Countdown Regression: Sharp and Calibrated Survival Predictions

1 code implementation21 Jun 2018 Anand Avati, Tony Duan, Sharon Zhou, Kenneth Jung, Nigam H. Shah, Andrew Ng

Probabilistic survival predictions from models trained with Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) can have high, and sometimes unacceptably high variance.

Improving Palliative Care with Deep Learning

no code implementations17 Nov 2017 Anand Avati, Kenneth Jung, Stephanie Harman, Lance Downing, Andrew Ng, Nigam H. Shah

The algorithm is a Deep Neural Network trained on the EHR data from previous years, to predict all-cause 3-12 month mortality of patients as a proxy for patients that could benefit from palliative care.
