Personalized Medicine and Artificial Intelligence

 

Personalized medicine is an important and active area of clinical research involving high dimensional data. In this talk, we describe some recent design and methodological developments in clinical trials for discovery and evaluation of personalized medicine. Statistical learning tools from artificial intelligence, including machine learning, reinforcement learning and several newer learning methods, are beginning to play increasingly important roles in these areas. We present illustrative examples in treatment of depression and cancer. The new approaches have significant potential to improve health and well being.
