WEARABLE BIOMEDICAL DATA SCIENCE CONSULTING
CONSULTING SERVICES
01 / MACHINE LEARNING / AI
I can help your group harness the power of machine learning and AI to get the most out of your data. Machine learning / AI for biomedical applications is a tricky area that requires a lot of planning and adaptation. With my wealth of experience I can ensure you get the highest quality results.
02 / ALGORITHM DEVELOPMENT
I can create or advise on algorithm development to process raw biomedical data into clinically useful insights. I have been doing this for over 15 years for medical and athletic applications from wearable sensor data using heuristic methods, machine learned methods and AI methods.
03 / VALIDATION
Making sure your output is accurate is very important in the biomedical space. I can help you figure out how to validate your solution and publish the results, so your clients / health boards can be confident in the measurements provided.
04 / BUSINESS STRATEGY
The accuracy and type of machine learning tools that apply to your data have a drastic impact on the final results. I can translate complex machine learning results into understandable and actionable business insights and strategy.
05 / DATA VISUALIZATION
Viewing data is very important to understand what is happening in your system. I can help you build insightful and useful data visualization to help speed up product development and derive novel insights.
06 / STUDY DESIGN
Appropriate study design is the backbone of using AI and machine learning techniques to derive clinically useful insights from biometric data. I can assist you at any stage of this process to make sure you end up with a useful solution.
