At this webinar you will learn how historical data is used to build statistical models which help to identify individuals at risk of a certain disease, based on the similarity of their historical claims with others whose history and outcome is known.
|
The objective is that early intervention for people at risk may delay or even prevent the onset of the disease. We present a case study of developing the models for type 2 diabetes mellitus.
|
The entire process starting with raw claims data, building regression models with diagnostics, solving for coefficients and computing accuracy measures, is completed in 30 minutes for population sizes of over 2 million people with 2,000 predictors in a Netezza TwinFin 12 database running Fuzzy Logix DB Lytix in-database analytics library.
