Application: Peer community based anomalous behavior detection (Patent ID: US20240161916A1)
The patent filed by Becton Dickinson and Co. describes a system that utilizes a peer network of clinicians interconnected based on shared attributes such as treating the same patients or interacting with the same medical devices. A machine-learning model is applied to identify peer communities within the network, and anomalous behavior by a clinician is detected by comparing their activity pattern to others in the same community, triggering an investigative workflow that includes generating alerts, activating surveillance devices, and isolating medication accessed by the clinician.
The system further includes features such as generating the peer network based on transaction records, assigning weights to edges based on the quantity of shared attributes, and determining anomalous behavior by comparing activity patterns to a norm within the peer community. The machine-learning model used can include neural networks, hierarchical clustering, or other techniques. Additionally, the system can identify multiple peer communities, compare activity patterns across different communities, and initiate investigative workflows based on detected anomalies. The patent also covers a computer-readable medium storing instructions for these operations and an apparatus that can receive indications of anomalous behavior and initiate investigative workflows, particularly in the context of infusion pumps or automated dispensing devices.
