İş dünyasının giderek karmaşıklaşan ve dinamik hale gelen yapısı, farklı disiplinlerden gelen bireylerin aynı örgütsel çatı altında aynı amaçlar doğrultusunda etkin ve verimli çalışmalarını zorunlu hale getirmiştir. Bu sebeple de, işletmenin tüm işlevlerini bütüncül bir bakış açısı ile değerlendirebilecek ve bu hususları faaliyet gösterilen ekosistemin diğer dinamikleri ile uyumlu yönetebilecek bireylere duyulan ihtiyaç artmıştır. Ayrıca, teknoloji alanında yaşanan baş döndürücü gelişmeler rekabetin sahasını genişletmiş ve özellikle üretim, dağıtım, pazarlama ve finans alanlarında entegre bilgi birikimine sahip, yönetsel becerisi yüksek insan kaynağına önemli ölçüde bir talep doğurmuştur.

    An explanatory machine learning framework for studying pandemics: The case of COVID-19 emergency department readmissions
    (Elsevier, 2022) Davazdahemami, Behrooz; Zolbanin, Hamed M.; Delen, Dursun; Delen, Dursun; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü
    One of the major challenges that confront medical experts during a pandemic is the time required to identify and validate the risk factors of the novel disease and to develop an effective treatment protocol. Traditionally, this process involves numerous clinical trials that may take up to several years, during which strict preventive measures must be in place to control the outbreak and reduce the deaths. Advanced data analytics techniques, however, can be leveraged to guide and speed up this process. In this study, we combine evolutionary search algorithms, deep learning, and advanced model interpretation methods to develop a holistic exploratory- predictive-explanatory machine learning framework that can assist clinical decision-makers in reacting to the challenges of a pandemic in a timely manner. The proposed framework is showcased in studying emergency department (ED) readmissions of COVID-19 patients using ED visits from a real-world electronic health records database. After an exploratory feature selection phase using genetic algorithm, we develop and train a deep artificial neural network to predict early (i.e., 7-day) readmissions (AUC = 0.883). Lastly, a SHAP model is formulated to estimate additive Shapley values (i.e., importance scores) of the features and to interpret the magnitude and direction of their effects. The findings are mostly in line with those reported by lengthy and expensive clinical trial studies.

    A critical analysis of COVID-19 research literature: Text mining approach
    (Elsevier, 2021) Zengul, Ferhat D.; Zengul, Ayşe G.; Mugavero, Michael J.; Oner, Nurettin; Özaydın, Bünyamin; Delen, Dursun; Willig, James H.; Kennedy, Kierstin C.; Cimino, James; Delen, Dursun; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İşletme Bölümü
    Objective: Among the stakeholders of COVID-19 research, clinicians particularly experience difficulty keeping up with the deluge of SARS-CoV-2 literature while performing their much needed clinical duties. By revealing major topics, this study proposes a text-mining approach as an alternative to navigating large volumes of COVID-19 literature. Materials and methods: We obtained 85,268 references from the NIH COVID-19 Portfolio as of November 21. After the exclusion based on inadequate abstracts, 65,262 articles remained in the final corpus. We utilized natural language processing to curate and generate the term list. We applied topic modeling analyses and multiple correspondence analyses to reveal the major topics and the associations among topics, journal countries, and publication sources. Results: In our text mining analyses of NIH’s COVID-19 Portfolio, we discovered two sets of eleven major research topics by analyzing abstracts and titles of the articles separately. The eleven major areas of COVID-19 research based on abstracts included the following topics: 1) Public Health, 2) Patient Care & Outcomes, 3) Epidemiologic Modeling, 4) Diagnosis and Complications, 5) Mechanism of Disease, 6) Health System Response, 7) Pandemic Control, 8) Protection/Prevention, 9) Mental/Behavioral Health, 10) Detection/Testing, 11) Treatment Options. Further analyses revealed that five (2,3,4,5, and 9) of the eleven abstract-based topics showed a significant correlation (ranked from moderate to weak) with title-based topics. Conclusion: By offering up the more dynamic, scalable, and responsive categorization of published literature, our study provides valuable insights to the stakeholders of COVID-19 research, particularly clinicians.
