Google DeepMind plan within 5 years of artificial intelligence for the area

Google DeepMind plan within 5 years of artificial intelligence for the area of health

Recently, more and more information: Google algorithms of artificial intelligence in its DeepMind is more used in medical and health fields, including in the next 5 years, using machine learning techniques for dealing with United Kingdom NHS (national health service) data.

New Scientist website DeepMind the memorandum of understanding with the London Royal Free NHS Trust. Which shows that both sides will reach a "comprehensive, mutually beneficial cooperation, expand the level of cooperation activities, maximize the potential for innovation and transformation project".

That help will include cooperation in medical efficacy, patient safety and improvements in cost optimization. Among them, cost optimization are currently free of sustained pressure on the NHS. British demand for NHS services is on the rise, but the United Kingdom Government is considering cuts in this budget. Disney case

This memorandum lists several "mutually beneficial". Both sides agreed that cooperation over the next 5 years, these areas have potential. That only a portion of the binding nature of the memorandum, signed on January 28 this year.

Possible areas of future cooperation include the development of hospital support systems, such as bedding, financial control and demand management software products, as well as messaging and task management tool for junior doctors. (Message service area now NHS staff similar to informal use Whatsapp application to quickly share information, but that is considered detrimental to the confidentiality of patient data)

Both sides also said that hope to develop real-time prediction of health technology. This is the original focus of cooperation (that is, an application named Streams). Both sides will use a range of health data to determine disease progression and death in patients with, and the need to treat risk.

Other areas of mutual concern including the identification of medical images, even monitor the heartbeat of the fetus in pregnant.

DeepMind was mentioned at the beginning of this memorandum have the ability to develop "robust universal learning algorithm." Disney case

Subsequently the memorandum also points out that DeepMind in cooperation with Royal Free NHS Trust is one of the purposes "under the appropriate regulatory and ethical permits" access "data for machine learning".

Both sides, designed the first Streams without the use of any artificial intelligence technology, there is no integrated DeepMind developed any algorithms. The core software prepared by the NHS.

But the Memorandum made it clear that, machine learning techniques applied to data is the future of public health objectives.
