Louvain Bionics Symposium 2023

Louvain Bionics

UCLouvain King Baudouin Auditoriums

The Louvain Bionics, interdisciplinary center of expertise, organizes the annual symposium aiming at bringing together clinicians, engineers and neuroscientists interested in the fields of science and technology, medical sciences and humanities sciences research to improve patient care by boosting knowledge on how technology can best assist the human body. Registration is required and abstract (for the poster session) can be submitted <a href="https://forms.gle/GQEdznKRxpDTNEEz5" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here </a>until March 28, 2023. T﻿he symposium will take place at the auditorium Roi Baudouin C (Entrance F of the Rosalind Franklin tour)

Agenda

Machine-learning, which can learn to predict given labeled data, bares many promises for medical applications. And yet, experience shows that predictors that looked promising most often fail to bring the expected medical benefits. One reason is that they are evaluated detached from actual usage and medical outcomes. And yet, test running predictive models on actual medical decisions can be costly and dangerous. How do we bridge the gap? By improving machine-learning model evaluation. First, the metrics used to measure prediction error must capture as well as possible the cost-benefit tradeoffs of the final usage. Second, the evaluation procedure must really put models to the test: on a representative data sample, and accounting for uncertainty in model evaluation.
