for the system. In the scenario considered, the system has temporal constraints and potential participants have dynamic behaviors related to the expected rewards (i. e. , users’ expected rewards in exchange of their contributions change over time). We propose and evaluate two types of strategies that promote participation of users through monetary rewards that can change as time passes in order to adapt them to the population dynamic behaviors.

CBR-TM: A New Case-Based Reasoning System for Help-Desk Environments

  • Juan Ángel García-Pardo
  • Stella Heras
  • Rafael Ramos-Garijo
  • Alberto Palomares
  • Vicente Julián
  • Miguel Rebollo
  • Vicente J. Botti

In this paper, a new CBR system for help-desk environments is presented. This CBR system provides intelligent customer support for multiple domains. It is also portable and flexible. The system is implemented as a module of a complete help-desk application to make it as independent as possible of any change in the help-desk system. Each phase of the reasoning cycle is also separated as an independent module, making the CBR system easy to update. The system has been tested in a real call center managed by the Spanish company TISSAT S. A.
