This research aims to develop a prediction model for patient disposition in emergency departments, addressing the issue of overcrowding caused by an aging population and rising healthcare costs. The proposed EF-Net model incorporates categorical features into the neural network layer and adds numerical features with embedded categorical features. Combining EF-Net with XGBoost models achieves higher accuracy. The study utilizes the soft voting technique to generate results. In EF-Net, an accuracy of 95.33% was achieved, while the Ensemble Model reached 96%. The analysis shows that EF-Net surpasses existing works in accuracy, AUROC, and F1-Score on the MIMIC-IV-ED dataset, demonstrating its potential as a scalable solution for patient disposition assessment.

The researchers aim to solve overcrowding problems in emergency departments by creating a prediction model. This model will help prioritize patients with more serious health issues. The team uses two models: EF-Net and XGBoost. They combine these models to get better results. The study shows that their new model, EF-Net, is very accurate (95.33%) and performs well compared to other models on a specific dataset.
