Refining Al Methods for Medical Diagnostics Management

Posted onAuthorTapan P. Bagchi

Abstract This paper extends the utility of support vector machines—a recent innovation in AI being adopted for cancer diagnostics—by analytically modelling the impact of imperfect class labelling of training data. It uses ROC computations to study the SVM’s ability to classify new examples correctly even in the presence of misclassified data in training examples. It Read More …

Justifying Six Sigma Projects in Manufacturing Management
