We have built a proof-of-concept tool which will help assurers, data scientists and clinicians to evaluate AI classifiers. We call this the RISE tool, it utilises LLM's, AI Image Generators and an interactive plot to allow users to easily evaluate image classifiers. We carried out careful experimentation to ensure its effectiveness, and plan to continue this research in the future.
The NHS England Data Science team, as well as a range of other analysts from across the organisation, attended an AI Hackathon at Microsoft, organised by the Data Science Team together with Microsoft and Kainos, with the key stakeholders being the NHS Websites Services Team. In this article, the author shares her experiences at the event.
We have been building a proof-of-concept tool that scores the privacy risk of free text healthcare data. To use our tool effectivly, users need a basic understanding of the entities within their dataset which may contribute to privacy risk.
There are various tools for annotating and exploring free text data. The author explores some of these tools and discusses his experiences.
Over recent years, larger, more data-intensive Language Models (LMs) with greatly enhanced performance have been developed. The enhanced functionality has driven widespread interest in adoption of LMs in Healthcare, owing to the large amounts of unstructured text data generated within healthcare pathways.
However, with this heightened interest, it becomes critical to comprehend the inherent privacy risks associated with these LMs, given the sensitive nature of Healthcare data. This PhD Internship project sought to understand more about the Privacy-Risk Landscape for healthcare LMs through a literature review and exploration of some technical applications.
Reproducible analytical pipelines (RAP) help ensure all published statistics meet the highest standards of transparency and reproducibility. Sam Hollings and Alistair Bullward share their insights on adopting RAP and give advice to those starting out.
Reproducible analytical pipelines (RAP) are automated statistical and analytical processes that apply to data analysis. It’s a key part of national strategy and widely used in the civil service.
Over the past year, we’ve been going through a change programme and adopting RAP in our Data Services directorate. We’re still in the early stages of our journey, but already we’ve accomplished a lot and had some hard-learnt lessons.
