Applied Machine Learning and Data Science Capstone Project

Machine Learning for Predicting SIDS Outcomes

Video Pitch:

As part of my Master's at Rice, my capstone research involved applying machine learning to identify cardio-respiratory signatures that predict Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) in mouse models. 

By analyzing complex physiological datasets, my project discovered key patterns that could provide early indicators of mortality, ultimately contributing to advancements in predictive healthcare systems. Furthermore, the project achieved over 85% accuracy in predicting fatal outcomes by developing robust models to analyze these cardiorespiratory signatures. 

This project integrated cutting-edge machine learning techniques with data science tools to process large-scale health data and reveal critical insights into cardio-respiratory interactions. This work contributes to the field of predictive healthcare by identifying critical early warning signals that can improve intervention strategies for infants at risk of SIDS. Its potential impact extends to real-time health monitoring systems that could be implemented in neonatal care units or even by family members through a user-friendly appication. 

 Biomedical Engineering Capstone Project

Telemonitoring Ventricular Assist Device (TVAD) 

Final Presentation:

This assignment involved developing a telemonitoring system for a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) as my bachelor's degree's final project, designed to monitor cardiac function in patients with heart failure.

By integrating physiological sensor data and applying machine learning techniques to predict device responsiveness, we analyzed the system to reduce latency by 10-15%, improving patient outcomes through more responsive monitoring.

The potential impact of this work lies in the enhancement of remote patient monitoring for cardiovascular healthcare, particularly for individuals who rely on LVADs for long-term heart support.
