Title: Data Mining hybrid approach for Prediction of critical illness among the patients.

Abstract: The methods to enhance clinical judgment would be of tremendous benefit to medical practitioners & doctors, to start the immediate treatment on illness. The ability of medical practitioners to predict an illness is depending on certain parameters extracted from the laboratory & physical examinations of patients, & this judgment of medical practitioners will be on the trial & error scheme i.e. the judgment may not be 100% true in every case.

We developed the model which will give the prediction of critical illness on the basis of various health parameters gathered by medical practitioners during the physical & laboratory examinations of patients. This model will help the medical practitioners in the judgment process.

Started NVIDIA CUDA Teaching Center at department in association with NVIDIA

Details of donations received from NVIDIA are as follows:

Academic Year Donations in terms of Approximate cost in Rs.

2015-16 Books and GPU Cards 1,20,000/-

2016-17 GPU Cards 60,000/-

Developed Virtualization laboratory in the department.

Features of Virtualization laboratory are as follows:

• New computers are not purchased; the old computers available in the institute are utilized,

• which save the cost for purchase of new computers, which is approx. 24* 50000 i.e Rs.12,00,000/-

• The resources (like no. of cores, RAM, Hard disk) of workstations & server machine are used for old computers, which gives the feel of using the new & highly configured machines.

• Generally public clouds available on Internet are used to deploy projects, After development of laboratory projects are deployed on private cloud of department.

• Multi-fold increase in utilization of current IT infrastructure due to the benefits of pooling, virtualization and multi-tenancy that Cloud brings in.
