AI and Big Data Analytics for Health and Bioinformatics

Abstract

With the technological advances that allow for high throughput profiling of biological systems at a low cost. The low cost of data generation is leading us to the "big data" era. The availability of big data provides unprecedented opportunities but also raises new challenges for data mining and analysis. In this talk, I will start will the concepts in the analysis of big data, specifically the AI algorithms. My group has in The Biomedical Informatics Lab (BIL) is a research Centre is the focus of the education, research and development, and human-resource training in heath informatics and bioinformatics at NTU. The mission of BIL is to provide the interdisciplinary environment and training for students and researchers to engage in leading and cutting edge research in bioinformatics, and thereby become a part of the life sciences workforce in Singapore and elsewhere. This talk, by presenting selected research activities, will provide an overview of some of the innovative and creative approaches with the application of AI in big data analytics to address the challenges and solutions in both health and bioinformatics.
