Developing Diagnostic Algorithms from Medical Data

The keeping of electronic medical records has led to an explosion of data and an academic industry that is trying to find patterns that predict illness, for instance based upon people's workplace, lifestyle habits, etc, or based on automated collection of medical data in a hospital setting. In this talk, I will discuss recent developments in algorithms behind such analyses and their applications to health survey, clinical and biomarker data.
