Behnaz Abdollahi is a U of L PhD candidate with practical, real world experience in our city’s healthcare circles regarding Date Mining and Machine Learning.\u00a0 She has studied and developed several practical clinical applications: automatically detecting vessel ranking of tumor, analyzing survival rate of lung cancer patients, and analyzing lung transplant acceptance patients. She has been published in scientific journals, and given presentations at workshops and conferences across the country.\u00a0 In addition to her research, she is a software engineer and was working in industry before starting her PhD. She is expert in many programming languages such as: R, Python, Octave, Java and Matlab. Behnaz is a dedicated and motivated technical woman, and this session is not to be missed. She is a PhD candidate at University of Louisville graduating Spring 2015, beginning this phase of education with a fellowship award to fully pay her tuition and stipend.<\/p>\n

Machine learning techniques are widely used to model complicated datasets that statistical methods\u00a0 cannot analyze them. These techniques learn a mathematical model from previous instances of data and predict the behavior of future and unknown inputs.\u00a0 Healthcare datasets are one of the most complicated datasets.\u00a0 Several factors need to be considered\u00a0 for every patient. Conventional statistical techniques are not good enough to convert the raw data into reusable knowledge.\u00a0 The challenges also include the fact that measuring some of the disease factors are costly, and the volume of data is massive. Come learn what has been done in recent times in current projects in our community.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
