My life has been fairly isolated over the last week. I have made advances in my understanding of computer vision replicating the Harris corner detection algorithm, achieving the following result: If you're interested in the mathematical logic and code used to achieve this result download the brief guide I wrote on this here: [harris_corner_detection_readme]. I'm … Continue reading Big data/machine learning is coming to healthcare. And it’s through the smart watch.

Ever since I saw conservation of momentum used … Continue reading Yes but a computer won’t insert the line
Will machine learning replace doctors and nurses?
Even if you’re not into tech development you have probably heard of machine learning. In short machine learning algorithms rewrite a hypothesis when new data is processed revolutionizing data analysis all over the world. A creepy testament is Target superstores who could work out if a female shopper was pregnant based on purchasing trends. They … Continue reading Will machine learning replace doctors and nurses?
Why Machine learning in Medicine?
During my clinical career in emergency medicine, I have made the transition to physics graduate, computer programmer and mathematical modeller. Working with doctors and nurses on the front line whilst doing this has given me the insight as to how front line clinicians view certain concepts. There’s a general misunderstanding on what a physics degree … Continue reading Why Machine learning in Medicine?
