The pitfalls and potential of using ML to personalize patient treatments | AI FOR GOOD DISCOVERY
In this talk, we discuss the idea of learning how to individualize patient treatments based on data such as electronic medical records, patient generated data, and clinical trial data. We present the notion of causality and explain why “ordinary” supervised machine learning is insufficient in many cases for properly learning individualized treatments, and why learning such treatment is strictly more challenging. A framework is presented for evaluating whether a given clinical problem and dataset are amenable for learning individualized treatments, as well as two case studies: one in chronic diabetes care and one in chronic heart failure care.
