Assignment - Artificial Intelligence Presentation
Task - Developing a narrated PowerPoint presentation describing an aspect of a "big data" application to address a community/population health problem. The goal for the assignment is for you to understand the specific methodologies used for "big data" analysis and examine the potential of big data in improving population health by exploring the feasibility, challenges and/or issues surrounding its application to another setting or scaling up for widespread use.
Select an example of a methodology that is used for a "big data" study in health care. Describe the methodology, the data requirements and the software that is necessary to conduct the analysis. What makes the study a "big data" study: volume, velocity, variety, (variability, veracity, value)? Provide an example of how the method was applied to a clinical, financial and/or administrative problem in health care. What were some of the challenges in conducting the study in your example? What are the recommendations for future use of the methodology? Is this a methodology that could readily be used in a small health care organization, nursing home, physician practice, or other clinical setting that has access to a similar population to improve the health of the population? Did the study use open source or proprietary software? (Note, you will not be expected to understand the statistical analyses, but rather, examine the significance and usefulness of the results). The approach taken in your presentation is whether this method could be used in a "your organization," which happens to be like the one described in your example. Did the example cited provide actionable data?
