This week I completed my final immersion presentation for the lung cancer feedback and received good feedback that will help guide my study further. The discussion primarily revolved around determining the impact of this work - not just in India but also in the United States. I believe this will be very helpful when I am writing up my paper. I also got feedback about considering statistical methods for my model instead of machine learning methods. I had discussed area under the operating curve metrics (AUC) which are traditionally used for machine learning models. However, after the presentation and feedback, I realized that simpler models such as logistical regression models may be a better extension to the PLCO model and reflect lung cancer incidence in India more accurately.
With Dr. Prince, my clinical mentor, I worked on doing some more image segmentation and marking the gluteus maximus on all MRIs. This will now be used to improve the training of the AI model and use it to recognize features that were not previously recognisable.
