On-line and Incremental EM-based Neural Networks: Application to Hospital Utlilization and Gene Expression Data. Artificial neural networks have been widely applied as universal classifiers in many fields, such as biomedicine. However, misunderstanding of fundamental statistical principles, which can cause misleading findings, has been frequently observed in the literature. This project aims to integrate statistical methodologies in neural networks to provide a unified approach to improve its ....On-line and Incremental EM-based Neural Networks: Application to Hospital Utlilization and Gene Expression Data. Artificial neural networks have been widely applied as universal classifiers in many fields, such as biomedicine. However, misunderstanding of fundamental statistical principles, which can cause misleading findings, has been frequently observed in the literature. This project aims to integrate statistical methodologies in neural networks to provide a unified approach to improve its applicability and efficiency in implementation. The system developed from this proposed cross-disciplinary research will be applied to hospital utilization data (hospital morbidity database, Western Australia) and gene expression data (DNA microarrays databases, Harvard University). This collaborative research will advance the international standard of Australian research communities.
