Title of the Talk:New Challenges in Machine Learning: Multiclass-Classification for Risk Predictions in Health Care Applications

Abstract:

Discovering patterns from big data attracts a lot of attention due to its importance in discovering accurate patterns and features that are used in predictions of decision making.

The challenges in big data analytics are the high dimensionality and complexity in data representation analytics especially for on-line feature selection. Granular computing and feature selection on data streams are among the challenge to deal with big data analytics that is used for Decision making. We will discuss these challenges in this talk and provide new projection on ensemble deep learning techniques for on-line health care risk prediction. Different type of data (time series, linguistic values, interval data, etc.) imposes some difficulties to data analytics due to preprocessing and normalization processes which are expensive and difficult when data sets are raw, or imbalanced. We will highlight these issues through project applied to health-care for elderly, by merging heterogeneous metrics from multi-sensing environment providing health care predictions assisting active aging at home. We have utilized ensemble learning as multi-classification techniques on multi-data streams using incremental learning to update data change “concept drift“

Subjectivity (i.e., service personalization) would be examined based on correlations between different contextual structures that are reflecting the framework of personal context, for example in nearest neighbor based correlation analysis fashion. Some of the attributes incompleteness also may lead to affect the approximation accuracy. I present deep learning feature selection in medical application early predictions (heart diseases and others).
