Fundamentals of Machine Learning for Healthcare

Machine learning and artificial intelligence hold the potential to transform healthcare and open up a world of incredible promise. But we will never realize the potential of these technologies unless all stakeholders have basic competencies in both healthcare and machine learning concepts and principles. This course will introduce the fundamental concepts and principles of machine learning as it applies to medicine and healthcare. We will explore machine learning approaches, medical use cases,

• Define important relationships between the fields of machine learning, biostatistics, and traditional computer programming.
• Learn about advanced neural network architectures for tasks ranging from text classification to object detection and segmentation.
• Learn important approaches for leveraging data to train, validate, and test machine learning models.
• Understand how dynamic medical practice and discontinuous timelines impact clinical machine learning application development and deployment.
