[ Research ]
- Data analysis, such as feature extraction, dimension reduction, data transformation and classification, with focus on biomedical data.
- Signal processing of biological signals such as fetal heart rate (FHR) and holter ECG.
- Development of diagnostic tools for clinical using methods of artificial intelligence
- Use of hospital information systems (developed within the group) as a gateway to more precise understanding of clinical reasoning
