As part of the School of Science and Technology Biomedical Sciences Research Centre Seminar Series, Phillipa Spencer, Defence Science and Technology Laboratory presents: Complexity Giving Back: Bio-inspired algorithms solving large scale biological data problems.

Abstract

Biologically inspired algorithms such as artificial neural networks are now being utilised to tackle clinical problems with diagnosis. They are progressing towards decision support for doctors dealing with viral versus bacterial infections and hard to diagnose conditions like sepsis. This talk walks through some of the work being undertaken in defence, in conjunction with the US funding body DTRA, to enable algorithms inspired by biology to give insight back to biology.

This seminar is hosted by Professor Graham Ball

All welcome.
