[introductory/intermediate] Trustworthy Machine Learning for Human Health and Medicine

Summary

Recent biomedical data deluge has fundamentally transformed biomedical research into a data science frontier. The unprecedented accumulation of biomedical data presents a unique yet challenging opportunity to develop novel methods leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning to further our understanding of biology and advance medicine. In this talk, I will first introduce the cutting-edge research in characterizing human genetic variation and their associations with human health and disease. I will then present recent developments in trustworthy machine learning including our work on trustworthy machine learning covering topics in robustness, interpretability, fairness, security, and privacy of models as well as data.

Syllabus

A brief introduction to human genetics and genomic medicine, introduction to machine learning in biomedicine, as well as trustworthy machine learning covering topics on robustness, interpretability, fairness, security, and privacy.
