Machine learning for healthcare research
FY 2021-22
Summary
Predicting the probability of outcomes for patients is important for medical decision making. For example, know which patients are at higher risk of death can inform which patients should be treated more aggressively. Machine learning methods are methods from the field of Computer Science that can be used for predicting patient outcomes. There is growing interest in using machine learning methods to predict patient outcomes. The objective of this research is to improve the use of machine learning methods for predicting patient outcomes.
