Exploring biomedical and clinical applications of machine learning.
The Luo Lab
The Luo Lab at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine is broadly interested in the research of multi-modal machine learning, deep learning, vision/image processing, natural language processing, multi-omics, evaluating AI (fairness, transparency, bias), exploring the impact of AI (social, economic, cultural), with a focus on biomedical and clinical applications.
Some of our recent works are on multi-modal machine learning (including deep learning) models applied to better understanding complex diseases, informing targeted therapies, improving patient outcomes, and reducing bias and disparity in health care. The common theme of these works aims at building AI/ML models that improve both prediction accuracy and interpretability (stronger requirement than explainability), by exploring relational information in each data modality.
