Project

Comparison of machine learning and statistics for medical applications

The PhD work consists of the use of data mining methodology and/or the development of new algorithms for medical data. Extra emphasis will be placed on the comparison with conventional statistical methods, in which the added value of machine learning is analysed. Among others, classification, regression and survival analysis problems will be investigated, for which different datasets are available.
