On local anomaly detection and analysis for clinical pathways

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose a method to discover anomalies in clinical pathways.

• Both global and local anomalies are detected from clinical event logs.

• Diagnostic information about anomalies are provided for root cause analysis.

• Evaluation is done using a real clinical dataset from a Chinese hospital.
