Description

For its January 2010 meeting, the ISDS Research Committee hosted a topical webinar on the "Applications of Bayesian Statistics for Biosurveillance," to address questions including:

  1. How can I combine recent trends with historical data behavior for improved population health visualization?
  2. How can Bayesian statistics be used to make classical alerting algorithms more relevant to current data?
  3. How can analytical methods clarify the use of newly available, multidimensional, clinical evidence from electronic health records and other data sources?
