Powerful decision-making tools to deal with complex information
Imperfect information in complex analytics
The health care industry depends a great deal on decision-making analytics for planning, management, clinical-decision making, and improving service. In any complex decision-making process that has to consider several factors, there can be flaws in the processing of information. This poses a challenge for healthcare professionals who need to interpret the analysis and make important decisions while having to consider all possible outcomes. These professionals can benefit from robust decision-making tools, which can offer an invaluable solution to various decision-making challenges in the health care sector.
What’s the research about?
Who will gain from this research?
The potential benefit from an online tool for robust-decision making is limitless. Ben Amor’s work could improve a range of real-world decision problems in healthcare, including the ranking of hospitals, sorting drugs for reimbursement applications, and clustering therapy pathways for oncology treatments. Moreover, a cloud-based tool can benefit many researchers and professionals, beyond the health care industry, like risk assessment, innovation, and sustainable development.
