Predicting Postoperative Nausea And Vomiting Using Machine Learning: A Model Development and Validation Study [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a frequently observed complication in patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia. Moreover, it is a frequent cause of distress and dissatisfaction during the early postoperative period. The tools used for predicting PONV at present have not yielded satisfactory results.

Self-explaining Hierarchical Model for Intraoperative Time Series [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Major postoperative complications are devastating to surgical patients. Some of these complications are potentially preventable via early predictions based on intraoperative data. However, intraoperative data comprise long and fine-grained multivariate time series, prohibiting the effective learning of accurate models.

First Investigation Into the Use of Deep Learning for Continuous Assessment of Neonatal Postoperative Pain [PDF]
, 2020 This paper presents the first investigation into the use of fully automated deep learning framework for assessing neonatal postoperative pain. It specifically investigates the use of Bilinear Convolutional Neural Network (B-CNN) to extract facial features during different levels of postoperative pain followed by modeling the temporal pattern using ...
