Machine Learning Could Jolt Legal Research — We Just Need the Data – Built In

In federal court, why would one judge waive filing fees 20 percent of the time, while another judge from the very same district waives them some 80 percent of the time?  It’s a curious discrepancy surfaced last year by the research team at SCALES, a project that’s applying machine learning to court-record data so legal researchers…

    Machine learning can help improve predictions of mortality risk – News-Medical.Net

    Researchers at Geisinger have found that a computer algorithm developed using echocardiogram videos of the heart can predict mortality within a year. The algorithm–an example of what is known as machine learning, or artificial intelligence (AI)–outperformed other clinically used predictors, including pooled cohort equations and the Seattle Heart Failure score. The results of the study…

      Using machine learning to identify patients with a mix of psychotic and depressive symptoms – News-Medical.Net

      A way of using machine learning to more accurately identify patients with a mix of psychotic and depressive symptoms has been developed by researchers at the University of Birmingham. Patients with depression or psychosis rarely experience symptoms of purely one or the other illness. Historically, this has meant that mental health clinicians give a diagnosis…
