    A boxplot of the predicted LOS in days. The box represents the interquartile range (IQR). The edges of each box represent the 1st and 3rd quartiles. The horizontal lines within boxes are the medians; “+” represents the mean. The maximum length of each whisker is 1.5 times the IQR. Circles are outliers according to the 1.5 times the IQR criterion.
