Abstract
Health informatics primarily means dealing with the methodologies that help to acquire, store, and use information in health and medicine. Large database including heterogeneous and complex data of healthcare can be very beneficial but it is difficult for humans to interpret such a “big data.” With such a large dataset, machine learning (ML) algorithms can work very well in predicting the disease and treatment methods. ML algorithms include learning from past experience and making the predictions and decisions for the current problems. There are many challenges that are encountered while applying ML in healthcare and mostly in healthcare applications where dataset is very complex and is of varied type (ranging from texts to scans). A possible alternative is the use of interactive ML where doctors can be taken in loop. Hence, an integrated and extensive approach is required for application of ML in health informatics. This chapter deals with the various types of ML techniques, approaches, challenges, and its future scope in healthcare informatics. Further, these techniques can be used to make a model for quick and precise healthcare discovery.
