Agenda
We are interested in developing machine learning methods and systems using heterogeneous real-world data for applications in health. This includes electronic health records data and medical imaging for medical diagnostics and prognostics. Methodologies of interest pertain to multi-modal fusion, representation learning, and augmenting machine and human decision-making, to achieve high performance and utility in clinical practice.
Our research agenda consists of two interrelated tracks:
