Machine Learning Techniques in Healthcare Industry
Machine Learning techniques are being explored successfully in almost every field like computing science, social science, and intelligence science. These tools and techniques also provide promising applications in the healthcare industry like disease prediction/detection, medical image computing, analysis of Electronic Health Records (EHR), processing of medical documents, extracting genetic information from patients, etc. In this technical talk, I will be discussing the role of machine learning techniques for better prediction/detection of different chronic diseases like diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, etc. Also, will discuss how it will support the patients and candidate patients to monitor and manage the disease at earlier stages. Furthermore, will present and discuss the tools and techniques that are available to support healthcare providers in making better decisions pertaining to different diseases.
