Identification of hearth sounds for the analysis of cardiac pathology using machine learning
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a leading cause of mortality globally, significantly affecting patient quality of life and imposing considerable demands on healthcare systems. Chronic heart failure (CHF), a common outcome of CVDs, represents a growing health burden with an increasing incidence. Accurate and early identification of CVDs is critical for …
Explainable machine learning techniques for applications in life sciences
As ecological, agricultural, and biological disciplines face mounting challenges like biodiversity loss, food chain disruption, and climate change, leveraging machine learning (ML) to process complex and heterogeneous data becomes increasingly vital. This dissertation explores the potential of ML in combination with explainability approaches for enhancing research in life sciences, specifically …
Exploiting domain knowledge in predictive learning from food and nutrition data
Human knowledge about food and nutrition has evolved drastically with time. With food and nutrition-related data being mass produced and easily accessible, the next step is to use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to translate data into knowledge. The majority of AI research is model-driven, and classical Machine Learning (ML) pipelines concentrate …
