Medical Treatment Process Modeling Based on Process Mining and Treatment Patterns

activities.Ex-periments on a synthetic log of the non-secondary hy-pertension MTP and empirical findings demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.The results show that the process mining in our approach framework can automatically generate more accurate MTP mod-els,and the subprocess models based on treatment pat-terns make the models easy to understand.

On Treatment Patterns for Modeling Medical Treatment Processes in Clinical Practice Guidelines

Clinical practice guidelines(CPGs)contain evidence-based and economically reasonable medical treatment processes.Executable medical treatment processes in healthcare information systems can assist the treatment processes.To this end,business process modeling technologies have been exploited to model medical treatment processes.However,medical treatment processes are usually flexible and knowledge-intensive.To reduce the effort in modeling,we summarize several treatment patterns(i.e.,frequent behaviors in medical treatment processes in CPGs),and represent them by three process modeling languages(i.e.,BPMN,DMN,and CMMN).Based on the summarized treatment patterns,we propose a pattern-based integrated framework for modeling medical treatment processes.A modeling platform is implemented to support the use of treatment patterns,by which the feasibility of our approach is validated.An empirical analysis is discussed based on the coverage rates of treatment patterns.Feedback from interviewed physicians in a Chinese hospital shows that executable medical treatment processes of CPGs provide a convenient way to obtain guidance,thus assisting daily work for medical workers.

Jaynes-Cummings model with intensity-dependent coupling and Schrbdinger cat state

Linear superposition principle is a basic characteristic of quantum mechanics. The quantum interference of matter wave results from this principle. Recently, considerable effort has been devoted to the study of the properties of superpositions of two or more coherent states, i.e. the Schr(?)dinger cat states.It is shown that the superpositions of coherent states have properties different from those of the coherent state, such as the higher-order squeezing, sub-Poissonian distribution, oscillatory photon statistics and antibunching effect, because of the quantum interference between the components of the cat states. The emergence of these non-classical effects makes the study of the Schr(?)
