The effect of batched patient–physician assignment on patient length of stay in the emergency department

Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open, 2022
Objectives Queuing theory suggests that signing up for multiple patients at once (batching) can negatively affect patients’ length of stay (LOS). At academic centers, resident assignment adds a second layer to this effect.

To Batch or Not to Batch? Comparing Batching and Curriculum Learning Strategies across Tasks and Datasets

Mathematics, 2021
Many natural language processing architectures are greatly affected by seemingly small design decisions, such as batching and curriculum learning (how the training data are ordered during training).

A Three-Stage ACO-Based Algorithm for Parallel Batch Loading and Scheduling Problem with Batch Deterioration and Rate-Modifying Activities

Mathematics, 2022
This paper addresses a batch loading and scheduling problem of minimizing the makespan on parallel batch processing machines. For batch loading, jobs with compatible families can be assigned to the same batch process even if they differ in size; however,
