Abstract

The rapid developments ofbio-technologies and computational methods have evolutionarized the biomedicalresearch.Theenormous amount of data generated from various high-throughput technologiesprovide unprecedented opportunities for advancing medical practice, however, tomake better sense of the data requires the development of novel statistical/computationalmethods.

Inthis talk, I will briefly introduce two on-going projects in my research groupon constructing disease diagnostic models from large-scale biomedical data. Thefirst one is using cell-free DNA methylation profile for disease prediction;the second one is the development of a CADx (Computer-aided diagnosis) systemfor Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease based on retina image.
