Detection of easily missed hidden patterns with fast processing power makes machine learning (ML) indispensable to today's healthcare system. Though many ML applications have already been discovered and many are still under investigation, only a few have been adopted by current healthcare systems. As a result, there exists an enormous opportunity in healthcare system for ML but distributed information, scarcity of properly arranged and easily explainable documentation in rela...

Deep learning and other big data technologies have over time become very powerful and accurate. There are algorithms and models developed that have near human accuracy in their task. In health care, the amount of data available is massive and hence, these technologies have a great scope in health care. This paper reviews a few interesting contributions to the field specifically to medical imaging, genomics and patient health records.

A consequence of the fragmented and siloed healthcare landscape is that patient care (and data) is split along multitude of different facilities and computer systems and enabling interoperability between these systems is hard. The lack interoperability not only hinders continuity of care and burdens providers, but also hinders effective application of Machine Learning (ML) algorithms. Thus, most current ML algorithms, designed to understand patient care and facilitate clinica...

The COVID-19 pandemic and other ongoing health crises have underscored the need for prompt healthcare services worldwide. The traditional healthcare system, centered around hospitals and clinics, has proven inadequate in the face of such challenges. Intelligent wearable devices, a key part of modern healthcare, leverage Internet of Things technology to collect extensive data related to the environment as well as psychological, behavioral, and physical health. However, managin...

The main aim of this paper is to provide a deep analysis on the research field of healthcare data analytics. This paper is analyzing the previous studies and works in this research area, as well as highlighting some of guidelines and gaps. This study has used seven popular databases and selected most relevant papers, in order to conduct this paper. The paper has listed some data analytics tools and techniques that have been used to improve healthcare performance in many areas...

In this manuscript, we present an argument that machine learning, a subfield of artificial intelligence, can drive improvement in value-based health care through reducing error in clinical decision making. Much of what has been previously published on machine learning in medicine represent single-use or proof-of-concept cases, as well as broad reviews of the advantages and limitations of machine learning. It is timely to look at the broader strategy for artificial intelligenc...

The global need for effective disease diagnosis remains substantial, given the complexities of various disease mechanisms and diverse patient symptoms. To tackle these challenges, researchers, physicians, and patients are turning to machine learning (ML), an artificial intelligence (AI) discipline, to develop solutions. By leveraging sophisticated ML and AI methods, healthcare stakeholders gain enhanced diagnostic and treatment capabilities. However, there is a scarcity of re...

From medical charts to national census, healthcare has traditionally operated under a paper-based paradigm. However, the past decade has marked a long and arduous transformation bringing healthcare into the digital age. Ranging from electronic health records, to digitized imaging and laboratory reports, to public health datasets, today, healthcare now generates an incredible amount of digital information. Such a wealth of data presents an exciting opportunity for integrated m...

Accurate real-time monitoring systems of influenza outbreaks help public health officials make informed decisions that may help save lives. We show that information extracted from cloud-based electronic health records databases, in combination with machine learning techniques and historical epidemiological information, have the potential to accurately and reliably provide near real-time regional predictions of flu outbreaks in the United States.

Clinicians decisions are becoming more and more evidence-based meaning in no other field the big data analytics so promising as in healthcare. Due to the sheer size and availability of healthcare data, big data analytics has revolutionized this industry and promises us a world of opportunities. It promises us the power of early detection, prediction, prevention and helps us to improve the quality of life. Researchers and clinicians are working to inhibit big data from having ...
