Syllabus

WEEK 1
Permutation feature importance on the MIMIC critical care database
This is an advanced exercise/lesson that combines knowledge from the three earlier modules: 1) 'Data mining of Clinical Databases' to query the MIMIC database, 2) 'Deep learning in Electronic Health Records' to pre-process EHR and build deep learning models and 3) 'Explainable deep learning models for healthcare' to explain the models decision. In particular, permutation feature importance is implemented and applied on MIMIC-III extracted datasets. The technique is applied both on logistic regression and on an LSTM model. The explanations derived are global explanations of the model.

WEEK 2
LIME on the MIMIC critical care database
This is an advanced exercise/lesson that combines knowledge from the three earlier modules: 1) 'Data mining of Clinical Databases' to query the MIMIC database, 2) 'Deep learning in Electronic Health Records' to pre-process EHR and build deep learning models and 3) 'Explainable deep learning models for healthcare' to explain the models decision. In particular, LIME is applied on MIMIC-III extracted datasets. The technique is applied on both logistic regression and an LSTM model . The explanations derived are local explanations of the model.

WEEK 3
Grad-CAM on the MIMIC critical care database
This is an advanced exercise/lesson that combines knowledge from the three earlier modules: 1) 'Data mining of Clinical Databases' to query the MIMIC database, 2) 'Deep learning in Electronic Health Records' to pre-process EHR and build deep learning models and 3) 'Explainable deep learning models for healthcare' to explain the models decision. In particular, GradCam is implemented and applied on an LSTM model that predicts mortality based on MIMIC-III extracted datasets. The explanations derived are local explanations of the model.

Text Retrieval and Search Engines (Coursera)

Recent years have seen a dramatic growth of natural language text data, including web pages, news articles, scientific literature, emails, enterprise documents, and social media such as blog articles, forum posts, product reviews, and tweets. Text data are unique in that they are usually generated directly by humans rather than a computer system or sensors, and are thus especially valuable for discovering knowledge about people’s opinions and preferences, in addition to many other kinds of knowledge that we encode in text.

A Life of Happiness and Fulfillment (Coursera)

What are the determinants of a happy and fulfilling life? This is surely one of life’s biggest questions, and a question that has interested many of our ancestors. Buddha famously gave up his kingdom in search of happiness. Several Greek philosophers (from Aristotle to Epicurus and Plato to Socrates) had their own views on what it takes to be happy. And of course, we all have our own theories about happiness too.
