Abstract

Medical data becomes available as part of normal medical practice in hospitals, or in research environments as part of controlled experiments. We will discuss the general approach of using machine learning and data science to create novel findings and predictions from biomedical data and electronic health records. We will describe some of our research case studies in the analysis of cancer genomics data and in diagnostic prediction in neonatal intensive care unit. These case studies will highlight the intertwining of data science with the medical domain in order to create novel and useful knowledge to benefit medical science. Time allowing, I will discuss an experimental prototype of photograhic foot imaging device and the possible future development towards a system for assesssing the state of feet in diabetes patients.
