Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports

Biometric technology is a rapidly evolving field with applications that range from access to devices to border crossing and entry/exit processes. Large-scale applications to collect biometric data, such as border crossings result in multimodal biometric databases containing thousands of identities. However, due to human operator error, these databases often contain many instances of image labeling and classification; this is due to the lack of training and throughput pressure that comes with human error. Multiple entries from the same individual may be assigned to a different identity. Rolled fingerprints may be labeled as flat images, a face image entered into a …


Predicting Post-Procedural Complications Using Neural Networks On Mimic-Iii Data, Namratha Mohan Dec 2018

Predicting Post-Procedural Complications Using Neural Networks On Mimic-Iii Data, Namratha Mohan

LSU Master's Theses

The primary focus of this paper is the creation of a Machine Learning based algorithm for the analysis of large health based data sets. Our input was extracted from MIMIC-III, a large Health Record database of more than 40,000 patients. The main question was to predict if a patient will have complications during certain specified procedures performed in the hospital. These events are denoted by the icd9 code 996 in the individuals' health record. The output of our predictive model is a binary variable which outputs the value 1 if the patient is diagnosed with the specific complication or 0 …
