Fitting a stochastic model of intensive care occupancy to noisy hospitalization time series during the COVID-19 pandemic
新冠疫情期间利用含噪住院时间序列拟合 ICU 占床随机模型
Intensive care occupancy is an important indicator of health care stress that has been used to guide policy decisions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Toward reliable decision-making as a pandemic progresses, estimating the rates at which patients are admitted to and discharged from hospitals and intensive care units (ICUs) is crucial. Since individual-level hospital data are rarely available to modelers in each geographic locality of interest, it is important to develop tools…
